Al-TadmuriyyaIbn Taimiya

—or to what belongs to Him alone by virtue of its being necessary, possible, or impossible; no created being may share with Him in that, and no creature may participate in any of His exclusive prerogatives.

As for the things you have denied, they are established by both revelation and sound reason. Calling them “likening” or “corporealism” is merely a ruse aimed at the uninformed, who imagine that whatever someone tags with such a name must automatically be rejected. Were this tactic admissible, every proponent of falsehood could simply attach repellent labels to the truth so that people would repudiate what is proven by scripture and intellect alike.

By precisely this stratagem the atheists have corrupted the minds and faith of many, driving them into the gravest unbelief and ignorance and into the furthest reaches of error and misguidance.

The “Composition” Objection

If the deniers of the attributes say, “Affirming knowledge, power, and will entails a plurality of attributes, and such composition is impossible,”

أو جوازه أو امتناعه، فلا يجوز أن يَشركه فيه مخلوق، ولا يُشركه مخلوق في شيء من خصائصه ﷾. وأما ما نفيتَه فهو ثابت بالشرع والعقل، وتسميتك ذلك تشبيهًا وتجسيمًا تمويه على الجهال، الذين يظنون أن كل معنى سماه مسمٍّ بهذا الاسم يجب نفيه. ولو ساغ هذا لكان كل مبطل يسمي الحق بأسماء ينفر عنها بعض الناس، ليكذب الناس بالحق المعلوم بالسمع والعقل. وبهذه الطريقة أفسدت الملاحدة على طوائف من الناس عقولهم ودينهم، حتى أخرجوهم إلى أعظم الكفر والجهالة، وأبلغ الغي والضلالة. [شبهة "التركيب"] وإن قال نفاة الصفات: إثبات العلم والقدرة والإرادة يستلزم تعدد الصفات، وهذا تركيب ممتنع.
