The reason for making the oneness of the names and attributes an independent section

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: What are the categories of tawhid (the oneness of Allah)? Are they three categories—oneness of lordship, oneness of worship, and oneness of the names and attributes—or are there other categories?

Answer:
There are no other categories; rather, they are oneness of lordship, oneness of worship, and oneness of the names and attributes. In reality, the oneness of the names and attributes is included within the oneness of lordship, but because of the misguidance that occurred from the Jahmiyyah and the Mu'tazilah, it was made an independent section in order to refute them. Yes.
