What do you say about the verse of poetry: "Leave the days to do what they will *** And be of good heart when the decree is made," from the perspective of creed?

The questioner : Here he says, again: What do you say about this verse from the perspective of creed:
"Leave the days to do what they will *** And be of good heart when the decree is made"?

The Shaykh : This is said by one who holds to figurative interpretation and is a believer, so it is tolerated from him based on interpretation, like their saying: "The spring has caused the herbs to grow." So whoever is suspected of bad intent should not speak it, and whoever is in an environment of tawhid (the oneness of Allah), where they know that the believer attributes every action in the universe to Allah, but that does not prevent attributing a thing to the cause that Allah (Mighty and Majestic) made a cause; like one who says: "This bread filled me" and "This water quenched my thirst," and there is nothing wrong with that. However, one should note the place where such speech is said, and if it is likely to be misunderstood, it should not be uttered. And sufficient in this is the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): ; meaning: if you speak such words that require some interpretation among people who do not understand what you are saying, the saying of the Messenger mentioned comes: . But if he lives among Arabs who are still upon tawhid (the oneness of Allah) and upon understanding the root of their language, then no one doubts that this expression is from the category of figurative speech used in the language, and not in the Book or the Sunnah, as is explained in the books of Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah have mercy on him).
