Reading from the words of the poet: Chapter... to his saying... like the denial of attributes by the scale
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: "And He is the First and the Last, those two *** are attributes of actions that follow
And they are also attributes of the Essence, for they *** subsist in the Essence, not in another
And for that reason, al-Muqassim erred when he thought *** that His attributes are two different types
If he did not intend this, but he intended *** their subsistence in the possible action
And the action and the acted-upon are one thing *** with al-Muqassim; they are not two things
So for that reason, the description of the action with him is nothing but *** a negative relation, by explanation
So all the names of the Doers with him are not *** certainly established entities with meanings
existing, but matters all of them *** are relations seen as non-existent"
The Shaykh : all of them
The questioner :" existing, but matters all of them *** are relations seen as non-existent in reality
This is the denial of actions, like the *** denial of attributes by the scale"
And they are also attributes of the Essence, for they *** subsist in the Essence, not in another
And for that reason, al-Muqassim erred when he thought *** that His attributes are two different types
If he did not intend this, but he intended *** their subsistence in the possible action
And the action and the acted-upon are one thing *** with al-Muqassim; they are not two things
So for that reason, the description of the action with him is nothing but *** a negative relation, by explanation
So all the names of the Doers with him are not *** certainly established entities with meanings
existing, but matters all of them *** are relations seen as non-existent"
The Shaykh : all of them
The questioner :" existing, but matters all of them *** are relations seen as non-existent in reality
This is the denial of actions, like the *** denial of attributes by the scale"
