Tafsir Asma Allah al-Husna li-al-Sadi - Abd al-Rahman al-Sadi’ - (245)

Conclusion

All praise is due to Allah, through whose praise good deeds are brought to completion. I praise Him for granting me success and extol Him with every praise. I cannot encompass His praise; He is as He has praised Himself. May blessings and peace be upon the noblest of prophets and messengers, our Prophet Muhammad, and upon all his family and Companions.

To proceed:

In this study, now drawing to a close, I have endeavoured, to the best of my ability, to present its material clearly and accessibly. I have focused on explaining the efforts of the eminent scholar Abd al-Rahmān al-Sa‘dī in his explanations of the Most Beautiful Names. In these, he—may Allah have mercy on him—demonstrated his great concern to clarify the beliefs of the righteous predecessors, particularly regarding Allah’s names and attributes. The shaykh—may Allah have mercy on him—explains the Most Beautiful Names according to the methodology of the righteous predecessors, relying on transmitted evidence from the Quran and Sunnah.

The conclusions I have drawn from this study may be summarized as follows:

1 - Acknowledging and believing in all of Allah’s names, attributes and actions established in the Quran and Sunnah.

2 - Affirming all the attributes of perfection and qualities of majesty that Allah has affirmed for Himself and that His Messenger—may Allah bless him and grant him peace—has affirmed for Him.

3 - Denying all the deficiencies and imperfections that Allah has denied of Himself and that His Messenger—may Allah bless him and grant him peace—has denied of Him, without distorting or denying His attributes, specifying their modality, or likening them to those of creation.

4 - The attention the shaykh—may Allah have mercy on him—gave to principles and guidelines in this collection, which help students of knowledge understand the issues of this important subject.

5 - According to the righteous predecessors, Allah’s Most Beautiful Names are established solely through revelation and may not be derived from anything other than the texts

الخاتمة الحمد لله الذي بحمده تتم الصالحات، وأحمده على توفيقه، وأثنى عليه الخير كله لا أحصى ثناء عليه هو كما أثنى على نفسه، والصلاة والسلام على أشرف الأنبياء والمرسلين نبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه أجمعين. وبعد: ففي نهاية هذا البحث الذي حرصت فيه - قدر إمكاني - على إخراجه بصورة واضحة ميسرة، وقد عنيت فيه ببيان جهود العلامة عبد الرحمن السعدي في تفاسير الأسماء الحسنى، والذي أظهر فيها حرصه ﵀ الشديد على بيان معتقد السلف الصالح في باب الأسماء والصفات خاصة والشيخ ﵀ يشرح الأسماء الحسنى على منهج السلف معتمداً على الأدلة النقلية أدلة الكتاب والسنة. ومما خلصت به من هذا البحث يتلخص بالنقاط التالية: ١ - الإقرار والاعتقاد بجميع ما ثبت في الكتاب والسنة من أسماء لله، وصفات، وأفعال. ٢ - إثبات جميع ما أثبته الله لنفسه وما أثبته له رسوله ﷺ من صفات الكمال ونعوت الجلال. ٣ - نفي جميع ما نفاه الله عن نفسه وما نفاه عنه رسول الله ﷺ من النقائص والعيوب، من غير تحريف، ولا تعطيل، ولا تكييف، ولا تمثيل. ٤ - اهتمام الشيخ ﵀ بالقواعد والضوابط في هذا المجموع، وذلك مما يعين طلبة العلم على فهم مسائل هذا الباب العظيم. ٥ - أن أسماء الله الحسنى عند السلف توقيفية لا تؤخذ من غير النصوص
