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


It is water that is mixed with impurity and does not change any of its attributes. It is divine knowledge that requires separation from human attributes. If it is mixed with knowledge of the attributes that give the illusion of a connection between Him and His creation, then a kind of confusion occurs in the soul of the world, so that amount of knowledge is consumed by the attributes that share in it. The knowledge that requires exaltation from the point of view of the evidence of reason, and there is nothing like Him in the evidence of hearing, so knowledge of God remains on its basis of purity of exaltation in mind and law, despite the fact that we describe Him with such qualities that give the illusion of resemblance, for His descriptions, the Almighty, have not been changed, so all of this is proven to Him with verification, the like of which is nothing.

As for the internal ruling on that, it is that knowledge of God in terms of the mind that he acquired through thought, if it is mixed with a legal description of what the Sharia brought, then that knowledge of God is pure in itself, not purified, because of the attribute of resemblance that is indicated by it, such as their saying regarding the attribute of the speech of God that it is Like a chain on Safwan, and he brought all of the characteristics, and the entire Sharia is clear and acceptable. What he brought was accepted, so the mind was unable to escape from its evidence in denying the likeness, and it surrendered to the Sharia what it brought without interpretation.

Know that knowledge of the oneness of God is purification in general, so if you use it in the oneness of actions, then after this use you return it to the oneness of the essence. The scholars differed regarding God with a similar difference in the water used.

As for those who say that it is impure, then absolute monotheism is appropriate only for God Almighty.
