The Meccan Revelations: al-Futuhat al-Makkiyya

Inspiring quotes from the Meccan Revelations (... more)


The oneness of the will, so attributing it to the truth if it is described by it, is only in terms of what is possible for him, not in terms of what the truth is for him. God Almighty said, “But the word is due from me.” And God Almighty said, “Is it upon him who has the word of torment imposed upon him and says, ‘The word is with me will not be changed,’ and how good is what he has accomplished.” This verse: And I am not unjust to my servants. Here he draws attention to the secret of destiny, and with it was God’s decisive proof against His creation. This is what befits the side of truth and the one who refers back to the universe. And if We had willed, We would have given every soul its guidance, so whatever We wished, but in order to connect, the possible is capable of guidance and misguidance in terms of its reality, so it is the subject of division. Accordingly, the division is rejected. In the same matter, God has only one command regarding it, and it is known to God in term

It is apparent that the invention is reasonable due to the absence of an example in the witness. How is the invention valid in a matter for which the Almighty is still known and witnessed, as we have stated about God’s knowledge of things in the Book of Knowledge of God

The divine names are ratios and additions that go back to a single essence, since it is not true that there is a multiplicity of entities in it, as some of the theorists who have no knowledge of God have claimed. If the attributes were additional entities and there is no god without them, then divinity would be caused by them, so it is not impossible that they are the essence of God. A thing is not a cause of itself or does not exist, for God cannot be an effect due to a cause that is not itself, because the cause is prior to the effect in rank, so it follows from this that God lacks being an effect of these additional entities that are his cause, and it is impossible. Then the thing that is the effect cannot have two causes. These are many and there is no god without them, so it is invalid for the names and attributes to be specific things in addition to His essence. God is exalted above what the wrongdoers say.

The image in the mirror is an isthmus body, like the image that a sleeper sees if it agrees with the external image. Likewise, the dead, the uncovered person, and the image of the mirror is the most truthful of what the isthmus gives if the mirror is of a special shape and of a specific size. If it is not like that, then you will not believe in everything that it gives, but rather believe in some, and know that The shapes of mirrors differ, so the images differ. If looking at the visible objects by reflection, as some see it, the observer would perceive them as they are in terms of the largeness and smallness of their body, and we see in the small polished body the large visible image in itself is small, and likewise the large polished body enlarges the image in the eye of the beholder and takes it out of its limit, and so does the wide one. And the long and wavy, then the reflections do not give that, so we can only say that the smooth body is one of the things that gives the ima

The most perfect creation that has appeared in all beings is the human being according to everyone, because the perfect human being was created in the form, not the animal human being, and the form has perfection, but this does not necessitate that it is the best in the sight of God, for it is more perfect in the aggregate. If they say, God says, “The creation of the heavens and the earth is greater than the creation of people, but more.” People do not know, and it is known that he does not mean greater in crime, but he means greater in meaning. We said to him that you are right, but whoever says that it is greater than him in spirituality. Rather, the meaning of the heavens and the earth in terms of what each one of them indicates through the separate meaning of the specific arrangement of their bodies is greater in meaning than a body. Man, not from all of man, and for this reason the movements of the heavens and the earth emanate from the manifestations of the generators and fo

Right has only one proven psychological attribute. It is not permissible for it to have two or more, since if it had, its essence would be composed of one or more of them, and composition in its right is impossible, so proving an additional, affirmative attribute over one is impossible.

Since the attributes are relative and additions, and the ratios are nihilistic matters, and there is only one essence in all aspects, therefore it is permissible for the servants to be merciful in the end, and the lack of mercy does not extend to them to infinity, since there is no compulsion for them to do so, and the names and attributes are not entities that necessitate a ruling. On things, there is no objection to mercy being inclusive of everyone, especially since it has been reported that it precedes anger. If the anger ends with it, the ruling is for it, so the matter is as we said. That is why God Almighty said, “And if your Lord had willed.”
