The Meaning of the Poet's Statement: "And likewise, the Jahmi was told, 'He rose above the Throne' *** So he refused and added a letter for the sake of deficiency. He said, 'He rose above' means 'He took control of,' and this is due to his ignorance *** Linguistically and rationally, the two are not the same"

The Shaykh :"And likewise, the Jahmi was told, 'He rose above the Throne' *** So he refused and added a letter"
He was told, "He rose above the Throne," and he said, "No, its meaning is that He took control of the Throne." He added a letter, just as the Jews added a letter of similarity?
The student: The Jahmiyyah
The Shaykh : The Jahmiyyah are those who resemble the Jews. These people added a letter, which is the nun, and these people added a letter, which is the lam.
And he said: "He added a letter for the sake of deficiency". He added a letter, so the meaning became deficient. The Throne and everything else became equal, because if "He rose above the Throne" means "He took control of it," then He is also in control of the earth. And in that case, the Throne has no distinction over the earth, is that not so? So he added a letter, but he caused a deficiency in what? In the meaning. He diminished the status of the Throne.
"He said, 'He rose above' means 'He took control of,' and this is due to his ignorance *** Linguistically and rationally, the two are not the same"
He told the truth. There is a difference between "He rose above the Throne" and "He took control of the Throne."
