Explanation of the Asha'irah's rule on deriving an attribute from an action
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And the Shaykh said, what does it mean, "I will not close it" (may Allah have mercy on him)? Therefore, the view of the action is that he has no explanation for it other than a foreign attribution.
Answer:
They say that what is derived from an action is an attribute of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), an attribute of Allah that subsists in His essence. So, from the fact that He creates, it is not said that He is the Creator, because creation is a permanent attribute, and Allah is not subject to new occurrences. That is to say, their theological rule is applied to the Qur'an and the Sunan. This is false. Yes.
The presenter:
Yes, yes, now
