Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Yes. The Shaykh has become, we said regarding the Maturidiyyah, we said they are less inclined toward ta'wil (figurative interpretation) or tahrif (distortion of a text's meaning) than the Asha'irah.

The Shaykh : It was not said that the Maturidiyyah affirm the attribute of creation for Allah, and the Asha'irah do not affirm it. The Asha'irah affirm only seven attributes, and these people add to them the affirmation of creation.

The questioner : Yes, these are the accidents.

The Shaykh : Yes.
