Discussion of the fact that He has aversion, satisfaction, love, excellence, and perfection, with mention of the rational evidence for it
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Likewise, He has aversion. Allah the Exalted dislikes what deserves aversion from actions and words. [At-Tawbah 9:46] Is this a statement or an action? The disliked thing is their emergence. Sahih Ibn Hibban 47:168 This is a statement. So Allah the Exalted has aversion.
Likewise, He has satisfaction. He is pleased with words, He is pleased with actions, and He is pleased with the believers regarding the believers. Good.
Likewise, He has love. He loves and is loved, as He the Exalted said:[Al-Ma'idah 5:54] And He is the One of excellence. The excellence of Allah the Exalted cannot be counted or enumerated. [An-Nahl 16:18]
"And He has absolute perfection, free *** from likening and comparing to man"
Then the author mentioned a rational proof that Allah has perfection, saying:
"And the perfection of the One who gave perfection to Himself *** is more fitting"
I, in my opinion, with Himself, a second copy is possible. Yes, put it down, a second copy. "For Himself is more fitting" We say, is there perfection in man? Yes. The one who gave perfection is more deserving of perfection. This is a rational proof. Therefore he said:
"Can it be that He gave perfection and He does not have *** that perfection? Is that possible?"
The answer is no. How can one who is not perfect give perfection? This is impossible. So the perfection of Allah has been indicated by revelation and reason. One of the rational proofs for the perfection of Allah is that He is the Giver of perfection, and the Giver of perfection is more deserving of perfection. He said:
"Can it be a man" Meaning, can a man from the children of Adam be hearing and seeing? And this is known, is it not? It is known. "Speaking by will and clarity" This is also known. A man speaks by his will and speaks eloquent, clear speech. "And he has life" Who? Man.
"And power and will *** and knowledge of the universal and the particulars
And Allah has given him that, and this is not *** a description of him "
A description of whom? A description of Allah. Meaning, how is man described with these perfect attributes, and Allah is the One who gave them to him? And this is not a description of Allah. He says: "So be amazed at the slander" Good. It is as if an objection was raised against the author, saying: Sleep, eating, and intercourse are among the perfections of man, so they are perfection for man. Do you attribute them to Allah? Good. You say that the one who gave perfection is more deserving of perfection, and Allah has given man this. Therefore, man does not leave sleep except due to illness, does not leave eating except due to illness, and does not leave intercourse except due to illness. So what is among the perfections of man? Sleep, eating, drinking, and intercourse. Therefore, it follows from your rule that Allah the Exalted is described with this. Do you understand? Good. The author answered it with what we will hear from the reciter.
But Allah disliked their being sent
ولكن كَره الله انبعاثهمIndeed, Allah has disliked for you backbiting.
إن الله كره لكم قيل وقالLikewise, He has satisfaction. He is pleased with words, He is pleased with actions, and He is pleased with the believers regarding the believers. Good.
Likewise, He has love. He loves and is loved, as He the Exalted said:
Allah will bring forth [in place of them] a people He will love and who will love Him
فسوف يأتي الله بقوم يحبهم ويحبونهAnd if you should count the favors of Allah, you could not enumerate them
وإن تعدوا نعمة الله لا تحصوها"And He has absolute perfection, free *** from likening and comparing to man"
