Is there a difference between will (mashiyah) and intention (iradah)?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is there a difference between will (mashiyah) and intention (iradah)?

Answer:
Yes, intention (iradah) is broader than will (mashiyah), because intention (iradah) is divided into two types: cosmic intention (iradah kawniyyah) and religious, legislative intention (iradah diniyyah shar'iyyah), whereas will (mashiyah) is only cosmic (kawniyyah), yes.
