Page 81 - from Volume Two (Display Image)The saints got rid of this mixed light, and the nobles were burned by the lights of the rosaries, and the characteristics of the great ones, the light of sight burned them. [ The science of the saints is the science of self-attributes ascribed to the truth ]So the saints do not know more than the subjective attributes in terms of what is attributed to the truth described by them, not in terms of what is indicated by the evidence of archeology. Or information except from its selves and its notables, so they do not take as evidence for the thing or the known except the same of that known, and that is due to the elevation of occasions and the flow of Oneness in every known thing. With the knowledge of others and the rest of the saints, they do not have this rank [ The evidence and the signified do not meet, and nothing is known by another .]How can a thing be known by another, and the evidence and the signified do not meet, for if one of them is negated by the existence of the other, you are ignorant of the imagined occasion, for that signified you only knew it when it appeared to you by itself. The signified while you knew the evidence, you are not aware of it. This is what made the great men not take the matter of the command, but they take every matter for himself and his eye, so they know these God by God and the Knower by the Knower and the names by names. They never testify, and on this their rulings were carried out [ The whereabouts of the saints on the Day of Resurrection and the Greatest Day of Perjury ]And as for their whereabouts on the Day of Resurrection, they are those who do not fear and are not grieved by the greatest dread, because they have nothing to follow and they are in themselves secure, so the prophets will envy them in that place in particular. [ Those who have knowledge of God have the power to transform .]And as for those who are stubborn in knowledge of God, they have the power to transform into thin layers of transfiguration in images, so they are sent to each transfiguration in a thin, mock form of themselves that sees what the people of the crowd see while they are in that condition in their palaces, enjoying the images of their natural bodies and with God in terms of being one of the Essence with their realities and in The dune when seeing their spiritual chips that they created for the images of the manifestation and others, their condition is if they are in the gardens, they are not in the dune. (Question 60) What is the struggle to stand? The answer is that some of them enter into each other in order to get rid of what they are in from the severity and distress of that day [ Types of waders in standing ]Some of them are engaged in a request to intercede for him, and among them are those who are engaged in a request to be kind to him to save him from the horror of that day, and among them are those who are engaged in a request for someone to testify for him, and among them are those who are engaged in a request for an opponent to seek retribution, and among them are those who are engaged in order to hide and hide from their opponents, and among them are those who are engaged in order to hide modesty from their acquaintances. Abu Imran Musa bin Imran Al-Mirtli told him one day you did not underestimate your acquaintances, he said, Maybe I will not be there with that. So he was ashamed of my acquaintances. If you meditate [ Those who were mocking God's revelations ]... If they are like them, if you stay with them and they are with this ideal, and if you do not go with them, God Almighty said: Do you not have the pleasure of God and a wideness, so you will be abandoned in it, O my servants (those who believe in them) And He guides the way(Question sixty-first) How did his affair become like the blink of an eye? The answer is that the conscience in his command returns to standing [ Qualities for transmission, but it is said with a kind of simile ]So know that the qualities are not transmitted, but are said with a kind of simile, for its matter is one, i.e. one word, like a blink of an eye. |
