Explaining what is attributed to Allah the Exalted and that it is of two types
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : In this chapter, the author (may Allah have mercy on him) distinguishes between what is attributed to Allah (Mighty and Majestic) in terms of attributes and entities. He (may Allah have mercy on him) explained that what is attributed to Allah is either an entity that exists in itself, or an attribute that does not exist except in another. This is of two types: either it is attributed to Allah by the known attribution, or it is attributed to Him by the preposition "min" (from). Here, the first is the one attributed by "min," and the second is the one attributed by the known attribution. This one, whether attributed by "min" or by the known attribution, is either an entity that exists in itself, or an attribute that does not exist except in another. Do you understand? Good. Each of these has a ruling. He says:
"And Allah informed in the Book that it is *** from Him" Allah informed in the Qur'an that the Qur'an is from Him. Allah the Exalted said:[Az-Zukhruf 43:1-2] [Al-Jathiyah 45:1-2] In this and this, and He said: [Fussilat 41:2-3] Here, the Qur'an is attributed to Him by "min." The Qur'an is speech, and speech is an attribute of the speaker. So, is what is attributed to Allah by "min" here created or uncreated? It is uncreated because it is an attribute, and the attribute exists in the one who possesses it, and the one who possesses it is the Lord (Mighty and Majestic), who is the Creator. So, is the Qur'an? Huh? Uncreated, one of His attributes.
He said: "And the one governed by "min" is of two types
An entity and an attribute that exists in the entity *** "
The one governed by "min" is of two types: an entity and an attribute that exists in the entity. The attribute that exists in the entity is an attribute of Allah, and the entity itself is a creation among the creations of Allah. He said: "*** So the entities" meaning: the entities attributed to Allah by "min"
"Are the creation of the Creator, the Most Merciful
And the attribute governed by "min" exists in it because *** it is more fitting for Him"
The attribute, meaning the attribute governed by what? By "min." It exists in the governed word. The governed word is the pronoun. So you say, for example, the Qur'an descended from Him, meaning from Allah, right? So it exists in whom? In Allah (Mighty and Majestic). If it exists in Allah and it is an attribute, it must be uncreated. But[Al-Jathiyah 45:13] what is in the heavens and the earth
"And Allah informed in the Book that it is *** from Him" Allah informed in the Qur'an that the Qur'an is from Him. Allah the Exalted said:
(1) Ha, Meem. (2) By the clear Book,
حم والكتاب المبين(1) Ha, Meem. (2) The revelation of the Book is from Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
حم تنزيل الكتاب من الله العزيز الحكيمa revelation from the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful - (3) A Book whose verses have been detailed
تنزيل من الرحمن الرحيم كتاب فصلت آياتهHe said: "And the one governed by "min" is of two types
An entity and an attribute that exists in the entity *** "
The one governed by "min" is of two types: an entity and an attribute that exists in the entity. The attribute that exists in the entity is an attribute of Allah, and the entity itself is a creation among the creations of Allah. He said: "*** So the entities" meaning: the entities attributed to Allah by "min"
"Are the creation of the Creator, the Most Merciful
And the attribute governed by "min" exists in it because *** it is more fitting for Him"
The attribute, meaning the attribute governed by what? By "min." It exists in the governed word. The governed word is the pronoun. So you say, for example, the Qur'an descended from Him, meaning from Allah, right? So it exists in whom? In Allah (Mighty and Majestic). If it exists in Allah and it is an attribute, it must be uncreated. But
