Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Your Eminence! Are the Asha'irah among the people of the Sunnah and the community? We ask for clarification.
The Asha'irah are among the people of the Sunnah and the community in what they agree with the people of the Sunnah and the community upon, and they are opposed to the people of the Sunnah and the community in the chapter of attributes; because they do not affirm of the attributes of Allah except seven attributes, and even with this, they do not affirm them in the manner in which the people of the Sunnah affirmed them. So it is not befitting for us to say that they are among the people of the Sunnah absolutely, nor to deny that they are among the people of the Sunnah absolutely.Rather, we say: They are among the people of the Sunnah in what they agree with the people of the Sunnah upon, and they are opposed to the people of the Sunnah in what they oppose the people of the Sunnah in. So the detailed explanation is what establishes the truth.And Allah the Exalted said: [Al-An'am: 152], so excluding them from the people of the Sunnah absolutely is not justice, and including them in the people of the Sunnah absolutely is not justice either. It is obligatory that every one who has a right be given his right.
