Page 436 - from Volume Three (Display Image)Three hundred creations, a person must be a believer and a disbeliever with one of the morals of God, and all of God s morals are good and benign. A reward and every human being must be kind to something from God s creation, for he has a reward for that, for the darkness of the fire is the level of the torment as long as the torment does not cease. God is most generous that you forget His purpose *** and who is good if the Most Merciful does not find And when God, the Most High, made the person in charge a mind and manifested himself to him, he had a contract and a covenant with God from the point of view of his intellect and his sight. That rational consideration compelled him, which is the lack of God in essence and his likes. Then he sent to him a messenger from himself, and he took another covenant on him according to what was established in the first covenant, so man became with God between two covenants A rational covenant and a legal covenant, and God commanded him to fulfill them. Rather, the situation requested him to do so in order to accept it. So when I came to these two covenants, and my knowledge of them reached the amount that was reported to him by his witness, I said In the heart there is a contract of Hajj and a contract of guidance *** Do you see that he who has two contracts will be saved? My Lord, by what You gave me, I taught him *** What is with me when you bore me? What is all that you cost me I can bear *** from me to obtain salvation and that Reason and Sharia call for loyalty *** My heart, I don't have two hands to fulfill If you are my epithet, then the fulfillment will be fulfilled *** or if you are you, then they are not my intention As for what I say if you call me, it is The saying of the Messenger of God, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, on the authority of his Lord, that he said, I was his hearing, his sight, his hand and his supporter. Likewise, if I mean myself, that is, you are the doer and the creator of work and fulfillment, not me, since there is no creation in our contract, but the matter is all for God. His saying, And man was the most argumentative thing, and the strongest argument was that which God argued with. [ Indeed, a tree is blessed to all the trees of Paradise like Adam because of his sons .]And know that a tree is blessed to all the trees of Paradise, like Adam when he appeared from him from sons, for when God planted it with his hand and others, He breathed into it of His spirit, and as He did in Mary, He breathed into it of His spirit. The soul has the knowledge of names because it was created with the two hands, so in total he attained the command, and he had the caliphate, money, and children the adornment of this world s life, and he took charge of the truth. From its reality, it is exactly what it is, as it gave the kernel of the palm tree and what it bears with the kernels that are in its fruits, and everyone who takes over the right himself from his own face with regard to some matter has a transparent and an advantage over those who do not have this competence or this direction. And God says the truth and He guides the way. Chapter Four in the Astronomy of the HousesIt is the planet and the setting of the heavens and the earth, the pillars, the generators, and the pillars by which God holds the sky to fall on the earth because of His mercy to those in it, despite their disbelief in His grace. [ That God created the orbiting ark in the middle of the ark, the Atlas ]Know that God created this orbiting ship in the hollow of the atlas ark and what is between them He created the gardens and what is in them. The planets that have been called the positions of the moving segments in them, and there is no difference between them and the other planets that are not in positions in their course and with regard to the rulings pertaining to their descent, which we mentioned in the zodiac, the Almighty said: And the moon We have ordained by stations. The bribery are estimations and assumptions in this body, and the notables of these potentials are known only by these planets, just as I did not know that they were mansions except by the landing of the car in them. |
