Al Quran is Revealed,Uncreated
The Qur an is the Speech of Allah Allah (swt) says in the Holy Qur an,
And if anyone of the Mushrikun (polytheists, idolaters, pagans, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah) seeks your protection, then grant him protection so that he may hear the Word of Allah (the Qur'an), and then escort him to where he can be secure, that is because they are men who know not. [Surah TawbaAyaah 6] " Do you not see those who claim that they believe in what was revealed to you and to those before you? They wish to resort to At-Taaghoot for judgement" [Surah NisaAyaah 60]
And it is authentically narrated from Jabir ibn Abdullah radhiallahu anhu (and others)that the Messenger of Allah(saw) said: Is there any man who can take me to his people,for the Quraish have prevented me from conveying the Speech of my Lord [ alarajulunn yahmilooni ila kaumihi fa inna quraishan kad manaooni an ooballagha kalama rabbi ] [SunanTirmidhi 2925,Ibn Majah(Kitabus sunnah,Ch:Fima Ankaratil Jahmiyah,Hadith no.201) and Abu Dawood 4734.Classified as Saheeh] So,it is evident from the Quran and Sunnah that Al-Qur an revealed on Muhammad(saw),is the Speech of Allah and hence uncreated.

Abu Bakr bin ayaassaid, Whoever says that the Qur an is created is a kafir,zindeeq and enemy of Allah.Do not sit with him nor talk to him 30 Imam Shafi s famous student,AlBuyutisaid, Whoever says that the Qur an is created is a kafir 31 Maaz bin Maaz (rahimaullah) said, Whoever says that the Qur an is created is a kafir 32 Alhumdulillah! It now stands crystal clear that Abu Hanifa was a kaafir.Even after all this some feeble aqaid people try to prove that Abu Hanifa made tawbaah for having such a belief,a refutation of which is provided below fromImam Waqee s(rahimaullah) and IbnHibban s (rahimaullah) work.

He it is Who sent down As-Sakinah (calmness and tranquillity) into the hearts of the believers, that they may grow more in Faith along with their (present) Faith. And to Allah belong the hosts of the heavens and the earth, and Allah is Ever All-Knower, All-Wise. [Surah Al-FathAyaah 4] Those (i.e. believers) unto whom the people (hypocrites) said, "Verily, the people (pagans) have gathered against you (a great army), therefore, fear them."But it (only) increased them in Faith, and they said: "Allah (Alone) is Sufficient for us, and He is the Best Disposer of affairs (for us). " [Surah Al-Imran Ayaah 173]
It is authentically narrated from the Prophet(saw) that, I have not seen anyone more deficient in intelligence and religion perhaps deterring a determined,wise man - than one of you. [Narrated by Bukhari(304) and Muslim(80)] Narrated by Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, Faith has over seventy branches or over sixty branches, the most excellent of which is the declaration that there is none worthy of worship (in truth) but Allaah, and the humblest of which is the, removal of what is injurious from the path: and modesty is the branch of faith. [Narrated By Muslim(56)]
Imam Bukhari(rahimullah) in his book writes, Murjiah invented the aqeedah of Jahmia and Jahmis are actuallyKuffar. 35 Masr bin Kuddaam was a murji and when he died, SufyanThawri(rahimaullah) refrained from being a part of his funeral prayer.36 Jahmees are kafir and one should not offer prayer behind them.[ al jahmiyatokuffaro la yusallikhalfahum ]37 One should not offer prayer behind the likes of Jahmiyaah and Mutazila.[ la yusallikhalfahummasaluljahmiyawalmutazila ]38 Indeed,they(the murjiah) are khabbis.[ innahum le khasba ]39 People of the Batil sects such as shia,khwarij,jahmiyaah,mutazila should not be spoken to.One should neither say salaam to nor make ties of relationship with them.40

I said something about Abu Hanifa then Hammad bin zaid told me to keep quiet and said that whoever talks about AhlulBidah in his family circle is like he slips in urine and goes understanding Haq as Batil and Al Batil as Haq and he has no respect left in the society.Hammad bin zaidthen said, Do you know who was abuhanifa? He used to debatefor theMurjia and when feared for his life he turned tofiqh of ahlur ray and began to do qiyaas with one hadith on another and this is forbidden. 57 Abu Hanifa asked Abdullah ibnyazeedto become a murji but he refused.58 Tahir bin Muhammad said: Imam Wakee narrates, one day ibnAbiLaila,ShareekThawri and abuhanifa were together and Abu Hanifa suddenly said that whosoever marries his own mother then his emaan is the same asGabriel.Wakee says that because of these incidents imam shareekthawri called all of abuhanifa s companions as mardood and he never talked to him again.59 Abu Hanifa along with Qais Maser and his son Umar accepted the madhab of Murjiah.60
