Learn About IslamShow Notes
Explanation of al-Mandhūmah al-Ḥāʾiyyah of Imām Abū Bakr ibn Abī Dāwūd as-Sijistānī (raḥimahullāh), with the explanation of Shaykh Zayd al-Madkhalī, taught by Ustādh Abu Maymūnah Saʿīd Ali (hafidhahullāh)
• The line on seeing Allāh: "Say as he ﷺ said", and the ḥadīth of Jarīr: "You will see your Lord as you see this moon"
• The ḥadīth likens the seeing to the seeing, not Allāh to the moon; guarding Fajr and ʿAṣr as a means to that bliss
• The Jahmī denies Allāh's Right Hand, "and both of His Hands are right, pouring down with blessings"
• The Muʿaṭṭilah: the Jahmiyyah, the Muʿtazilah, and those below them in negation, the Ashāʿirah, Kullābiyyah and Māturīdiyyah
• Allāh has two Hands, mentioned in the dual, the singular and the plural; attributes of the Essence and attributes of action
• Refuting the Mushabbihah from the Revelation, the intellect and what is perceived
• Five angles refuting those who make the Hand mean power or blessing, including "what I created with My two Hands" (38:75)
