An objection asks why power is not sufficient to account for the existence of a possible thing. What is gained by a further attribute called takwīn?
The Māturīdī answer distinguishes capacity from the principle of actual origination. Power relates to possible existence and nonexistence, while takwīn concerns bringing a possible thing into existence. Will specifies the relevant time and manner.
The distinction is meaningful only if the principle of creating adds a genuine explanatory difference rather than simply renaming power. The opposing account therefore argues that the realized relation of power, with specification by will, explains the same event without an additional real attribute.
