«وَمِنْهُ الْمَذْهَبُ الْكَلَامِيُّ، وَهُوَ إِيرَادُ حُجَّةٍ لِلْمَطْلُوبِ عَلَى طَرِيقَةِ أَهْلِ الْكَلَامِ»
“The dialectical method presents an argument for the intended conclusion in the manner of the theologians.”
«لَوْ كَانَ فِيهِمَا آلِهَةٌ إِلَّا اللَّهُ لَفَسَدَتَا»
“If there had been gods other than Allah in the heavens and earth, both would have been ruined.”
Here the effect lies in reasoned demonstration, not simply an enhanced adjective. The conditional premise serves as an argument for the intended conclusion.
