Know that the name “the One” applies to everything, from a king, an astronomy, a planet, nature, an element, a mineral, a plant, an animal, and a human being, despite it being a divine epithet in His saying, “Say, ‘He is God, One.’” and He made it a universal epithet in His saying, “And He does not associate anyone with worshiping His Lord,” and none of the types we have mentioned are of these types. Who are all that is other than God, and we have limited them, except that some of them worshiped individuals. Some of them worshiped angels, some worshiped planets, some worshiped heavens, some worshiped elements, some worshiped stones, some worshiped trees, some worshiped animals, and some worshiped jinn and humans. < /p >

The sincere person in the worship that is intrinsic to him is that he only intends the one who created and created him, which is God Almighty, so this worship is pure for him, and he does not deal with it with anyone of those whom we have mentioned, that is, he does not see it in anything of what we have mentioned, neither in terms of the specificity of that thing nor in terms of The attribution of oneness to Him, for the beholder also has oneness, so let him worship himself, for it is more worthy of him and not be humiliated by someone like him, since he must be humiliated by someone other than the oneness of his Creator, so he will be higher in spirit than one who humiliates a creature like him because of his oneness .

There is nothing in the universe that is not harmful and beneficial. This amount of general divinity is in it and through it calls the humility of creation to Him. Don’t you see that man is His honor over all other beings is due to His caliphate. How can he lack the need to drink a medicine that he naturally hates, because he knows that it is beneficial for him? So he worshiped it out of a sense of compulsion, and if it is one of the medicines that pleases the mood of this sick person, and he knew that using it would benefit him, then he worshiped it out of a sense of volition and love.

For there is nothing in the universe that does not contain harm and benefit, so with this divine attribute He attracted the souls of those in need of Him due to their lack of benefit and repelled harm. This led them to worship things, even if they did not realize it, but the necessity of them disbelieves them in that, for man lacks the most base and incomplete things in existence. It is a place of solitude when he is in need. He abandons the worship of his Lord. Rather, it is not permissible for him according to Sharia to perform it while he is feeling distressed, so he hastens to solitude, especially if the need for it is excessive and compels him to the point that his mind is deprived of what he believes when he finds a way to it.

And when God knew what He had deposited in His creation and what He had created in the heavy ones of need for what God had deposited in existing beings and in people for one another, He said, “So whoever hopes to meet his Lord, let him do righteous deeds, that is, let him not be tainted by corruption, and let him not associate anyone in the worship of his Lord, that is, let him not humiliate anyone except God.” To other than Him, and He commanded that we worship Him, being sincere to Him in religion, and He said, “Surely the pure religion belongs to Allah,” which is the religion extracted from the hands of the Lordship of the universes .

It is not valid for the existence of sincerity except from those who are sincere by opening the lam, for if God takes care of them, He extracts them from the lordship of the reasons we mentioned, so if He extracts them from them, they are sincere by breaking the lam. Rather, He added sincerity to them as a test to see whether gratitude would arise from them for the truth or not, and it was found in His saying, “They bestow blessings upon you.” If they submit to Islam, then if they do so they are rebuked and admonished by saying, “Rather, God has bestowed favor upon you by guiding you to faith, if you are truthful in your claim that you are believers,” then deprive them of this characteristic, that it may be their gain.

This is the lowest deception that knowledge gives, and the one who does it is called a knower.
