The Difference Between the Mu'tazilah and the Jahmiyyah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is there a major difference between the Mu'tazilah and the Jahmiyyah?
Answer:
The Jahmiyyah are more severe, and may Allah protect us from that, because the Jahmiyyah deny the names and attributes, whereas the Mu'tazilah affirm the names and deny the attributes. They affirm abstract names that have no meanings, because they are unable to deny them, as they are in the Book and in the Qur'an, and they are unable to deny them, but they interpreted them figuratively and distorted them, so they are less severe than the Jahmiyyah. Yes.
