So, in His -azwj Knowledge was the Desire, and in His -azwj Desire was the Intention, and in His -azwj Intention was the Pre-Determination, and in His -azwj Pre-determination was the Ordainment, and in His -azwj Ordainment was the Accomplishment.
وَ الْعِلْمُ مُتَقَدِّمٌ عَلَى الْمَشِيئَةِ وَ الْمَشِيئَةُ ثَانِيَةٌ وَ الْإِرَادَةُ ثَالِثَةٌ وَ التَّقْدِيرُ وَاقِعٌ عَلَى الْقَضَاءِ بِالْإِمْضَاءِ And the Knowledge was precedent upon the Desire, and the Desire is second, and the Intention is third, and the Pre-determination occurs upon the Ordainment by the Accomplishment.
فَلِلَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى الْبَدَاءُ فِيمَا عَلِمَ مَتَى شَاءَ وَ فِيمَا أَرَادَ لِتَقْدِيرِ الْأَشْيَاءِ فَإِذَا وَقَعَ الْقَضَاءُ بِالْإِمْضَاءِ فَلَا بَدَاءَ فَالْعِلْمُ فِي الْمَعْلُومِ قَبْلَ كَوْنِهِ وَ الْمَشِيئَةُ فِي الْمُنْشَإِ قَبْلَ عَيْنِهِ وَ الْإِرَادَةُ فِي الْمُرَادِ قَبْلَ قِيَامِهِ وَ التَّقْدِيرُ لِهَذِهِ الْمَعْلُومَاتِ قَبْلَ تَفْصِيلِهَا وَ تَوْصِيلِهَا عِيَاناً وَ وَقْتاً Thus, for Allah -azwj Blessed and High is the Change of Allah -azwj ’s Decision (الْبَدَاءُ) with regards to what He -azwj Knows when He -azwj Desires.
Regarding what He -azwj Intends for the Pre-determination of the things, so there is no Change in the Decision. Thus the knowledge regarding the known is before its coming into being, and the Desire regarding the desired is before its reality, and the Intention regarding the intended is before its establishment, and the Determination of these information is before it detail and it’s arriving into visibility and time.
وَ الْقَضَاءُ بِالْإِمْضَاءِ هُوَ الْمُبْرَمُ مِنَ الْمَفْعُولَاتِ ذَوَاتِ الْأَجْسَامِ الْمُدْرَكَاتِ بِالْحَوَاسِّ مِنْ ذَوِي لَوْنٍ وَ رِيحٍ وَ وَزْنٍ وَ كَيْلٍ وَ مَا دَبَّ وَ دَرَجَ مِنْ إِنْسٍ وَ جِنٍّ وَ طَيْرٍ وَ سِبَاعٍ وَ غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ مِمَّا يُدْرَكُ بِالْحَوَاسِّ And the Ordainment is by the Accomplishment, the conclusion from the deeds with the embodiments which can be felt by the sensory perception from the ones with the colours, and smell, and weight, and measurement, and what creeps and crawls from the humans, and Jinn, and birds, and wild animals and other than that from what can be felt by the sensory perceptions.
فَلِلَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى فِيهِ الْبَدَاءُ مِمَّا لَا عَيْنَ لَهُ فَإِذَا وَقَعَ الْعَيْنُ الْمَفْهُومُ الْمُدْرَكُ فَلَا بَدَاءَ وَ اللَّهُ يَفْعَلُ مَا يَشَاءُ So, for the Blessed and High there is the Change of Decision (الْبَدَاءُ) in it from what there is no physical reality to it.
