The Belief Of The Philosophers That Claim Adherence To Islam Concerning The Unity Of Lordship

Tie existence of Allah is a matter that is obvious, and the evidences for it are seen in every moving and inert object. It is a fact that has been inherently ingrained in mankind. However, certain groups that wrongfully and deceitfully claim adherence to Islam, delved into this matter with their sick minds and perverted logic, all the while following pagan Greek philosophers. They presumed that Allah does not have any attributes, or actions, or creation, of control, or rights, but rather He is the Primary Cause whose use has now ceased and whose role is no longer needed. So it is as if they have abandoned Him to the furthest parts of their minds and intellects (And indeed Allah is exalted over what they say!) It is possible to divide them into three categories, based on the particular methodology that they claim to follow: 1) The Pure Philosophers. Their belief- in summary - is that which has been stated above (except for al-Kindi, who stated that Allah is the One who has created the world out of nothing). 2) Tie Esoterics (Batinees). They added on to the previous belief the ‘denial of the opposite’, so they claimed that He is non-existent, and not non-existent, and He is not described with Attributes, and not nondescribed with Attributes. 3) Tie Soofi Philosophers. They held the same belief as the pure philosophers, but added to it the claim of wahdat a/-wujood (that everything in existence is the essence of Allah), and this claim is part of what some of the Greek philosophers claimed. I have shown the falsity of all these claims from two perspectives: I) from a logical perspective I have shown that they are amongst the most misguided people in their logic and intellect, even though they claim that the mind is the primary source of guidance, and they do not give any weight to any other source; II) from the perspective of the Sharee’ah: I have proven that their claim; contradict the religion of Islam in totality. So their beliefs are neither intelligent nor religious. And May Allah shower His Mercy upon our Prophet Muhammad and his followers.
