  2. THE COMPOUND ARGUMENT “Or were they created from nothing or are they the creators. Or did they create the heavens and the earth. Rather they are a people without conviction.” [Sûrah al-Tuwr: 35-6]

  3. A Or were they created from nothing... Cannot be as it requires generation of effects without cause.

  31. TEXTUAL PROOF عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : إن الله عز وجل يقول يوم القيامة يا ابن آدم مرضت فلم تعدني قال يا رب كيف أعودك وأنت رب العالمين قال أما علمت أن عبدي فلانا مرض فلم تعده أما علمت أنك لو عدته لوجدتني عنده

  32. TEXTUAL PROOF ((Allah will say on the Day of Judgment: Oh Son of Adam, I was sick and you did not visit me. He will respond: Oh my Lord, how can You be sick for me to visit when You are the Lord of the Worlds. He (Allah) will respond: Did you not know that My slave so and so was sick and you didn’t visit him. Did you not know that had you visited him you would have found me there? Muslim: 2569

  33. TEXTUAL PROOF يا ابن آدم استطعمتك فلم تطعمني قال يا رب كيف أطعمك وأنت رب العالمين قال أما علمت أنه استطعمك عبدي فلان فلم تطعمه أما علمت أنك لو أطعمته لوجدت ذلك عندي

Did you not know my slave so and so asked you for something to drink and you did not give him any. Did you not know that had you given him to drink, you would have found that by me...)) Muslim: 2569

  37. Imam Ahmad ibnHanbal [r`a] says in al-Radd `ala al-Jahmiyahwa al-Zanadiqah, pp. 149-150: “And so Allah – and to Him belongs the highest example – encompasses everything and knows how it is and what it is without being in anything that He has created.”

  38. Imam Ahmad ibnHanbal [r`a] says in al-Radd `ala al-Jahmiyahwa al-Zanadiqah, pp. 155-6: “When you want to know that a Jahmi lies regarding Allah when he says that Allah is everywhere and that no space is free of Him, ask the following....”

  39. “...Is it not so that Allah existed before everything else? He will say: Yes. Then ask him: When Allah created did He create that which He created inside of Himself or outside of Himself? This leaves only three views, one of which he has to embrace...”

  40. “...a) If he claims that Allah had created creatures inside of Himself, he has become a kafir since he has in fact claimed that Allah has created Jinkind, mankind and the Shayatin inside of Himself...”

  41. “...b) If he claims that Allah created creation outside of Himself and then entered it, this is kufr also as he will have claimed that Allah is everywhere including foul and dirty places...”

  42. “...c) And if he says that Allah created creation external to himself and then did not enter it, he will have renounced his view in entirety and this is the view of Ahl al-Sunnah.”

  43. 6- DIFFERENCE المخالفة للحوادث

  44. DEFINITION OF DIFFERENCE To believe that the essence, qualities and deeds of Allah differ from that of creation.

  45. TEXTUAL PROOF ((ليس كمثله شيء وهو السميع البصير)) ((Nothing is like Allah and He is the All-hearing, the All-seeing.)) Surah al-Shuwraa: 11

  46. RATIONAL PROOF Divinity demands perfection and lack of defects. The clearest defects are the qualities of creation – such as sleep, ignorance, hunger, thirst and general need – and as such Allah is free of all of this.

  47. As such the essence of Allah differs from that of creation in that it does not require a Creator or anything else to exist.

  48. The qualities of Allah differ from that of creation. As such the hearing, sight and knowledge of Allah differ from that of creation. They carry the same names but differ in reality and essence.

  49. The deeds of Allah differ from that of creation. This is because Allah does without need of intermediaries and instruments. He does without needing to do. He does as He wills and cannot be deterred. Everything He does carries a wisdom and purpose.
