Do We Ask Too Many questions?

As I mentioned several posts-ago that I am reading The Creed of The Pious Predecessors: The People of Hadeeth by Aboo 'Uthmaan Islmaa'ell ibn 'Abdurrahmaan As-Saaboonee. Already, I have read the book in its entirety, but I decided to make it a three-round read; the second read for taking notes and the third for memorizing some, but not all of the important ayat from the Qurans, hadeeths and statements of the salaf pertaining to aqeedah. While taking notes on the chapter entitled The Qur'aan is the Speech of Allah and It is Not Created, I was forced to stop and read, re-read and read again one particular quote:
13 Ibn Jareer said: I heard a group of my Companions, who were so numerous, that I am unagle to remember their names, they all related from Imaam Ahmad, radiyahllaahu 'anhu, that he used to say:
"One who says that my recitation of the Qur'aan is created, then he is from the Jahmiyyah. One who says that it is not created, is an innovator."



For clarification, the Jahmiyyah is a particular group upon innovation, some scholars even call them unbelievers. However this statement is rather perplexing. But, I didn't understand what he was getting at. So, I read the translators note in the footnotes and it said:
"Related by 'Abdullah ibn Ahmad in as-Sunnah[181-1885] and at-Tabaree in Sareeh us-Sunnah [30-33]. The saying of the Salaf is that the Qur'ann which is written on paper, memorised in the hearts and recited upon the tongues, is the uncreated Speech of Allah. However, due to the fact that the human voice and the movement of ones tongue, are created actions (see chapter 16), the innovators said ambiguously that my recitation of the Qur'aan is created. This can lead to the previous saying that the Qur'aan itself is created. So the scholors such as Imaam Ahmad warned against this statement."

Okay, yeah that is stated the first part of his statement, when he referred to the jahmiyyah, right? But what did the second part: "One who says that it is not created, is an innovator" mean?
I continued reading and taking notes then in the next chapter that discussed Allah Istiwaa Over his throne, I cam across two important statements. The first being from Imaam Malik related from Ja'far ibn Maimoon that some asked the imaam about the istawaa and he replied in one narration:

"Al-Istawaa is know and how it is, is not know. Eemaan in it is obligatory and question it is an innovation. I do not perceive you except as a misguided one."

The second statement found in the footnotes is declared by Ibn Taimiyyah as saheeh in al-Fatawaa al-Hamawiyyah that Ibn Khuzaiman said: "I say, one who confirms that by believing in the book of Allaah and the ahadeeth of the Messenger of Allaah, (Sallaahu wa Salaam), entrusting their nature toAllah and his Messenger and does not get involved in trying to interpret and delve too deep in this matter, then he is a Muslim. . . However, one who rejects this after having knowledge then he is on a path other than that of the as-Salaf us-Salaliheen because he gave priority to his intellect over the text. Then his affair is upto Allaah and we seek refudge with Allaah from misguidence and heresy."

In each chapter, the imaam provides statements from the people of hadeeth that instruct us not to ask the questions why and how. And in fact doing so is an act of innovation. Later on the in the book, the story of a companion named Sabeegh of the tribe of Tameem who was punnished for going around asking other companions like Umar Al-Khattah randome question about the meaning of this verse and that verse from the Qur'aan. After some time, Umar ordered that the man be whipped one hundred times and confined to a room. After he was released he was whipped another one hundred times and had to be carried away, after which he was prevented from attending any gatherings until he swore that what ever had come over him was gone. After some time, he started up again and again he was beaten. Finally, he swore to stop. This story was related by Yahya ibn Sa-eed from Sa'eed inb al-Musayyab.

And finally al-Awzaa'ee, Sufyaan and Maalik were asked to describe the Attributes of Allah and the seeing them in the hereafter: They all said:

"Treat it how it comes, without saying how."

Masha'Allah
