Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: ... In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
" A chapter explaining that the calamity that befell the people of denial of the divine attributes and disbelief, from the side of the names for which Allah has not sent down any authority
O my people, the root of your misfortune is names for which*** the Most Merciful has not sent down any authority ".
The Shaykh : They turned you upside down.
The reader: " They turned you upside down to the utmost degree of inversion, and*** they uprooted your dwellings from their foundations "
The Shaykh : Your dwellings
The reader: " They turned you upside down to the utmost degree of inversion, and*** they uprooted your dwellings from their foundations, so those palaces collapsed and the regions of knowledge and faith*** became desolate of you
And the sin is yours, for you accepted their wording*** without any detail or distinction
And it is that which contained two matters, one of*** truth and one of clear invalidity
You called the Throne of the All-Seeing a place*** and rising above it a localization ".
The Shaykh : The rising above is a connecting hamza that is not pronounced like a cut, except at the beginning...
The reader: Localization
The Shaykh : No, and the rising above... and the rising above.
The reader: " You called the Throne of the All-Seeing a place*** "
The Shaykh : And the rising above
The reader: " You called the Throne of the All-Seeing a place*** and the rising above a localization in a place
And you made a direction above the highest heavens*** and you weighed the negation of this with a scale
And you made affirmation likening and*** ascribing a body, and this is the utmost of slander
And you made the One described a body that receives*** accidents, creations, and colors
And you made His attributes an accident, and*** this is all a bridge "
The Shaykh : All of it
The reader: " And you made His attributes an accident, and*** this is all a bridge to denial
And likewise you called the occurrence of accidents*** in His actions a title for one who commits aggression
For the ears are repelled by this wording, repelled*** by it as they are repelled by likening and deficiency
So you clothed His actions with the wording of*** accidents, then you said the saying of one who is in error
That accidents do not subsist in Him, and the*** intent is the negation of the actions of the Judge
So if His actions and His attributes*** and His speech and the elevation of the One of authority are negated
Then by what was He a Lord with you,*** O sect of investigation and knowledge
And the intent is the negation of His being an Actor by this*** title, the act of the bewitching poet
And likewise the wisdom of our Lord you called*** causes and purposes, and these are two names
That do not indicate praise, but its opposite,*** so it becomes easy for the minds at that time "
The Shaykh : Its opposite with a fathah, its opposite... with a kasrah
The reader: " That do not indicate praise, but its opposite,*** so it becomes easy for the minds at that time
The negation of the attributes and the wisdom of the Creator*** and the Actor, denying this matter
And likewise the rising of the Lord above the Throne,*** you said that it is a composition that is invalid
And likewise the Face of the Lord, Exalted is His Majesty,*** and likewise the wording of hand and the wording of two hands
You called all of this limbs, and*** you called it the limbs of man
And you spread the negation over it at that time,*** like our negation of a defect with deficiency
You said we purify Him from accidents and*** accidents and parts and a body
And from accidents that occur in His essence,*** Exalted is He, from the knock of the events
And the intent is the negation of His attributes and His actions*** and the rising above and the wisdom of the Most Merciful
And most of the people are imprisoned in the prison of*** wording, fearing the disgrace of the jailer
And all of them, except the individual, accept a*** school in one mold and reject it in another
And the intent is that the essence and the attributes and*** the actions are not negated by this nonsense
Call Him what you wish, for the matter is not in the*** names, but in the intent and meanings
Call Him what you wish, for the matter is not in the*** names, but in the intent and meanings
How much you have sought nearness through the wording of*** body and ascribing a body to denial of attributes and disbelief
And you made it a shield if we said to you*** that Allah is above the Throne and the creations
You said to us, a body upon a body,*** Allah is above a body and a corpse
And likewise if we said the Qur'an is His speech,*** it emanated from Him, it did not emanate from a human
No, nor an angel, nor a tablet, nor*** "
The Shaykh : A tablet, nor a tablet
The reader: -" No, nor an angel, nor a tablet, nor*** a pen, the Most Merciful said it as a clear statement
You said to us that the existence of speech *** is in the body, and this is also a created thing
An accident that subsists without a body, this*** was not conceivable for those with minds
And likewise when we say our Lord descends*** in the last third of the night or the second
You said to us that the descent for non-bodies*** is impossible, this is not possible
And likewise if we said He is seen, Exalted is He,*** you said bodies, how can He be seen with the eye
Or was He in a direction, Exalted is our Lord*** from this, so no human sees Him
But if we said He has a Face as*** in the text, or we said so, two hands
And likewise if we said as in the text, that*** the heart is between the fingers of the Most Merciful
And likewise, if we say, the fingers are above it *** All the worlds, and they are in a state of trembling
And likewise if we said His two hands for His*** earth and His heaven are grasping in the Resurrection "
That is settled.
