Abstract

Saffor Bukhari is considered one of the representatives of the creed established by Imam Maturidi in the 5th-6th centuries AH. He is recognized as a scholar of the third period who made a significant contribution to the development of Maturidi teachings. His work titled "Talkhisul Adillah li Qawadi Tawhid" pertains to the science of Kalam and gained great fame during his time. In this work, the author discusses the issue of "Ru'yatullah" (the vision of God) in a manner specific to Maturidi Hanafi scholars. He refutes the incorrect and baseless beliefs of various misguided sects such as the Mu'tazila, Kharijites, Najjariyya, Zaydi, and Jahmi regarding this issue by relying on the Qur'an and Hadith and providing rational and textual evidence against them.
