Page 241 - from Volume Two (Display Image)The unseen is what we perceive by legal news or intellectual consideration, which is not usually apparent in the senses [ The eye of insight to perceive the world of the unseen and the eye of sight to perceive the world of testimony ]So we say that the world of the unseen is perceived by the eye of insight, just as the world of testimony perceives with the eye of sight, and just as the sight does not perceive the world of testimony except darkness, so long as the veil of darkness or similar obstacles are not lifted from it. The sights are likewise the eye of insight, its veils are the rays and desires, and the observation of the unkind from the dense natural world into the likes of these veils, so it prevents him from perceiving the kingdom, I mean the world of the unseen. The two lights came together and revealed the unseen for what it is and for what has occurred in existence, but between them there is a subtle meaning, that is because the sense is veiled by the wall, the excessive distance, the excessive proximity, and the eye of insight. I remember him [ The light that spreads over the existential civilizations and the fortune of those who reveal them ]And it is that the light that radiates from the Presence of Generosity to the Knower of the Unseen in the Existential Civilizations does not pervade all of them, nor does it radiate from it over them with respect to this revealer except to the extent of what God Almighty wants, and that is the station of revelation. What will be done to me or to you if I follow except what is revealed to me with the utmost clarity of Muhammadan saying, or from behind a veil, no matter what appears from those who happened in this place something of that on its appearance in the case of a person is the highest levels of intelligence and it is the position of the book of God. Indeed, in that there are signs for those who are marked from the mark, and it is the sign, as we said, and he never errs, unlike the judgmental physiognomy. [ Hadrat al-Samamat in which are the images of the children of Adam and their conditions ]And then another revealed about firasah, and that is that God made in the world the presence of features in which are the images of the children of Adam and their conditions in their times until their separation, and they are hidden from all the higher and lower creatures except from the pen and the tablet. From his faith in particular, he draws him from the divine names, the dominant believer name, and in his hand is this presence, and that lamp from the presence of the divinity, the believer takes it. According to what we have mentioned, he placed in one of the squares of this heart the presence that we mentioned. From there he knows the movements of the world and its secrets. End part one hundred and three ( Chapter one hundred and forty-nine on knowing the station of creation and its secrets )The creation of the human being and the creation *** is like kohl in the eyes and kohl And if his reward is doubled, when will he attain the rank of property and messengers? He is the only one with whom time lives *** He is the one who arranges the rules and states It degrades from its might, it overpowers the necks for him *** and it is the confirmer of symptoms and ailments [ Attributing morality to God and to man ]The Messenger of God, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, said: God would not forbid you from usury and take it from you. And it is a true hadith, so he included himself with us in what he forbade us from in the ruling. All manners are divine attributes, all of them are noble and all of them are in the human progeny, and therefore it is addressed to them. Some of those who have no knowledge of the facts say that in man they are created and in truth they are created. In view of the precedence of the existence of the truth over the existence of the servant because it is necessary for existence for himself and the human being exists by his Lord, so the existence benefited and the creation benefited from it. So he called it creation, not creation, and it is not a creation except what was inherent in it in the origin of its origin, so he has no knowledge of the origin of man or the information of the Prophet, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, that God created Adam in his image. That it be in God, you were created by God with what is true |
