Taqavi Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 What is the difference between the Wilayat at-Takwiniyyah and the miracle? In order to examine the difference between the Wilayat at-Takwiniyyah and the miracle, the definition of each must first be stated. In the definition of the Wilayat at-Takwiniyyah, it is stated; Wilayah at-takwiniyyah means that the Prophet and Imam have the authority and the power to control the universe and can take over the world of creation, like giving life to a clay bird and making it come alive.[1] In the definition of the miracle it is stated; The word "معجزه" (miracle) is derived from the word ""عجز (inability) which means, the opponents of the Prophet are incapable of confronting the Prophet[2]. In other words; A miracle is an act that disables others[3]. In the term, it also means an extraordinary thing that is in accordance with the claim of a person and others are unable to do it[4] and it is done to prove the divine position such as prophethood and Imamate.[5] The difference between the Wilayat at-Takwiniyyah and the miracle: According to the stated definitions, it can be said; The realization of a miracle by the hands of the Prophet and Imams does not mean the Wilayat at-Takwiniyyah, but the performance of miracles and extraordinary deeds are the signs and results of performing Wilayat (guardianship), and the owner of the Wilayat at-Takwiniyyah has the ability to perform extraordinary deeds and miracles. Therefore, Wilayat at-Takwiniyyah does not mean miracles and the realization of extraordinary deeds, but the owner of the Wilayat at-Takwiniyyah, in the case of exercising guardianship, has the authority and the power to control the universe and can take over the world of creation. Some scholars have specified this point;[6] Ayatollah Safi Golpayegani has stated in his book that miracles are evidences of the existence of the power of Wilayat at-Takwiniyyah. This case is mentioned in frequently Hadiths and denying them is not wise.[7] Based on this, from the point of view of later scholars, miracles are the effects and signs of the Wilayat at-Takwiniyyah.
