التعريف
Two contrasting things: one is positive and the other belongs to the non-existent. However, to describe them as existing and non-existing is not absolute; it is conditional on the place being able to admit them normally. To give an example: eyesight and blindness. Blindness means that one who normally sees cannot see.
