Know that every word that necessitates Allah the Exalted being in the earth, or His mixing with His creations, or the negation of His loftiness, or the negation of His rising above His Throne
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Then he said: "Know that every word that necessitates Allah the Exalted being in the earth, or His mixing with His creations, or the negation of His loftiness, or the negation of His rising above His Throne, or anything else that is not befitting of Him the Exalted, is a false word. It is obligatory to refute it with its speaker, whoever he may be and whatever the wording".
That every word that necessitates [this], it is obligatory to refute it. And the one that does not necessitate it but suggests it, it is to be avoided so that the delusion does not occur in some people who have a bias, whether by refuting you or by using your words as evidence. Everything that suggests falsehood, leave it. Yes.
"And every statement that suggests—even to some people—what is not befitting of Allah the Exalted, it is obligatory to avoid it so that one does not think of Allah with a bad thought. But what Allah the Exalted has affirmed for Himself in His Book or on the tongue of His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), it is obligatory to affirm it and to clarify the falsity of the delusion of one who imagined in it what is not befitting of Allah (Mighty and Majestic)". The discussion on this issue is concluded, and it is the issue of co-presence. As for the categories of co-presence, they are known to us; we have read them in al-Wasitiyyah.
