What distinction does the Māturīdī answer draw against identifying takwīn with power?
The Attribute of Takwīn: Reality, Eternity, Created Effects and Relations
- Capacity versus the actual principle of origination
- Will is the actual principle of creating while power only specifies time
- Takwīn is knowledge of the act, whereas power is its specification
- Capacity and actual origination are identical with no conceptual distinction
