The Prophet, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, says about the matter of the Day of Resurrection, so I praise him, meaning if he asks for intercession with praises, God will teach me, but I do not know it now. God remains infinitely creative in us, for the sciences are endless, and the people s purpose of knowledge is nothing but that which relates to God in revelation and significance, and God s words do not run out, and they are the mains of His beings. That knowledge is the preparation of another knowledge, cosmic or divine, so if he knows what has happened to him that there is something that his preparation demands that happened to him with the knowledge obtained from the first preparation, he thirsts to attain that knowledge.

Does the existence of the opposite make it rational? Erasure is proven, but its ruling is not ***, so search for a scholar with it to separate it [ The erasure is the removal of the descriptions of the habit and the removal of the defect ]Know that erasure according to the sect is the removal of the descriptions of the habit and the removal of the defect and what the truth has concealed and denied. He said, Most High, God erases what He wills and establishes, so erasure is proven, which is expressed by abrogation according to the jurists.
