Page 369 - from Volume Three (Display Image)![]() And what is mentioned about the polytheist is that this one to whom he was called is a disgrace to him because he was called from one aspect and he testifies to the abundance of his existence which the truth made evidence of him in He who knows himself knows his Lord And he does not know himself except as one in many or many in one, so he does not know his Lord except through the form of his knowledge of himself. To Him, the Most High, between choosing and guidance, so he associates himself with choice and guidance, and united Him in the two matters, be gentle with Him, and forget Him, so that He may know that He is the Forgiving, Most Merciful of the extravagant upon themselves. A course of action that did not go beyond the right, just as the Sharia that he recommended to those who mentioned it in this verse are varied in rulings, some of which supersede each other, and the whole has been commanded to establish it and not to be separated in it due to the separation in it, so it calls for plurality to one eye or unity to many facts as you wish, so say what you want from what you want does not change the meaning All are in the judgment of existence *** as all are in the eyes of witnesses So that his mercy may prevail *** and the flags of ingratitude be made clear He will be merciful to him who claims to be wretched or happy This is the abode of Hell *** This is the Gardens of Eternity And God is Exalted in His Essence *** from being isolated from the limits This link is broad in scope, in it is the knowledge of the commands that are specific to the Lawgiver alone, who is the Messenger, the knowledge of the divine names with which he is guarded, the knowledge of the owner of the kingdom, the meaning of the name of God and his description of monotheism in his saying there is no god but one God and adding to the pronoun the likeness of your God and to the apparent is like The God of Moses and the God of people is the ruling One, or it changes by changing the addition or the epithet, and the knowledge of the Lordship and the fact that it never came from God without restriction and the knowledge of the inspiration and the difference of the name over it by the ways from which it comes Second ConnectionFrom this section which is related to it from the second house of the houses mentioned in this book, and it includes sciences, including the science of separating between what occurs by which the perception of things occurs and that by which only one himself perceives, and the knowledge of the storage of the seed, the kernel, and the grain of what is purified from them if they are sown in the earth and how It indicates the knowledge of the world s exit from the unseen to the martyrdom, because the seed does not give what the right has stored in it until after it is buried in the ground, so it splits from what it has stored from stems, leaves and seeds like it from the kernel kernels and from the seed grains and from the seed to seeds so its same appears in many of what came out of it so learn from this what The grain from which the world came out and what it gave by itself in what appeared from the grains, and why is it based on what appeared from it other than the main grains? If not what is stored in it by force, it would not appear in actuality, so know that and this is all from the treasures of generosity and includes the knowledge of the absolute command in his saying Do what you want and what is restricted to action. Specific and different formulas in that [ Evil is not from God ]It includes the science of adding evils to other than God because they are reasonable to the world He said, may God bless him and grant him peace, and evil is not against you So he affirmed it in his own eyes and denied adding it to the truth, which indicates that evil is not a thing and that it is non-existence. And He knows, decreed, created, plural, and united, so he said: I, we, and I, and I, and that is why he grew old against the polytheists, for it is reasonable that we are what is reasonable. She rose up in the heart and blinded him from perceiving the realities, which by perceiving him is called a scholar. The Almighty said: And whoever was dead, then We gave him life and We made for him a light by which he can walk among people, as one whose likeness is in the darkness. He has grasped everything that is stronger than knowledge and ignorance of it. And he did not realize it. That is why the Messenger of God, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, mentioned in God that his veil is light, so revealing does not occur except with the light that is parallel to the light of sight. Do you not see bats do not appear except in the light parallel to the light of their sight, which is the light of twilight and includes knowledge |
