The Attribute of Power (Qudra)
Question
[ar]الْقُدْرَةُ عَلَى الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ فَوْقَ الْأَسْبَابِ بِمُجَرَّدِ تَعَلُّقِ الْإِرَادَةِ بِهِ كُلُّهَا هُوَ لِلَّهِ الْوَاحِدِ، وَالْقَائِلُ بِذَلِكَ لِغَيْرِهِ تَعَالَى نَبِيًّا كَانَ أَوْ وَلِيًّا أَوْ مَلَكًا مُقَرَّبًا مُشْرِكٌ بِاللهِ فِي صِفَةِ الْقُدْرَةِ أَمْ لَا؟[/ar] Power over good and evil, above all causes, by the mere attachment of the will to it — all of it belongs to Allah the One; and one who affirms this for anyone other than Him, Exalted is He, be he a prophet, a wali or an angel…
Answer
[ar]هَٰذِهِ الصِّفَةُ مُخْتَصَّةٌ بِاللهِ تَعَالَى، لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ فِيهَا أَحَدٌ.[/ar] This attribute belongs exclusively to Allah the Exalted; no one is a partner with Him in it.
