Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: The Kalbites' statement regarding the speech of Allah the Exalted is that it is a report of Allah's speech. Is the meaning of this that Jibril looked at Allah and then reported this Qur'an from Him?
Answer:
The meaning of this is that Allah created in Jibril the faculty of speech, so he expresses the mental speech by which they describe Allah. They describe Allah with mental speech that subsists in Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He). Jibril expresses this, the mental speech. Glorified is Allah from what they say. Yes.
