Al-Jawāb as-Sahīh li-man baddala dīn al-MasīhIbn Taimiya

“But whoever performs righteous deeds while he is a believer shall have no fear of injustice or diminution.” ⦗20:112⦘

And He, Exalted is He, says:

“So whoever believes in his Lord will have no fear of loss nor of oppression.” ⦗72:13⦘

And He, Exalted is He, says:

“You are repaid only for what you used to do.” ⦗27:90⦘

And He, Exalted is He, says:

“We never punish until We have sent a messenger.” ⦗17:15⦘

As for those—whether Muslims or followers of other faiths—who maintain that every conceivable act lies within the power of Allah Most High, holding that injustice means that which is impossible and outside the scope of power, they contend that what He will or will not do can be known only through the indication of a truthful report or through customary precedent. The majority, however, infer—both from such truthful reports and from other proofs—that certain things are indeed impossible for Allah.

{وَمَنْ يَعْمَلْ مِنَ الصَّالِحَاتِ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ فَلَا يَخَافُ ظُلْمًا وَلَا هَضْمًا} [طه: ١١٢] . وَقَالَ تَعَالَى: {فَمَنْ يُؤْمِنْ بِرَبِّهِ فَلَا يَخَافُ بَخْسًا وَلَا رَهَقًا} [الجن: ١٣] . وَقَالَ تَعَالَى: {هَلْ تُجْزَوْنَ إِلَّا مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ} [النمل: ٩٠] . وَقَالَ تَعَالَى: {وَمَا كُنَّا مُعَذِّبِينَ حَتَّى نَبْعَثَ رَسُولًا} [الإسراء: ١٥] . وَمَنْ قَالَ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَغَيْرِهِمْ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمِلَلِ: إِنَّهُ يَجُوزُ مِنْهُ تَعَالَى فِعْلُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، وَأَنَّ الظُّلْمَ هُوَ الْمُمْتَنِعُ الَّذِي لَا يَدْخُلُ تَحْتَ الْقُدْرَةِ، فَهَؤُلَاءِ يَقُولُونَ: إِنَّمَا يَعْلَمُ مَا يَفْعَلُهُ وَمَا لَا يَفْعَلُهُ بِدَلَالَةِ خَبَرِ الصَّادِقِ أَوْ بِالْعَادَةِ، وَإِنْ كَانَ الْجُمْهُورُ يَسْتَدِلُّونَ بِخَبَرِ الصَّادِقِ وَبِغَيْرِهِ عَلَى مَا يَمْتَنِعُ مِنَ اللَّهِ.
