الوعد و الوعيد : بين الجزاء الإلهي و الفعل الإنساني عند المعتزلة

Abstract EN

Summary: The promise and threat is the third of the five Mu'tazila principles.

Although the principle of promise and threat is mainly related to the divine act, but it is not separated from human behavior.

The promise must be fulfilled to the benefactor, and the threat must be carried out against the wrongdoer.

Because God promised the obedient a reward, and promised punishment to the disobedient, and that he inevitably does what he promised and what he threatened, and it is not permissible for him to fall back and lie.

This is what distinguishes the position of the Mu'tazilites, who believe that a promise is entitlement, from other Islamic sects; especially, the Ash'aris and Ahl al-Sunnah, who consider it to be a preference as promise and threat are the epitome of God's justice, and that removing intercession for the one who committed the major sins among the Mu'tazilites is a negation of this title.

Therefore, are promises and threats deserving, or are they preferred by God? Is it permissible for God to break his promise or threat? And what is its relationship between the act of a slave and God's reward
