The Shaykh : His saying, may He be Exalted:[At-Tawbah 9:17] When "ma kana" appears in the Noble Qur'an, it is either for the negation of legal existence or the negation of divine decree, whether cosmic or legal, depending on the context. So regarding His saying [At-Tawbah 9:17], is it by decree or by law? By law. As for by decree, it is possible. And regarding His saying, may He be Exalted: [At-Tawbah 9:115], is it by decree or by law? By decree, because misguidance is not desired; rather, it is a legal matter. Good. [Al-Baqarah 2:143]? By decree, because the intended meaning is the reward. Yes.
