Ibn 'Abd Rabbih al-Andalusi (AH 246-328) says:
الحمد لله الأوّل بلا ابتداء، الآخر بلا انتهاء؛ المنفرد بقدرته، المتعالي في سلطانه؛ الذي لا تحويه الجهات ولا تنعته الصّفات؛ ولا تدركه العيون، ولا تبلغه الظنّون؛ الباديء بالإحسان، العائد بالامتنان؛ الدالّ على بقائه بفناء خلقه، وعلى قدرته بعجز كلّ شيء سواه؛ المغتفر إساءة المذنب بعفوه، وجهل المسيء بحمله؛ الذي جعل معرفته اضطرارا، وعبادته اختيارا؛ وخلق الخلق من [بين] ناطق معترف بوحدانيّته، وصامت متخشّع لربوبيّته؛ لا يخرج شيء عن قدرته، ولا يعزب عن رؤيته؛ الذي قرن بالفضل رحمته، وبالعدل عذابه
Praise be to God, who is the first without beginning, and the last without end, who is alone in His Power and transcendent in His authority; who is not limited by directions and whose attributes cant be described, who is not perceived by eyes, and not attained by thoughts; who initiates beneficence, and gives again with graciousness; who shows evidence of his eternity by the passing away of his creatures, and of His Power by the incapacity of everything other than him; who forgives the misdeeds of the sinner by His pardon, and the ignorance of the ill-doer by His forbearance; who has made knowledge of Him an obligation and his Worship a choice; who created creatures, some of whom recognize his unicity and some are silent and submissive to his His Lordship; nothing is beyond His power, and nothing escapes His vision; who associates mercy with His bounty, and justice with His Punishment
(Iqd al-Farid: Vol.1: Page 3)
Imam adh-Dhahabi says about him in ''Siyar A'lam an-Nubala'' (Vol.15, p.284):