The Shaykh : No...
The reader: No
" And likewise if we said He will uncover His leg,*** then all of them will fall prostrate to their foreheads
And likewise if we said He will come for the division*** between the servants with the justice of the One of authority
Your resurrection stood, and likewise the resurrection of the*** Hereafter with this saying about the Most Merciful
And by Allah, if we said what the Companions*** and those after them said with their tongue
You would have stoned us with stones if you*** could, after stoning with insults and aggression
And by Allah, you declared disbelievers those who said some*** of their words, O nation of aggression
And you made the body which you deemed*** invalid a false god of invalidity
And you assigned to the body a meaning not*** known by it in the usage of every tongue
and you built the negation of the attributes upon it, so there gathered for you at that time two censures
A lie against the language of the Messenger and the negation of affirmation"
The Shaykh : And the negation of aff
The reader: " A lie against the language of the Messenger and the negation of affir*** mation of the elevation of the Creator of the creations
And you committed two distortions at that time, the*** distortion of the hadith and the clear Qur'an
And you earned two sins, the sin of negation and*** distortion, so a full load was gathered for you
And you were promised two rewards, the reward of truth and*** faith, until you missed two shares
And you earned two despises, the despise of your*** God and the believers, so you received two despises
And you wore two garments, the garment of ignorance and*** ugly injustice, so wretched are the two garments
And you took two patterns, the pattern of arrogance and*** great misguidance, so wretched are the two patterns
And you extended toward the heights with eyes,*** but your reach did not extend to them
And you came to it from other than its doors,*** but you climbed over the walls
And you closed two doors, if they had been opened for*** you, you would have gained every glad tidings and ease
The door of the hadith and the door of this revelation,*** whoever opens them, may the two doors be easy for him
And you opened two doors, whoever opens them*** the gifts of Satan are opened upon him
The door of speech, and you were forbidden from it,*** and the door of the fire, which is the language of the Greeks
So you entered two houses, the house of ignorance in*** this world and the house of disgrace in the fires
And you tasted two colors, the color of doubt and*** analysis, so wretched are the two colors
And you committed two matters, how many a nation*** they have destroyed in past times
Prioritizing the opinions of men over what*** the Messenger said and the clear Qur'an
Prioritizing the opinions of men over what*** the Messenger said and the clear Qur'an
And the second is their attribution to riddles*** and confusion "
The Shaykh : To riddles
The reader: " And the second is their attribution to riddles*** and confusion and concealment and secrecy
And you plotted a plot, if it had been done to*** us, the ties of faith would have been broken in us
You extinguished the light of the Book and the Sunnah of the*** Guide with this distortion and nonsense
But you kindled the fire of war*** between two differing sects
And by Allah, He will extinguish it with the tongues of those*** He has distinguished with knowledge and faith
And by Allah, if the one who ascribes a body to Allah were drowned in the blood of*** ascribing a body to Allah from his foot to his ear
Then the Text Is Greater in His Regard and More Noble *** Than to Be Contradicted by the Saying of So-and-So"
" A chapter explaining that the calamity that befell the people of denial of the divine attributes and disbelief, from the side of the names for which Allah has not sent down any authority
