Page 198 - from Volume Four (Display Image)And the thing does not cost itself, so there must be a place that accepts the speech to be valid and from a way that we prove the actions to the creature as required by the wisdom of assignment and negation corresponding to the proof. And there is no judge but confusion, and then there is none but God. Some of them, when these rulings meet in his secret, would say, Oh confusion, oh astonishment, oh burning that does not read, and what is this ruling for a presence other than this divine presence The Lord s Presence, which is the name of the Lord.The Lord is our owner, and the Lord is our reformer *** and the Lord has made us firm, because he is the constant If I did not exist and the truth created me *** I would not have known that I am the lost being The truth created me from him and supported me *** through him, that is why the silent speaker claimed [ The name of the Lord has five ordinances ]And it has five rulings of affirmation on coloring and authority over people who dispute the truth and consideration of the interests of the possible and slavery that does not accept emancipation and the connection of life to the usual causes. Do you not see the sun, which is the cause of the night and the day, running unstable by night or day, do you not see to the planets, all swimming in an orbit? God sent down in it which of the planets it was from the planets, God, when descending into every substance of the individual from the world of the pillars, narrates what is known only to God, who created it and takes place in the middle assembly of the heavenly spirits that are under the concave of the zodiac ark of sciences with what the truth, the Mighty and Majestic, deserves from the praises on What God has bestowed upon them of divine knowledge, each knows his prayer and his glorification, and God is All-Knowing of what they do. You have the zodiac, to the source of souls and minds, to the blindness, from the sciences that the divine names give, which leads them to praise God with what He should, the Exalted, in terms of who they are, not in terms of names, for the divine names are more encompassing than they are, for their attachment to the implementation of rulings is infinite. The presence of the people of conflict over the truth is that the articles differ in God greatly from one power, which is the thought of many people with different temperaments, moods, and strengths. He has a willingness by which he accepts the breath of the soul in him, so that from the blowing and the leveling of the natural body, a spiritual light appears, mixed between light and darkness, its darkness is a shadow, and its light is light, and its shadow is what the Lord extended, so He is my Lord. And God has mentioned that He made the sun a ray of light and the moon a light, so we made its light a light for the special face that God has in every being, or from the fact that the efflorescence of light on the mirror of an equatorial body, then appeared in the reflection as the light of the sun as it appears from the top So we called the partial spirit Nora, because God made the moon a light, so it is light by making, just as the sun was shining by making, and it is in itself a light, and the moon in particular is erased, so for the moon is annihilation and for the sun is eternal For the moon has annihilation in every face *** and for the sun to shine and stay And for the beautiful face with all the good *** we have from him cheerfulness and meeting We protect his good from every eye *** just as he is protected from the bark of trees We descended into the sky on the presence of *** His Throne surrounds him blindness He has the desire and control in us *** He has the rule of sana and he has the sana If he approaches, his seat is spacious *** and if he rises above us, we are praised He has the rule of will in my existence *** He is the chosen one to do what He wills |
