He brought forth the sun, and He brought forth its recesses in the heavens and the earth, and He expanded everything in mercy and knowledge, and He settled on the Great Throne, when He judged the orbit of the sun in its rotation and on the water by its stability and its course, so they are in every degree in concealment and appearance. What you conceal and what you reveal is God, there is no god but He, Lord of the Great Throne. ( Twenty-third monotheism ) From the soul of the Most Merciful is his saying, He is God, there is no god but He, to Him be praise in the first and the last, and to Him belongs the judgment and to Him you shall be returned. There is no differentiation in the world or chosen thanks to God over others, and we saw the matter other than this, in existence, a year in the assets. The Almighty said. Some said, We preferred some of the Prophets over others. There is a lot of this in the Qur an, from the preference of each gender over others, even the Qur an, which is the word of God superior to all other books Its status is the word of God, and the Qur an itself prefers some of it over others with its attribution to God that it is his undoubtedly his speech.

It is said that he divided it among its people five dinars for each person, so the first thing I took from it was five dinars, on which there is a shining light greater than the brightness of the brightest star in the sky that has a ray, and I see the same book as the eye of my family. In the handwriting of Zain al-Din Abdullah ibn al-Sheikh Abd al-Rahman, known as Ibn al-Ustad, the judge of the city of Aleppo, he wrote it on the dictation of the great judge Baha al-Din ibn Shaddad and the dowry from beginning to end. And his Psalms are the numbers of this hidden Book and its lines, and He deposited it with every verse in the Books and a Surah, and made it manifest into existence in its best form, and He made its informants in the upper and lower worlds famous, and His verses are unlimited and not restricted, and His words are in every tongue in every time and time and are mentioned like this on this narrator to the end of it if it has another handwriting. Like atoms, when I returned to my senses, I found myself writing |
