Then, once the Power has manifested, it becomes mandatory to negate the form."

And al-Kalazi, Allah sanctified his secret, stated:

"The declaration of transcendence is invalid except after affirming the manifestation."

And Sheikh Ali bin Mansur, Allah sanctified his secret, stated:

"And following your affirmation of bringing into existence (al-ījād), declare Him transcendent above the attribute of physical bodies."

Furthermore, it is stated in Risālat al-Sabīkah:

"It is impermissible to negate the form except after its affirmation, for the sake of establishing existence and power; because the form is the proof of the Power, and were it not for the form, we would never have established that Power."

And Sheikh Ibrahim Abd al-Latif, Allah sanctified his secret, stated:

"Verily, the affirmation of manifestation and existence, alongside the negation of confinement and boundaries, is that upon which the pivot of monotheism turns, and through it lies the triumph over repetition and hesitation."
