Page 244 - from Volume Two (Display Image)Disposition in all and it is an honorable station that knows and makes sense, but what one of God s creation has achieved is specific to the truth, and the truth does not appear in it unless the people of Hell take their homes and the people of Paradise their homes. Everyone is satisfied with what they are in by pleasing the truth. It is strange that we did not see anyone who was warned by God s creation, even if they had undoubtedly taught him and preserved him, and God knows best except for the protection of themselves and mercy towards creation, because denial is quick to him from the listeners. It is hard not to understand him, even if he is deprived. Peace be upon him ( Chapter One Hundred and Fifty on Knowing the Place of Jealousy which is Concealment and Its Secrets )How amazing is jealousy in the world *** and God described us with it most amazing And we said God is jealous of *** what the Sharia has decided and what we are going And we accepted it, but it is *** from the most difficult matter to attribute And it is in terms of our thoughts *** an imposition of the same impossible is established And unveiling is like the law in his saying *** and the Lord of disclosure is not veiled And the matter is true and it is a miracle *** for the sake of which their minds flee Al-Shibli made his ruling *** that it has a ruling and this is more difficult And he is one of the people of disclosure in our knowledge *** He gave an example to us And according to the people of thought, they claim *** on the one who gives them the madhhab That it is from the world of a slip *** and it is closer to the rule of blindness [ Divine jealousy is proven by faith, but with a specific tool ]Know that God supported us and you with a spirit from Him, that jealousy is a divine attribute It was reported in the report that the Messenger of God, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, said about Saad that Saad is jealous, and I am more jealous than Saad, and God is more jealous than me. And in this hadith there is a great issue between the Ash aris and the Mu tazila, and it is an authentic hadith. Jealousy is proven by faith, but with a specific tool, which is the eternal lam or the man or the ba, and it is impossible with the tool Ali, which occurred from Al-Shibli, either a mistake or before God knew the knowledge of the knowers. Jealousy in the way of God is jealousy for God or God Or for the sake of God, and jealousy for God is impossible [ From the perfection of the world is the existence of an additional imperfection in it ]The realization of its being a divine attribute, and it is an attribute that seeks others, and that is why it is called jealousy. The addition of imperfection to the complete al-Muqtadar, that is why he said, He gave everything its creation, which is perfection. divine It is mentioned in the report that God created Adam in his image It was in the power of man for the sake of the image to forget his servitude, and that is why he described man as forgetfulness. [ The perfect slave in the image and the claim of Lordship ]By His Majesty, when the truth knew that this servant with the divine power with which God has perfected the perfect image must claim in the epithets what is right of God to seek the perfect form of that epithet and it is from some of the divine epithets. The rest of the divine attributes, when he also learned that he does not stop at that and that he must give the perfect image its right to be characterized by divine attributes and that it goes beyond what is forbidden to it such as greatness, pride and tyranny And he said, Pride is my robe, and greatness is my robe Likewise, he said, God puts a stamp on every arrogant, mighty heart, for this is the eye of jealousy.
