Ahsan Allahu Alaikum, surah Thariyat ayah 47 (وَٱلسَّمَآءَ بَنَيْنَـٰهَا بِأَيْي۟دٍۢ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ ) the tafseer of this ayah in ibn katheer said the hands mean power and listed reports from the salaf, normally we would leave as hands as it befits Allah but are there exceptions like this?

Ustadh AbdulAziz al-Haqqan
No no this is a different word for aad ya'udu 'aidan, not from the word yad meaning hand.
