Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"The statement of the Ittihadiyyah, those who assert the unity of existence" We ask Allah for safety.
These Ittihadiyyah say: The created is the very Creator, and some of them say: The created is not the very Creator, but it united with the very Creator; they were originally two, then they became one. The earlier ones say: There are not two in the first place; the entire universe is the Lord and the created, yes.
For this reason, Ibn al-Qayyim said to them: "O people, if you say that the Lord is this universe, then that means your Lord is trampled under your feet". Is that so? The husband who has intercourse with his wife, who has intercourse with whom? He has intercourse with his Lord, may Allah protect us. As long as you say the entire universe is Allah, that means you are trampling your Lord. For this reason, he said: "O nation whose Lord is trampled by her ***" I forgot the verse.
The student: O nation whose worshipped one is trampled by her.
The Shaykh : Yes.
"O nation whose worshipped one is trampled by her *** Woe to those with intellects and minds". These are the people of the unity of existence. He says, for example: You are the Lord and I am the Lord, the dog is the Lord and the donkey is the Lord, the sky is the Lord and the earth is the Lord, and everything is the Lord, yes.
These people say: Therefore, every word in existence is the word of Allah. As long as the human is the Lord, if he speaks, it is the word of the Lord. For this reason, they say:
"Every word in existence is His word *** Whether in prose or verse, it is the same to us" So Imru' al-Qays's poem is the word of Allah, and Qays ibn Sa'dah's sermon is the word of Allah, and whoever speaks, his word is the word of Allah. He speaks of what is ugly, what is good, or anything else, and it is the word of Allah.
The student: And when he dies?
The Shaykh : And when he dies, a part of Allah dies. They say it does not die, but it transforms from one description to another, yes.
... Like an echo, like an echo, meaning, something that mimics speech in imitation. The phrase means that the first speech was erased, but it was expressed through it.
Are there any remaining questions?

The Shaykh : Fine.
