and highlighted it, as if the goal was to point out the enormity of the error in concluding by refraining from what is commanded and doing what is forbidden. And what he said about it: The act and the abandonment, their realities are different, and their meanings are contradictory due to the conception of negation and affirmation in them. Negation and affirmation in the same essence are impossible. Then, the implication of the act in the branch is obedience, and the implication of disobedience is opposition. The reality of obedience is different from the reality of opposition, and the implication of obedience is obedience, and the implication of opposition is disobedience. Obedience is the opposite of disobedience.

The implication of the command: - Secondly The Usuliyyun differed greatly in the implication of the command. Some went to the extent that the command implies obligation. Others went to the extent that it implies recommendation. A third group paused in it. They were known as the pause-takers. We will see them later. Ibn Tumart had a clear opinion on this issue, based on considering obligation as the implication of the command, just as he criticized the other opinions. This is what we will discuss in detail below: The command implies obligation: The Mahdi stated in several places in his writings that the command of Allah and the command of His Messenger are one command. It is always to be understood as obligatory when it is absolute, and that there is no way to divert it from its obligation after it has been established, except by abrogation or specification from the one who imposes it and the one who is obligated, which is Allah Almighty. This is the doctrine of all the Companions and those who followed their path.

However, if a specific indication is found, the command may be diverted by it to other implications, multiple, including recommendation. And including honor in the Almighty's saying: "Enter Paradise for what you used to do." (Al-Nahl / 49) And including humiliation in the Almighty's saying: "Indeed, you are the mighty, the generous." (Al-Dukhan / 43) And including threat, challenge, and permissibility.

The Mahdi used five pieces of evidence to support the implication of the command as obligatory when absolute. Same source: -178 What is most sought after: Ibn Tumart (179) Same (180) See: Kashf al-Asrar by Al-Bukhari: who reduced the meanings of the command to seventeen. 107 5344
