The Qadariyyah, together with everyone else who has turned away from the Sunnah and the mainstream community and embraced misguidance:
Khalid ibn ʿAbd Allah al-Qasri once delivered the ʿId al-Adha sermon and said, “O people, offer your sacrifices—may Allah accept your offerings. As for me, I shall sacrifice al-Jaʿd ibn Dirham, for he alleges that Allah did not speak to Moses directly and did not take Abraham as an intimate friend.” He then stepped down from the pulpit and slaughtered him, for al-Jaʿd was a heretic whose execution was obligatory. The people of the Sunnah and the Community thanked him for this, and Ibn al-Qayyim composed in his Nuniyyah:
For this Khalid al-Qasri offered al-Jaʿd in sacrifice
On the day the sacrificial beasts are slain;
Every champion of the Sunnah praised that offering—
Blessed are you, O brother of the oblation.
Jahm succeeded al-Jaʿd, and the school was therefore named after him, for he was the one who publicized it, combining jabr (absolute predeterminism) with tajahhum (negation of the divine attributes). Hence the poet said:
I marvel at a devil who openly summoned the people to the Fire,
And even his name was drawn from Jahannam.
(226) The Qadariyyah:
Among them are the deniers of divine decree, namely the Muʿtazilah. They claim that human actions are the servants’ own creation, having no place in Allah’s creation or His will. Because of this they were called “the Magians of this ummah,” for the Magians affirmed two creators—one for good and one for evil—whereas the Qadariyyah affirm multiple creators alongside Allah.
Such groups are among the deviant sects that have opposed the Book and the Sunnah.
