there are two pieces of information so there are two kinds of knowledge. the second aspect is that their saying that everything is known to him by the second intention is an irrational statement for no matter how comprehensive his knowledge is of others as he encompasses himself he would have two different pieces of information and he would have knowledge of them and the multiplicity and diversity of the known necessitates the multiplicity of knowledge since one piece of information accepts separation from the other in the imagination so knowledge of one of them is not the same as knowledge of the other since if it were it would be impossible to estimate the existence of one without the other and there is no other no matter how much the whole is one. this does not differ by being expressed by the second intention.
هناك معلومان، فهناك علمان الوجه الثاني هو أن قولهم إن الكل معلوم له بالقصد الثاني، كلام غير معقول فإنه مهما كان علمه محيطا بغيره كما يحيط بذاته كان له معلومان متغايران وكان له علم بهما، وتعدد المعلوم وتغايره يوجب تعدد العلم إذ يقبل أحد المعلومين الفصل عن الآخر في الوهم، فلا يكون العلم بأحدهما عين العلم بالآخر إذ لو كان لتعذر تقدير وجود أحدهما دون الآخر، وليس ثم آخر مهما كان الكل واحدا. فهذا لا يختلف بأن يعبر عنه بالقصد الثاني.
