He is the Mighty with a might that is His attribute *** And He has power over you, O brother of the Sultan (Clarifying that power has no effect or ruling, and if it is transitive, it means the power to decree)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"He is the Mighty with a might that is His attribute ***"
"The Mighty" is a name, and the attribute is might, but might has no ruling, unless it is the might of power. For this reason, he said:
"*** And He has power over you, O brother of the Sultan"
Huh?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : How?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : No, no, "And He has power over you," over you, correct.
"*** And He has power over you, O brother of the Sultan"
The author (may Allah have mercy on him) did not mention a ruling for might, because might is among the attributes that are not transitive. Life is also among the attributes that are not transitive. Now, might (al-'izzah) is transitive, might. Well, in any case, among the attributes that do not transcend the one described, might is among the attributes that do not transcend the one described. If it transcends him, it becomes the meaning of power, so you say: "He has power over you." For this reason, the author said:
"** And He has power over you, O brother of the Sultan"
Why did he say "O brother of the Sultan"? Because He, Glorified and Exalted is He, if He has power over the one who has authority, then He has power over those who do not have authority, a fortiori. He has power over the king, He has power over the president, He has power over the minister, yes, those with authority; those below them, a fortiori.
