The reciter: "This is the statement of Ahmad and Muhammad *** and their opponents after them are two sects
One of them claimed that His speech *** was created for Him, its words and meanings
And the others refused and said half of it *** was created and half subsists with the Most Merciful
They claimed the Qur'an is an expression and a narration *** We said as they claimed, there are two Qur'ans
This one which we recite is created as *** al-Walid said and after him the two groups
And the other is the ancient meaning which subsists *** with the Self, not heard from the Lord
And the command is the same as the prohibition and its question *** is the same as its information, and it is singular"
The Shaykh : It is fitting for the news of the plural, a news that is fitting
The reciter: "And it is the Zabur and the same as the Torah and the Injil *** and the same as the Dhikr and the Furqan
The whole is one thing in itself *** it does not accept division in the minds
It has no whole and no part and no *** letter and no Arabic and no Hebrew
And their proof in that is a verse he said *** so what is said of al-Akhtal the Christian
O people, the Christians erred before in *** the meaning of speech and they did not find a clear explanation
And for this they made the Messiah their god *** when it was said the word of the Creator, the Most Merciful
And for this they made him Nasa'uta and not *** Huta, ancient, then united
And similar to this is one who says His speech *** is an ancient meaning not subject to change
And the half is created and those are its letters *** his Nasa'uta, but they are two
So look at this agreement, for it is *** amazing, and consider the Sunnah of the Most Merciful"
The Shaykh : In the name of Allah, the Merciful. This author (may Allah have mercy on him), when he mentioned the statement of Imam Ahmad and the statement of al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him), said: And his opponents after him are two sects
One of them claimed that His speech *** was created for Him, its words and meanings
