Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What are the false implications that arise from the claim that the Qur'an is created?
Answer:
The false implications are disbelief, disbelief, disbelief, and may Allah protect us from it. It denies the speech of Allah the Exalted and describes Allah as not speaking. It is said, by way of a joke, that one of these people who deny the divine attributes asked a Hanbali about the creed of Imam Ahmad. He said to him: O Hanbali, what do you say to your Lord on the Day of Resurrection if He asks you, "Where did you get the idea that I speak?" The Hanbali said: I say, "Do you speak, O my Lord?" So they were defeated. Yes.
