What is the interpretation of the names al-Khaliq (The Creator) and al-Bari (The Originator), and what is the difference between them, along with a mention of a book that explains the names according to the understanding of our righteous predecessors?

The questioner : Is disbelief (kufr) interpreted only as denial from a terminological perspective? Or are there other forms of disbelief by which it is interpreted, such as turning away, arrogance, refusal, and others?

The Shaykh : Yes, this is a question that was not asked, because we have divided disbelief (kufr) into two categories:
1 - Practical disbelief (kufr 'amali).
2 - And creedal disbelief (kufr 'aqidi).
So this is an answer that was given previously, because we advanced this division and said: that disbelief (kufr) may be practical disbelief (kufr) and not creedal disbelief (kufr). So, disbelief (kufr) does not only mean: denial, but it also means another meaning. Among those meanings is what came in the questioner's question.The questioner : It may be, for example, disbelief in a blessing (kufr ni'mah): as came in a hadith in al-Bukhari regarding the women.
So, disbelief (kufr) has several meanings in reality. But in what relates to our previous discussion, the disbelief (kufr) regarding the one who abandons prayer and other than prayer is either disbelief (kufr) in the sense of denial, in which case he is an apostate (murtadd) from his religion, or it is disbelief (kufr) in the sense that he does the deeds of the disbelievers, so he does not pray. In this case, he is not declared a disbeliever (kafir) by it, but rather he commits open sinfulness (fisq).

The Shaykh : ... ., and it is a collective obligation (fard kifayah), and the individual obligation (fard 'ayn) takes precedence over the collective obligation (fard kifayah). But of course, no one should understand from my answer that it is obligatory for him to learn to read the Qur'an in the seven recitations, let alone the ten. No, rather, if he reads al-Fatihah, he should read it as it was revealed to the heart of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). If he reads: , , at least from these short surahs, also: he must read it in the correct manner according to the people of knowledge of recitation. As for being occupied with that by what is not an individual obligation (fard 'ayn) for him, this is like the one who prays at night while the people are sleeping, but he is still ... . The obligatory prayers in broad daylight.
