Glorification of the Sanctified from an Odious Flaw like Falsehood

A masterpiece of kalām refuting the absurd belief that falsehood is included in the Divine Power of Allāh táālā. This was originally a Mútazilī belief which was buried with the Mútazilah long ago; it was revived in the subcontinent by Ismāýīl Dihlawi and promoted by his followers – the elders of the Deobandī school. Khalil Ambethwi wrote in Barāhīn that nobody from Ahl as-Sunnah argued against this idea and it was a matter of common difference such as the minor differences between Ĥanafīs and Shāfiýīs. Alahazrat was only 35 when he wrote this in 1307.
