(Discussion of the name al-Muntaqim and that it came in the Qur'an restricted to the criminals or with the addition of "Dhu") and the explanation of the grammatical parsing of "Dhu" and the hadith regarding the isolated name al-Muntaqim, which is mawquf
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : He said: "And the hadith regarding the isolated name al-Muntaqim is mawquf, as the knowledgeable ones have said"
Al-Muntaqim: It came among the names of Allah, or among those who enumerated the names of Allah, al-Muntaqim. However, it is not valid as mawquf upon a Companion. But if I said "al-'Afu al-Muntaqim," it would be among the compound names, because al-'Afu (the Pardoner) is the opposite of al-Muntaqim (the Retaliator).
What came regarding al-Muntaqim?! He said:
"What came in the Qur'an is not restricted*** to the criminals".
Allah the Exalted said:[As-Sajdah 32:22] It is restricted. And the restricted is not like the unrestricted, because the unrestricted restricts the attribution of the attribute to Allah in an absolute sense, unlike the restricted.
"Likewise, it came with 'Dhu' in two types" "With 'Dhu' in two types" Why did it come with the alif, Khalid?!

The Shaykh : Linguistically, it is from the language of the Arabs.
The student: Due to the necessity of poetry.
The Shaykh : Due to the necessity of poetry. Yes.
The student: In the narrative.

The Shaykh : For the rhyme. 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Dawud.

The Shaykh : Due to the necessity of poetry, which is the rhyme.
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : No, this is raised with the alif, because the meaning is: "And it came with 'Dhu' in two types," meaning that they are two types:
A type restricted to the criminals, and a type with "Dhu."
So his saying "two types" is the predicate of a deleted subject, and "Dhu" is not attached to "two types"; rather, "Dhu" is disconnected, and "it came with Dhu" is like His saying, the Exalted:[Ali 'Imran 3:4]
Two types, two types; this is the predicate of the deleted subject, and the implied meaning is: "They are two types." What do you say, Ibn Dawud?
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : In any case, it slipped past you... what is possible... So, O people, the author (may Allah have mercy on him) informed us that al-Muntaqim did not come in isolation except in a mawquf hadith. And a mawquf hadith is not a proof. But it came in the Qur'an restricted to the criminals[As-Sajdah 32:22]
Or with the addition of "Dhu"[Ali 'Imran 3:4]. Good.

Allah the Exalted said:
Indeed We, from the criminals, will take retribution.
