The great mountain, this is from the door of jealousy, and the first is from the door of perfection and what is necessary.

If there was no deficiency in existence, he would have fallen short of the rank of perfection

But he is imperfect, so he showed his perfection in him, Dhul-Jalal

Every creation of every creation *** God did not devoid of beauty

Because it is referred to *** in every contract in any case

There is no perfection or beauty *** except to God the Dependent

From every person in every aspect *** in deed, situation and article

O He who sees me with a true eye *** Do not make judgment for imagination

Because he held every guide *** rather he is guided, not from misguidance

And if that is the case, then strive not to emit from you an image except that it is created in the utmost perfection in word and deed. The truth is when he says it and his acceptance of it, and whoever witnessed the memorizers, from this place he witnessed them, and when the truth Almighty made me witness His Lord, the Most High, is witnessed by a witness or witness or his witnesses the king is not like that, for he is witnessed by a stranger to him, even if the truth is his sight, then it is greater in foreignness and more anxious for the owner of this attribute because the king should not be a watcher over God and he is a watcher, so the king in this case must be veiled On the authority of God Almighty, he is not witnessed by the attribute of his servant, for if he witnessed it, he would not be able to be a watcher over him, so this servant must be anxious about witnessing the king.

He acted, so he is absolute in his will, and if some of the behavior is imposed on him, then he is acting in what he is forbidden to do, and the king cannot prevent him from that for two things, one because the truth has gone God by hearing this servant about his saying and seeing him from his witnesses and the other matter because the king is the guardian entrusted with him does not prevent him for his witnesses the right with him in His behavior that he commanded to preserve, therefore the king does not forbid him to act and to delegate the created being is not like that, for the ruler whom he entrusted the agents with is not with the one who is entrusted with him. It suffices, and God speaks the truth and He guides the way.

Do not obey the soul that is interested in you *** Close the veil on you and prostrate and draw near

Do not covet it, for I am not among its people *** and incline to the dominant light and become alienated

He is the one who gave existence with its quality *** So do what gives your existence you get closer

[ The servant, if he stands on his truth, knows himself, and if he knows himself, he knows his Lord .]

Know that God supported us and you with a spirit from Him, that this remembrance stops the servant from his reality, and if he stands on his truth, then he knows himself, and if he knows himself, he knows his Lord.
