Can it be said that the attributes derived from the names are essential attributes?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, can we say that the attribute by which we name Allah (Mighty and Majestic) is an essential attribute? That is, are all the attributes derived from the names essential attributes? Is this possible?
The Shaykh : It is not possible right now. I am unable to answer this; it requires reflection. Yes, because the Creator has the attribute of creation, and creation is an action attribute.
