To a state, because its construction is based on the four natures: humidity, dryness, coldness, and heat. So long as these four natures are balanced, then its owner is balanced as well.

And whenever one nature overcomes the others, balance is lost and the balance of its owner is also lost, said Abu Hanifa.

May Allah be pleased with him, I acknowledged the maker and the made, the overcoming and the overcome, because you denied it as you said one of the natures overcomes the others and the others become overcome.

So it is established that there is an overcoming in wisdom for the world, for we have gone beyond your issue and said that the overcoming is none but the maker, glorified is His power, the eternal, guides.

Then Abu Hanifa said: I have the right to speak with the opponent until he guides, and I do not have the right to speak until he becomes silent, because silence is a miracle and the miracle is for the prophets, not for others.

So when Heaven and Hell are present with us, and the Hour is not anything because it is not created and does not exist with us contrary to the Mu'tazilah, because they said that the Hour is created except that it does not show to the living, so when a person dies it shows itself to him, and you argued by His saying, "Whoever dies, his resurrection has come to stand."
