The Position of the Qadariyyah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: What is the school of thought or the defining characteristic of those called the Qadariyyah? And are they outside the scope of the creed?
Answer:
The Qadariyyah are those who deny the divine decree (qadar) and say that matters are new and were not decreed beforehand; they are the Mu’tazilah. The Jabriyyah are also among the Qadariyyah; they exaggerate in affirming the divine decree and say that the servant is compelled and has no will, but is merely moved. They are at opposite extremes, and may Allah protect us from that. Yes.
