Al-ṢafadiyyahIbn Taimiya

Intercession with Him takes place only by His leave: He is the One who grants permission to the intercessor, appoints him to intercede, and then accepts his plea. Thus He has neither partner nor helper in any respect, a truth that bespeaks the perfection of His power, His creative act, His Lordship, His absolute self-sufficiency, and His being the Eternal Refuge.

Fourth, His words:
“and they encompass nothing of His knowledge except what He wills.” (al-Baqarah 2:255)

These words show that it is He who teaches the servants whatever portion of His knowledge He wishes, and that they possess no knowledge save what He grants them. He alone is the One who educates and guides; no one can know a thing unless He teaches it—just as He alone creates and brings into being. He “created and proportioned, destined and guided.” The very first revelation of the Qur’an declares:

“Recite in the name of your Lord who created—created man from a clinging clot. Recite, and your Lord is Most Generous, who taught by the pen, taught man what he did not know.” (al-ʿAlaq 96:1-5)

Fifth, His words:
“and safeguarding them does not weary Him.” (al-Baqarah 2:255)

Guarding the heavens and the earth neither burdens nor tires Him. This proves the completeness of His power and that no hardship or fatigue can touch Him. A parallel verse states:

“We certainly created the heavens and the earth and whatever lies between them in six days, and no weariness touched Us.” (Qāf 50:38)

The negation of weariness affirms His perfect power and the absence of anything that would undermine it.

Similarly, His saying:

“Vision cannot encompass Him, while He encompasses all vision.” (al-Anʿām 6:103)

Here He denies that vision can fully encircle Him, which points to the immensity of His majesty. The verse indicates that even when He is seen, eyes do not encompass Him; it affirms the possibility of seeing Him while denying that any gaze can ever surround His reality, establishing the vision of Him and the impossibility of encompassing Him.

الشفاعة عنده بإذنه فهو الذي يأذن للشفيع وهو الذي يجعله شفيعا ثم يقبل شفاعته فلا شريك له ولا عون بوجه من الوجوه وذلك يتضمن كمال القدرة والخلق والربوبية والغنى والصمدية. الرابع: قوله: {وَلا يُحِيطُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ عِلْمِهِ إِلاَّ بِمَا شَاءَ} فإن هذا يقتضي أنه الذي يعلم العباد ما شاء من علمه وأنه لا علم لهم إلا ما علمهم فبين أنه المنفرد بالتعليم والهداية لا يعلم أحد شيئا إن لم يعلمه إياه كما أنه المنفرد بالخلق والإحداث فهو الذي خلق فسوى وهو الذي قدر فهدى وأول ما نزل من القرآن: {اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ خَلَقَ الإِنْسَانَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ اقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ الأَكْرَمُ الَّذِي عَلَّمَ بِالْقَلَمِ عَلَّمَ الإِنْسَانَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ} (سورة العلق ١ ٥) . الخامس: قوله: {وَلا يَؤُودُهُ حِفْظُهُمَا} أي لا يكرثه ولا يثقل عليه وهذا يقتضي كمال القدرة وتمامها وأنه لا تلحقه مشقة ولا حرج ونظير هذا قوله تعالى: {وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ وَمَا مَسَّنَا مِنْ لُغُوبٍ} (سورة ق ٣٨) فإن نفي اللغوب يقتضي كمال قدرته وانتفاء ما يضادها من اللغوب. كذلك قوله تعالى: {لا تُدْرِكُهُ الأَبْصَارُ وَهُوَ يُدْرِكُ الأَبْصَارَ} (سورة الأنعام ١٠٣) نفى الإدراك الذي هو الإحاطة وذلك يقتضي كمال عظمته وأنه بحيث لا تدركه الأبصار فهو يدل على أنه إذا رئي لا تدركه الأبصار وهو يقتضي إمكان رؤيته ونفى إدراك الأبصار إياه لا نفي رؤيته فهو دليل على إثبات الرؤية ونفي إحاطة الأبصار به
