The Ruling on the Asha'irah in Tawhid

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Do the Asha'irah err only in the names and attributes, meaning that they acknowledge the oneness of worship and the oneness of lordship? They focus only on the oneness of lordship and establish rational proofs for it, as they claim.

Answer:
As for the oneness of worship, they do not care about it, nor do they teach it to people or explain it to them. This is regarding their concern and teaching. As for whether they fall into shirk (associating partners with Allah), we do not know about them, but they are deficient in tawhid (the oneness of Allah) and in knowing tawhid.
