A comparative reading of the theological foundations of the creation of disabled children from the perspective of the Imamiyyah and Ash'ari in the light of divine justice

One of the most frequent questions of faith is always the question of the difference between humans during creation. According to the verses and narrations, God has created man to the utmost possible perfection, but it is seen as evidence that some people are born with defects. The present study aims to compare the theological foundations of the creation of disabled children from the perspective of the Imamiyyah. And Ash'areh, in the light of divine justice, intends to present a clear picture of how these people were created and to answer the upcoming challenges. The research method is analytical-inferential, the research data has been analyzed through document review, record taking, and with an argumentative approach. The sources of Imamiyyah and Ash'ari theologians, the research community and other sources related to the objectives of the research have been used as explanatory and supplementary sources.

From the point of view of Ash'ari theologians, creation is a direct act of God and other beings have no optional intervention, and justice is nothing but a divine act, but the Imamiyyah believes in a long chain of actors, and they consider an important role for humans in creation and creation, therefore, the domain of God. considers it as a beauty of imperfect creation.
