The sectarian aspect at Al-Jahiz

This message titled "The Ash'ari Side in Al-Jahiz" highlights the true nature of Al-Jahiz's Ash'ari doctrine based on his various literary works and messages, in addition to the little that has been mentioned about him in different books of sects, classes, and biographies, both old and new. And indeed, Abu Uthman called for learning doubt because it leads to the coolness of certainty; if doubt did not exist, certainty would not be achieved. And it is the first stage that a seeker of knowledge should begin with, as Al-Jahiz explains this purpose: "And after this, know the places of doubt and their conditions that necessitate it, so that you may know the places of certainty and the conditions that necessitate it, and learn doubt in the doubtful matters thoroughly. If nothing else, it is to recognize hesitation and then verification; that would be something necessary. Then know that doubt exists in levels among all, and they did not agree that certainty has levels in strength and weakness."
