How do we respond to those who say: Dividing tawhid (the oneness of Allah) into three categories is an innovation that plunges people into a vortex?

The questioner : Some of the brothers say that the divisions witnessed by Islam regarding the development of the tawhid of the attributes of the Lord, Glorified and Exalted is He, are problematic. That is, we know in the vortex, did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) refer to this division? Or is it he who innovated this division?

The Shaykh : By Allah, the one in the vortex is being shot at and remains standing. Glory be to Allah, I doubt the sincerity of their intentions. Yes, I doubt the sincerity of his intention. Did the Shari'ah come with the conditions of prayer being such and such, the pillars of prayer being such and such, the obligatory acts of prayer being such and such, the conditions of Hajj being such and such, and the obligatory acts being such and such?
This is what came in the Sunnah, but knowledge of this is obtained through tracking. Likewise, the attributes of Allah, Mighty and Majestic, are found through tracking to not go beyond this tawhid. Through tracking, we found that it does not go beyond three categories. The Lawgiver, as you know, is not a classifier. The Shari'ah sometimes includes a division and sometimes does not. Even in worldly matters, they sometimes come absolute and sometimes divided, such as "among you is a wretched one and among you is a happy one" , and sometimes they do not come divided. If this division leads to the invalidation of some of the texts, we reject it against its proponent. If it confines the texts for us and regulates them for us, that is better; that is better and there is no objection to it. But by Allah, if it rejects the texts, like the division of some of the Asha'irah now of the attributes into forty attributes, this is an attribute of meaning and this is an attribute of such and such, and this division includes the invalidation of the attributes, we reject this. But this division that Shaykh al-Islam and others made contains nothing that invalidates what the texts brought; rather, it is a confinement of the meanings so that they do not scatter for the student of knowledge. Look, O Sater, I left you to this. I know whether it preceded or not, because I did not follow this, and my way is that what I am convinced of, I do not go seeking a contradiction or someone who said it or did not say it, as long as a person is convinced by the indication of the Book and the Sunnah in a matter, he has no need to go seeking research.
