Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
The belief of the Ahl al- wa al-Jama’ah regarding divine decree () is that everything occurs by the preordainment of Allah, and that Allah is the Causer of causes. To state that Allah is the Causer of causes is permissible, because it falls under the category of reporting information, not naming. The scope of reporting information about Allah is broader than the scope of His names and attributes.
