Continuation of the Refutation of the Ash'ari Creed Regarding the Attribute of Speech of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and That It Is Internal Speech

The Shaykh : And finally, I now mention ... some other texts that perhaps their predecessors did not notice the need to interpret them, but when a person deviates from the straight path, he will remain deviant until his last breath, and whenever a text stands before him, he must interpret it with an interpretation whose invalidity is apparent with the slightest reflection.
The Ash'aris have a book, excuse me, a book on tawhid (the oneness of Allah) known as "Al-Jawharah," the book "Al-Jawharah" is the most famous book for students of knowledge, taught in religious institutes in the past, and this book has old commentaries, and finally this book was printed with its commentary and a marginal note by one of the great scholars of Al-Azhar al-Sharif, namely "Muhammad Mahi al-Din." This is from the scholars, the scholars of Al-Azhar, and he has actually rendered service to many books of knowledge, especially those in literature and grammar, and he has, for example, "Sunan Abu Dawud" from his verification and annotation of it, yes, so this man has a "Marginal Note on the Commentary of Al-Jawharah." When his text came to this serious topic of the Divine Speech, he did not address the methodology of the Salaf at all, neither in agreement nor in disagreement ... rather, he addressed the refutation of the Mu'tazilah; knowing that the Mu'tazilah have become a thing of the past, is there a sect named ...? But the reality is that the Mu'tazilah exist in the Ash'aris and the Maturidiyyah, whether they realize it or not, so he took to refuting the Mu'tazilah ... he said to them while debating them: That Allah (Mighty and Majestic) ... to speak to Musa with internal speech that He makes Musa understand - here is the point - is not Allah able to make Musa understand the Divine Speech? So Allah is able to do everything, his opinion remained that the Mu'tazilah did not ... Allah is just, and indeed he cannot say: Allah is just; so he would be refuting them, is not Allah able to make Musa understand the internal speech?
So the issue ... and the verse is explicit: ... and he did not touch upon it at all, why? Because this verse alone demolishes the Ash'ari methodology in this issue, and there is no need for him to ... direct his previous question in the form you heard, but rather he would say as the belief of the Salaf: Is not Allah able to make Musa hear His true speech? He would say: ... why do you not believe in this spoken, heard speech? This necessitates ... internal or sensory speech, no, this is internal speech, it is not possible ... so this verbal speech - also - does not resemble the speech of humans, and sufficient for the believers is the battle, and this extent ... .

The questioner: ... I spoke about their saying that it is ... .
...

The Shaykh: Yes, this is among the necessities of internal speech, meaning the brother is reminding us ... the common ... the scholars of the Salaf, among them is the printed book ... of His attributes and His speech ... he has the true speech, so in the Qur'an - for example - ... and so on, this - as we said - is among the proofs of the heard Divine Speech; because he heard the Divine address and answered it, so what do the proponents of internal speech say? They say: Allah since eternity and still says to Musa: !

The questioner: Until the Hour stands.

The Shaykh: ... this word and so on, since eternity Allah said this speech and still says it and still says it to where there is no end to it, but unfortunately this is among the absurdities ... .

The questioner: ... upon the Prophet, meaning as long as he said ... .

Another questioner : ... ... .

The Shaykh: The summary: We praise Allah first for making us Muslims, and secondly and finally for making us Salafis ... in reality, the Islam of the majority of Muslims today is almost not ... .
