The Shaykh : The third group, which is the second of the opposites of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him).
"And the others are the people of hypocrisy, so they concealed *** something and said its opposite with their tongue"
What did they conceal? Disbelief. And they said its opposite with their tongue, which is Islam. They manifested Islam and concealed disbelief.
"And likewise, the one who denies the attributes conceals his denial *** while he has manifested the exaltation of the Most Merciful"
The one who denies the attributes rejects the attributes and commits disbelief by them, claiming that this is exalting Allah (Mighty and Majestic) and affirming His oneness. He says: "The people of affirming the attributes are polytheists," just as the worshippers of idols who ascribed a body to Allah were, as mentioned previously.
"These are the inheritances of the servants, divided *** among the sects by the division of the generous one"
Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) grants His favor to whom He wills. Some people are deprived, and some people are given and bestowed upon. This is a subtle point.
