Page 132 - from Volume Three (Display Image)In His own image, and He has the character of a believer And the My brother, the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, was among his companions in the house of al-Khayzaran, and he took the hand of Ali and said, This is my brother. O my guardian, the gathering place for the divine names that have influence on the possible ones is a true brother. Covering and revealing, and it is one of the most difficult sciences in conceptualization, as the influence of power is not valid except with the agreement of the two brothers, not one of them, and through them the objects of the possibles appeared and the knowledge of beings of God came into existence. It is only an innovator, so the knowledge of God is established by it, either by defining God or by the power in which He was created by which he arrives at knowing God from a different angle. Specific and no other than, so whoever exalted himself with this power knew him and disbelieved from his likeness, and who likened him to this power, he knew him and was ignorant of exclusivity, rather his disbelief. Whoever created God because He created them only to know Him.The creation of God in belief *** and I witnessed all that they believed When the images of worry seemed to change *** they said what they witnessed and did not deny it He is the one who persecuted them behind them *** with all that they said and believed If they separate him from the partner, then they have deprived him of usury, as they witnessed The monotheistic law alone has excused *** and the polytheists are wretched, even if they worship it Likewise, the people of doubt will lose more than them *** and those who deny the existence of those who found it And those who say he negates him have also broken *** like the three when they did not find him Save them from deification when *** The people of happiness with guidance worship Him If the people agreed when he deceived them *** and kept away from falsehood, they would expel him The perfect gnostic knows him in every form in which he manifests and in every form in which he descends, and the non-knowledge does not know him except in the form of his belief and denies it if it manifests itself to him in another, just as he still binds himself to his belief in him and denies the belief of others. Is it to him in himself and he is the one with whom the divine news occurred and transmitted to him by the rational evidence that the thinking power gave him. Beliefs are not the same as what is required. So, no one saw anything but his belief, whether he knew him in every form, for he believed in him the acceptance of the manifestation and the manifestation of the manifested to him in every form, or he knew him in a restricted form that is not other than that. So the Messenger of God, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, said that he is the one who transforms in the images In the authentic hadith and the presumption of the case, that he did not create the creation except for them to know Him, so they must know Him either through revelation or intellect or by imitation of the possessor of revelation or intellect, and vision is subordinate to knowledge. to his vision, but the knowledge of him is the knowledge of the beholder in that that he is unable to know him, so he knows at that that the one who is this equivalent is God. |
