THE TAWIL OF IMAM AL-BUKHARIYY

Al-Imam Al-Bukhariyy[1]in his book Sahih Al-Bukhariyy, in Volume 6 Page 112 said:

كُلُّ شَيْءٍ هَالِكٌ إِلَّا وَجْهَهُ» إِلَّا مُلْكَهُ»

which means: “Everything is annihilated except His Wajh” means: “Except His Dominion”.

Allah subhanhu wa ta^ala revealed in Surah Al-Qasas (S28) Ayah 88:

كُلُّ شَىْءٍ هَالِكٌ إِلَّا وَجْهَهُۥ

kullu shayin halikun illa wajhah

The true meaning of wajh in this verse is the Dominion. Which means, the Dominion of Allah does not vanish, this is an Attribute of Allah. Regardless to what happens to the Earth and the Sky on the Day of Judgement, the Dominion of Allah does not vanish. This is how Al-Bukhariyy interpreted this, in his book AsSahih.
