WAHABISM AND MONOTHEISM

Thesis Of Philosophers And Theologists Are Regarding Denial Of God's Corporeity And Locality

 

Keshful Murad Fi Sharhi Tajridulitiqad, page 154: 

 

Text: For every corporeality, there is a natural space required when left, from the nearest way. 

 

Explanation: Absolutely every corporeality wants a space to occupy. It is impracticable for any corporeality to be existing without space. Necessarily, that space is natural for the corporeality. Supposing corporealities are deprived of contingent affairs, they shall be either occupying no locality at all, or occupying the entire space. The earlier is impracticable, and the latter is essentially void and null. Corporealities may occupy some locations that should be natural. Accordingly, every corporeality should return to its position. Usually, corporealities take the most straight paths when return. 

 

Text: It shall be nonexistent when innumerable. 

 

Explanation: There is only one natural space for each corporeality. If there were two or more places, one should be left during the corporeality's occupying the other. This left place would no longer be natural. This is the meaning of his saying that nonexistence of naturality should be ruled when there are numerous places for a single corporeality. 

 

Keshful Murad Fi Sharhi Tajridulitiqad, page 317: 

 

10. Allah, The Exalted, Is Not Compound. 

 

Text: As well as composition, in all its forms… 

 

Explanation: This implies that necessity of existence requires denial of composition. This is evidenced by the fact that every compound being lacks its parts, since it shall be nonexistent unless these parts compose its being. Besides, parts of a being vary each other. Things lacking others are possible. Correspondingly, Allah, the Necessary, is possible if He lacks parts. So, necessity of existence rules of denial of composition. 

 

Composition may be either inherent or extrinsic. The first is that composed of genus and class while the second is that composed of material and form, such as corporealities or amounts. All these things are dispelled from Allah, the Necessary. The entire compound matters lack their parts, while the Lord has no genus, class or any other material parts. 

 

13. Allah is not incarnating in other beings. 

 

Text: …and incarnation… 

 

Explanation: Necessity of Existence requires that Allah, the Exalted, does not incarnate in other beings. Majority of intellectual people agree upon this point. 

 

Some of the Christians, who claim the Lord's incarnating in Messiah, and the Sufis, who believe in the Lord's incarnating in corporealities of some of their spiritualists, disagree. This faith is too ridiculous to be discussed, since the credible concept of incarnation means that a being, that is incapable of existing independently, finds a location in another on basis of fellowship. This meaning, however, is impracticable for Allah, the Exalted, since it necessitates possibility. 14. Denial of the Lord's combination 

 

Text: …and combination… 

 

Explanation: Necessity of existence contradicts combination. Previously, we have explicated that necessity of existence requires oneness. In case the Necessary Existent combines with another thing, it is most surely that thing should be possible. Thus, qualities of the possible existent will be born by the being combining it. As a result, the necessary existent will be transferring into a possible existent. 

 

Furthermore, in case of combination, the two combined beings should be either independently existent; hence, the combination will be null, or both or one of them will be nonexistent; hence, the combination will be null, too, or the necessity will be null. Consequently, the necessary existent will be possible. This is contrast. 

 

15. Denial of the Lord's occupying a locality. 

 

Text: …and locality… 

 

Explanation: This is one of the rulings required by the Necessary Existent. The entire corporalists disputed about this point. They believed in the Lord's occupying a definite locality. Followers of Abu Abdillah Bin Al­Karram were engaged in discrepancy in this regard. Mohammed Bin Heitham claims the Lord's being in an endless region atop the Throne. He also claims that the distance between the Lord and the Throne is infinite. Some claim the finitude of that distance. Others adopted corporalists' claim of the Lord's being over the Throne. All the previous beliefs are valueless, since every occupant is demonstrated and suffering contingent manners. Contingent beings, however, are not necessary.
