A--- Kuthibitisha imani katika Qadhaa na Qadar ya Mwenyezi Mungu kuna daraja nne:

A--- Affirming faith in the Divine Decree is of four ranks:

Daraja ya kwanza: Kuthibitisha imani katika Elimu ya Allah inayojumuisha kila kitu.

First rank: Affirming faith in Allah's Knowledge that covers everything.

Hakuna hata uzito wa chembe ya mchanga (au chungu mdogo) wala chini ya hapo wala kubwa zaidi mbinguni na ardhini linalotoroka Ujuzi Wake. Alijua yote kuhusu viumbe Vyake kabla ya kuviumba: riziki zao, muda uliowekwa kwao, maneno yao, matendo yao, mienendo yao, siri zao na mazungumzo yao ya hadharani, pia wakazi wa Jahannamu miongoni mwao na wakazi wa Peponi.

Not even the weight of an atom (or a small ant) or less than that or greater in the heavens or the earth escapes His Knowledge. He knew all about His creatures before creating them: their sustenance, appointed terms, sayings, deeds, moves, secrets and public conferences, the residents of Hell from among them and also the residents of Paradise.

Daraja ya pili: Kuthibitisha imani katika Kuandikwa kabla ya yote haya (na mengineyo)

Second rank: Affirming faith in the Prerecording of all these (and others)

na kwamba Yeye ameandika na kuweka kumbukumbu ya kila kitu kitakachokuwepo au kitakachotokea. Hii pia inajumuisha kuamini Al-Lauh Al-Mahfuz (Kitabu cha Maamuzi).

and that He recorded and wrote down all that will exist or take place. This also covers affirming faith in Al-Lauh Al-Mahfuz (the Book of Decrees).

Daraja ya tatu: Kuthibitisha imani katika Mapenzi Yanayopenya ya Allah na Uwezo Wake Kamili wa kila kitu, na kwamba yote mawili yanahusiana. Yanahusiana kwa yale yaliyokuwepo na yale yatakayokuwepo, lakini hakuna uhusiano kati yao kwa yale ambayo hayakuwepo wala yale ambayo hayatakuwepo. Kwa maana kile ambacho Allah amekitaka kikatokea, hakiwezi kisitokee; hii ni kwa sababu ya kutotaka Kwake, wala si kwa sababu ya kukosekana kwa Uwezo Wake juu yake. Allah anasema: {Allah hayuko hivyo kwamba kitu chochote kilicho mbinguni au ardhini kimtoroke. Hakika Yeye ni Mjuzi wa kila kitu, Mwenye uwezo wa kila kitu} (Fatir, 44).

Third rank: Affirming faith in the Penetrative Will of Allah and His Comprehensive Omnipotence and that both are correlative. Both are correlative in regard with what had been and what would be, and there in no correlation between them in regard with what had not been or what would not be. For what is ever willed by Allah, it Allah, it would not certainly be, due to His Unwillingness and not to the lack of His Omnipotence over it. Allah says: {Allah is not such that anything in the heavens or in the earth escapes Him. Verily, He is AllKnowing, All-Omnipotent}. (Fatir, 44)

Daraja ya nne: Kuthibitisha imani kwa Allah Mtukufu, Muumbaji wa kila kitu. Na kwamba hata uzito wa atomu (au chungu mdogo) au chini ya hapo au zaidi, mbinguni au ardhini, si chochote ila kimeumbwa na Yeye. Utukufu ni Wake; hakuna muumba, wala Mola, isipokuwa Yeye.

Fourth rank: Affirming faith in Allah the Almighty, the Creature of everything. And that not even the weight of an atom (or a small ant) or less than that or greater in the heavens or in the earth but is created by Him. Glory is His, there is neither creator, nor Lord but He.
