إن علة حدوث البيت إما الإمكان، أو الوجود، أو الجوهرية، أو الجسمية، أو التأليف
The cause of a house's origination is proposed as either possibility, existence, substantiality, corporeality, or composition.
This classical example illustrates division: a single judgment has several competing causal candidates. An original case may possess many attributes without each one being the cause of the judgment.
The next task is to assess the relation of each candidate to origination.
