Page 524 - from Volume Three (Display Image)And in it the fruits appear, I mean in the branches, and the benefits are obtained as they are in the place of needs, and then there is only Him If I had a way to you *** I would not have evidence against you That is why you are a mighty Lord *** and I am the servile slaves I was amazed at a god and a slave *** and in the house of Ali is horrified Addition and the literal summation of *** that we are adil God said it, he didn't say it *** So I said it when he says And from that, this is the matter that *** is inevitable and sufficient So act on what I say if you are perfect in it And if he sees you, he will be fair to him If you disobey him, you will be on the brink of it [ The truth does not speak to its servants, nor does it address them except from behind a veil .]And know that the Truth does not speak to His servants and does not address them except from behind a veil an image manifests to them in which it will have that image as a veil from Him and a proof of it, like the apparent bodily image of a human being. It is created and its matter is as we mentioned, so how about the Creator, so he does not witness the houses in the rhetorical confrontations except with pictures of them that take what you translate for him from the facts and secrets, and they are the Fahani Sunnah and the limit of confrontations from the blindness to the earth and what is between them. Blindness, or the command came to it to the earth, then that is a descent, not a confrontation, and the place in which the meeting took place is called a house. May God bless him and grant him peace, so he collected for him in this presence the images of the whole world, and the knowledge of the names of these images was the knowledge of Adam, peace be upon him, and their notables to Muhammad, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, with their names that he gave Come to Adam, peace be upon him, for Adam was one of the first ones whom God gave Muhammad, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, their knowledge. When he said about himself that God gave him the knowledge of the first and the last And from it God Almighty gave David, peace be upon him, the wisdom and the separation of the discourse and all the papers and books revealed from this presence were issued and from it he dictated the truth to the supreme pen what he wrote in the preserved tablet and the words of the whole world is his absence and his testimony from this presence and all are the words of God, it is the first presence because the possibilities are the first that they have from God The Almighty in creating it is a saying, Be, and cut the hearing from the possible ones. This speech and the last of their call will be in Paradise. Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds. When God says to the people of Paradise, I will be pleased with you, so I will never be angry with you. [ Movement can only happen when something is moved on purpose by the mover .]And know that the movements were not only those who moved in something with the intention of the mover, was the mover himself or something else, so the pictures spoke of his movement, rather of his movement in what he moved in according to his intention, so the pictures are formed according to the place and the intention that was from the mover like letters in the outgoing soul From a person if he intends to reveal a specific letter in order to find his eye in his hometown, the image of the letter is opened in that place, so he assigns that letter a name specific to him that is distinguished from others if he is mentioned just as its image is distinguished from the image of others if he attends, according to the extension of the soul, then if he intends to show a word in its essence Intentionally, when revealing specific letters within himself, certain letters do not appear Others are joined in the hearing to each other, and the word is spoken in the hearing, which is the ratio of the combination of these letters. A compound is composed of simples, and the compound is not something that is more than its simples except the ratio of the summation of the simples. |
