Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the meaning of Allah's cosmic and legislative words? And what is the difference between them?
Answer:
Allah's cosmic words are those by which He commands the universe,[Ya-Sin 36:82], saying to a thing, "Be," and it is. This is the cosmic aspect. The administrative commands in the universe are these cosmic words. As for the legislative words, they are the revelation that is sent down to the messengers, such as the Qur'an, the Torah, the Gospel, the Psalms, and the Scrolls of Ibrahim and Musa. This is the word of legislative revelation. No.
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the meaning of Allah's cosmic and legislative words? And what is the difference between them?
Answer:
Allah's cosmic words are those by which He commands the universe,
His command is only when He intends a thing that He says to it, "Be," and it is.
إِنَّمَا أَمْرُهُ إِذَا أَرَادَ شَيْئًا أَن يَقُولَ لَهُ كُن فَيَكُونُ
