The Difference Between Mashī'ah and Irādah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: What is the difference between will (mashiyyah) and volition (iradah)?

Answer:
Will (mashiyyah) is synonymous with cosmic volition. Volition (iradah) is divided into two types: cosmic volition and legislative volition. As for will (mashiyyah), it is only cosmic will and is not divided. Cosmic will is not divided. It is not said that there is cosmic will and legislative will; no, that is specific to volition (iradah). Yes.
