[ Commanding something does not necessitate prohibiting its opposite ]

(Check the original text in Arabic ...)


FUTMAK.COM الفتوحات المكية: الصفحة 407 من الجزء One

For us, commanding a thing does not require prohibiting its opposite, for what is mentioned in the utterance of that, so if it is presented and spoken of, we accept it. If you do not do what God has commanded you to do, then you have disobeyed Him. If commanding a thing were a prohibition of its opposite, the person would have committed two sins or as many sins as There are no opposites for that which he is commanded to do, and there is no one to say it, for a person is only held accountable for abandoning what he was commanded to do or doing what he was commanded to avoid and nothing else, so he bears one sin and one bad deed, so he will not be rewarded except the like of it, and the matter has taken its due due, both apparent and hidden, in truth, morals, and morals, and God speaks the truth, and He guides the path.
