Question:
This brother, O Shaykh Salih, says: Tell us about the will and its types?
Answer:
The will is of two types: cosmic will and legislative will. The cosmic will must occur; Allah may love it and be pleased with it, or He may not love it and not be pleased with it. As for the legislative will, Allah loves it. The legislative will is what Allah loves, (Glorified and Exalted is He); it may occur or it may not occur, unlike the cosmic will, which must occur. Yes.
