I agree with you!. The sahih "Translation" that has these things is wrong. In the Sahih Muslim and Al Bukhary, it mentions ahadiths that have more than one meaning Such as hadith anuzool, you can not translate that hadith. You can not say Allah has a face or he laughs!! But in the Arabic language you can say things that would mean what befits to Allah such as hadith annuzool, it means that Allah orders and angel to descend, you don't say that Allah comes down, for Allah exists without a place, he does not need it.
So for you and for the rest of the sunni brothers, if there's books that are translated like that, it is not translated by true scholars. This is a fact. This is one of the problems that is happening between Muslims. People, check your references, who is the scholar that said so and so, where are the prooves in Al Qur'an..
Subhanallah. I will soon have a post about Ayat of Qur'an Muhkam and Mutashabih.
