So we shared in the obligation *** and we separated. In the restrictions

Then we were saddened by existence *** We have no limits

So we shared in the obligation *** and we separated. In the restrictions

Then we were saddened by existence *** We have no limits

[ The darkness of possibility is the same as pure ignorance ]

Know, O my guardian, that the darkness of possibility is the worst of darkness, for it is the essence of pure ignorance. So, if God takes charge of His servant, He brings him out of the darkness of this ignorance, which is possibility. There is nothing but his looking at himself that is devoid of his looking at the One who took him over. Thus, this taking over takes him out of the darkness of his possibility into the light of the necessity of his existence, which is what is described as necessary. So he took it out of it for Himself and differentiated between the obligation that He decreed for God and the ruling of obligation that we have by adhering to it, so God Almighty made it obligatory for Himself and our obligation by Him .

So we shared in the obligation *** and we separated. In the restrictions

Then we were saddened by existence *** We have no limits
