Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the validity of dividing the will into two categories: legislative will and cosmic will?
Answer:
What is the validity of dividing the will into two categories? Is the question asking, "What is the validity," meaning you are in doubt about this? This exists in the Book and the Sunnah: there is the cosmic will, and there is the will... no, the cosmic will is never divided. Rather, the will is of two types: cosmic will and decreed will. The command is of two types; this will come, if Allah wills, in the same book: the command is of two types, cosmic command and legislative command. Cosmic command is decreed, and legislative command is... this will come, if Allah wills. Yes.
