What is the ruling on the one who says: "The divine power willed it"?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on the one who says: "The divine power willed it"?

Answer:
No, this is not permissible. One should say, "Allah willed it." As for power, nothing is attributed to it. Nothing is attributed to the attributes. Rather, it is attributed to Allah (Mighty and Majestic): "Allah willed it," "Allah decreed it."
