You called distortion ta'wil, and likewise denial ta'til; these are two titles (The crime of the people of innovation against Allah and against the texts)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"You called distortion ta'wil, and likewise denial ta'til; these are two titles"
Ta'wil with regard to the texts and ta'til with regard to the attributes by which Allah is described; for example, they say: the meaning of istiwaa' is mastery. What is this? It is distortion. They call it ta'wil. And they say: Allah did not rise above the Throne in reality; He is exalted from being above the Throne in reality. So they denied the attribute, which is the attribute of istiwaa', and they called it ta'til. He says:
"You called distortion ta'wil, and likewise denial ta'til; these are two titles".
