The Meaning of the Poet's Statement: (A Continuation of the Refutation of the One Who Said It Is Not Inside the World Nor Outside of It) And Allah has described inanimate objects as *** dead and deaf, having no eyes, and likewise
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Now, "And Allah has described inanimate objects as dead" [An-Nahl 16:20-21] even though al-Lat, al-Uzza, and Manat are inanimate objects, He denied [these attributes] from them and described them as dead, even though they are not capable of that. So, a thing is affirmed with what it does not accept and denied from what it does not accept by the text of the Qur'an. So how do you say that if we say that Allah is not inside [the world] and not outside [of it], that this is a correct description because He is not capable of being inside or outside? We say to them: even if He is not capable, this is not correct. Now, he then said
"And likewise He denied sensation and speech from them *** and creation"
[An-Nahl 16:20] [An-Nahl 16:21]
"This is so, and they do not accept what *** is denied, nor are they part of the animal kingdom"
It is clear, meaning these things are inanimate, not from the animals from which death or sensation is denied, and yet Allah denied them from them. Yes.
(20) And those they invoke other than Allah create nothing, and they [themselves] are created. (21) They are, [in fact], dead, not alive
والذين تدعون من دون الله لا يخلقون شيئا وهم يخلقون أموات غير أحياء"And likewise He denied sensation and speech from them *** and creation"
create nothing, and they [themselves] are created.
لا يخلقون شيئا وهم يخلقونThey are, [in fact], dead, not alive, and they do not perceive when they will be resurrected.
أموات غير أحياء وما يشعرون أيان يبعثون"This is so, and they do not accept what *** is denied, nor are they part of the animal kingdom"
It is clear, meaning these things are inanimate, not from the animals from which death or sensation is denied, and yet Allah denied them from them. Yes.
