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


With it, it is said: This is a throne, and this is an intellect, and this is a pen, and a board, and a chair, and an ark, and a king, and fire, and passion, and water, and earth, and metal, and a plant, and an animal, and a human being, between races and species. Then this truth spread to individuals, so it is said: Zaid and Amr, and this horse, and this stone, and this tree. All of this gave him the readiness of the most notable possible things, so I inferred their effects. In existence as it is from the facts in themselves, as evidenced by the effects of the names in existence on the divine names, and the named does not have an eye upon which perception occurs. If the possible stands with its eye, it is free and has no slavery in it, and if it stands with its preparations, it is a poor slave.

We have no place in absolute freedom unless our scene is what we mentioned, so do not talk to yourself about anything other than this. And whoever does not witness this situation will never know the meaning of his saying, for God is independent of the worlds, that is, He is independent of any evidence for it, since if He had created the world to guide it, it would not be true. It is indispensable to Him, so I know the knowledge of the one who appoints the world as a guide and to whom he guides, and it is clearer and more prominent than being proven by something else or the Almighty being guided by anything else. If that were the case, the evidence would have some authority and pride over the signified, and if the signified appoints him as a guide, this evidence would not be removed from the level of arrogance in that it is the benefit of the signifier.

As for the general language, freedom according to the people is whoever is not enslaved by the existence of anyone other than God. He is free from anything other than God. Freedom is a confirmed bondage to God, so he is not a servant of anyone other than God. He created him to worship him, so he fulfilled what he created for him. It was said about him what a wonderful servant he is, that he is a returner, meaning a return to the servitude for which he was created.

He who is never free from his needs *** How can liberation be achieved when needs demand it ?

There is no freedom in the universe where He seeks us from every angle, and from Him we seek Him .

Know, may God grant you success, that abandoning freedom is pure and pure slavery that enslaves its possessor of reasons to achieve it with the knowledge of wisdom in its situation. He is subject to its authority, so its possessor is like the earth, it is trampled by the righteous and the immoral. It gives its benefit to the believer and the unbeliever, affecting him by the effect of supplication from the universe for the truth, the answer to his supplication, fulfilled by his Lord when he saw this position accompanying him. With the rich person attributed to him, what is the condition of one whose boat goes hungry, becomes naked, becomes thirsty, and sacrifices while he is commanded to preserve it and look into its affairs and what is right for it? God has appointed him as a successor in Him, and it is not in his power to fulfill his rights unless the reasons themselves enable him, so by necessity he submits in attaining them to fulfilling God’s rights in which he is directed.
