Page 117 - from Volume One (Display Image)They were by way of sanctification and they stood with desires. God told us: Except that they are the fools, dreams when desires possessed them, and they withheld the pleasure of hearing the impact of the spray on the people of the stage, but they do not know that the higher is distinguished from those below him, otherwise what use is he to say if he said it to him? Nothing is but finding things according to the best law. Glory be to Him who is unique in creation, invention, mastery and creativity (Arrived in the plaintiffs lawsuit) [The Hypocrites: From the Path of Secrets]And when they meet those who believe, they say, We believe. And when they are alone with their demons, they say, We are with you. The sent scholars have an origin and inheritance that prevents its disclosure, so there is no way to explain them. So, the characteristics of the lawsuits were when they met these five, they said, We believe. Their imaginations, so they took idols within themselves, they set them up in the place of their gods, so when they were alone with their demons, they said by seizing heedlessness over them, and the place was empty of the ranks of faith. We are with you. And they dealt falsehood by revealing the truth Hypocrisy is valid for them. They stand in the place of a witness, and he is a spirit who came with the owner of the material, so let the person see the reality of the meeting, for he is the muezzin of an advanced separation, then they met in a way they did not know, but appeared to them from it a good appearance, so they behave with her and they could not bear more than that, so they said we were safe, then they collapsed on their heads in seclusion with the devil, which is distance like meeting They said: We are only mocking at the quality that we have met, so reflect on this verse from the reality of the truth at dawn and the removal of doubt with the removal of the curtain and the lifting of obstacles. Taste, there is nothing wrong with you, so see and manage and you will be guided, God willing, the tenth part has been completed (Chapter Six) On Knowing the Beginning of Spiritual Creation(In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful) Who is the first to exist in it, from whom it was found, in what example was it found, and when it was not found, and what its purpose is to know the greater and lesser orbits of the world. Look at this tight existence *** and our existence is like a teacher's cloak And look at his successors in their domain *** from the eloquent and the foreigner There is no one among them who loves his god *** except that he mixes it with the love of the dirham It is said that this is the servant of knowledge, and this is the *** of Abd al-Jinan, and this is the servant of Hell Except for a little bit, for they *** are drunk with it without a sense of illusion They understood the servants of God, and no one knows them except him, not the servants of the benefactor So he told them when he wanted them to return *** to their shortcomings from every ambiguous knowledge Al-Muqaddim s knowledge is in the simplests alone *** and its basis is not limited to him And the reality of the circumstance that you concealed from *** His likes and example was not concealed And knowledge of the reason for which I found *** the eye of the worlds in the oldest model And the end of the matter for which there is no end *** in which you know is the greatest, the greatest |
