Jalal al-Din al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti

Were they created without any agent? Were they the creators
Jalal al-Din al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti

Or were they created out of nothing? that is without a Creator. Or are they the creators? of themselves. It makes no sense for a created thing to have no creator nor can a thing that will cease to existent have the power to create. There must be a Creator of them and that is God the One so why do they not affirm His Oneness and believe in His Messenger and His Book?

Jalal al-Din al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti

Or do they possess the treasuries of your Lord? in the way of prophethood provision and other matters so that they are able to assign what they will exclusively to whom they will? Or are they the ones in control? or are they the mighty ones who hold sway? the verb from musaytirūna is saytara similar in root form to baytara ‘to practice veterinary medicine’ or bayqara ‘to corrupt’ ‘to ruin’.

If that is what they assert Then let their eavesdropper let the one claiming to be able to listen in on their conversations on top of this ladder produce a manifest warrant a plain and evident proof. Now on account of the similarity of this assertion to their assertion that the angels are the daughters of God He exalted be He says
