And they affirmed when you were victorious with it *** and they rejected the denial of attributes, a humiliating rejection (and this is in the texts of the Hereafter: they acted by affirmation and rejected negation)

The Shaykh :"And they affirmed when you were victorious with it *** and they rejected the denial of attributes, a humiliating rejection"
This means that they adopted affirmation when the argument was in their favor, and they rejected the denial of attributes; that is, they adopted affirmation and rejected the denial of attributes, which is a humiliating rejection. This is with regard to the Hereafter. As for the people of denying attributes regarding the Hereafter, did they adopt affirmation or negation? They adopted affirmation and rejected negation and the denial of attributes. They said: "We believe that the texts of the attributes and the texts of the Hereafter are true in their reality, and we affirm them in their reality. We say that in the Hereafter there is Paradise and Hellfire, and in Paradise there are date palms, pomegranates, fruits, and rivers, and in Hellfire there is punishment, yes, up to whatever the Book and the Sunnah have brought." So they adopted affirmation when they were victorious with it, and they rejected the denial of attributes when they were victorious with affirmation. And this is with regard to...? With regard to the texts of the Hereafter.
