Page 543 - from Volume Two (Display Image)Knowledge witnesses it and the eye denies it *** because it is non-existence and deficiency is known If it were not, it would not have been an eye or an attribute ***, nor existence, nor judgment and morphology Do you not see that Al-Tastri ink proved it *** and it is correct that there is no distortion in it [ Absolute perfection that does not accept addition is specific to God Almighty ]What he meant by saying easy is that this is a secret if such a hero appears. Know that perfection that does not accept addition is only for God, because he is beyond the worlds. Al-Rahmaniyya by way of briefing, for that when confronting the copy letter by letter, it affects and is not affected or inclined, and justice does not affect virtue or virtue in justice. On the one face that befits him, he does not accept change or influence, just as light does not accept the colors of glass in terms of himself and his eyes, even though you look at the light red, yellow, and green, varying in the diversity of the colors of the glass. Do you not look at him in the air space that is between the place of the glass and the place of the colored reflected light? The air space that is between what appears of colors and between glass and like a rainbow, the perfect is he who does not accept excess and we are in more knowledge of this world and the hereafter. Understand the Absolute, for it is an amazing secret in divine knowledge, so we witness it from being a god, not from being a self, and God says the truth and He guides the way " Chapter Two Hundred and Forty-Four "I am absent from him and I have an eye that sees him *** in the presence of the unseen and absence what they attended There is nothing in existence except in his testimony *** and his absence, so look at the unseen and think This is backbiting from your condition *** So backbiting the heart is a state that is not considered From the one who is absent and there is no one in the universe *** but existence, there is no eye or trace [ The backbiting is the absence of the heart from the knowledge of what is going on in the conditions of creation to occupy the heart .]Know that backbiting among the people is the absence of the heart from the knowledge of what is going on in the conditions of creation to preoccupy the heart with what it responds to. Other than that, the backbiting is present in all sects, so the absence of this group is right from creation until it is attributed to him in terms of honor and praise. Among the scholars of God is absence by creation from creation, for they have known that existence is nothing but God through the forms of the rulings of fixed entities that are possible, and he is not absent except in the form of an eye judgment in the existence of truth, so he is absent from the judgment of another eye form that gives in the existence of the truth what these objects and their rulings are not given by creation, so what is absent except by creation About creation in the presence of truth, the common people are a disaster for some of this issue, it is missing from it in the presence of truth and its absence. That is one of the characteristics of God D from backbiting in the world and presence, and we have indicated that it is sufficient in this section, and God says the truth and He guides the way Chapter Two hundred and forty-five in attendanceAnd it is the presence with God, glorified be His praise, and His names are sanctified with backbiting. This is how it is with the people My presence with the truth in my occultation *** My presence with it is the present |
