The Radiant Sparks

...Your heavens and Your earth, and the fullness of whatever You will thereafter. This is part of a well-known prophetic prayer of praise.
The Messenger of God—peace and blessings be upon him—asked, "Who is the speaker?" The Bedouin replied, "It was I, O Messenger of God." He said, "I saw seventy thousand angels racing to write it down."

If you—meaning this tradition—open for yourself a subtle example from the protection of what I have cast toward you, know that it is not possible to declare more than this. No one writes down this remembrance at this time and carries it with him except that good things hasten toward him from where he does not perceive. Nor does anyone in a state of ritual impurity original: "junub" read this supplication except that mercy reaches his heart and it flutters until the impurity leaves him. And one writes: "Ah, Ah, You, You" original: "Ah, Ah, Anta, Anta" and what we mentioned three times, and every letter of it will be explained once.

Do not think that this remembrance is merely something that runs upon the tongue or a formal drawing of knowledge. Rather, every letter of it, whose shape was composed and from which a word was organized, was formed by a marvelous arrangement of every revelation of sciences of great magnitude, the decoding of deep-reaching symbols, and manifestations of luminous union in understanding. It consists of the properties of connections in the paths of the Realm of Dominion and the Kingdom term: "al-mulk wa al-malakut" - the physical world and the spiritual/celestial realm. Within it are Quranic secrets through which one reaches the Divine Presence without the need for traversing a long spiritual path or tiring on the road. Know that and realize it; that is the favor of God.

He gives it to whom He wills. original: "yutihi" - completing the catchword from the previous page God, the Mighty and Sublime, casts the Spirit by His command upon whom He wills of His servants, and likewise, He sends down the secret of His decree upon whom He wills of His saints.

Providence granted us the tools of success, the time was right, and I snatched from the hours of my life pure moments in which I displayed the brides of my understanding to the beauties of your comprehension. So, give thanks for this meeting at the time of parting, when those who say "I have no close friend" feel regret. When time grew short and obstacles prevented further detail, I brought these to you white, pure, sanctified, and honored scrolls—virgins, devoted, and of equal age The author uses Quranic imagery of Paradise to describe the purity and originality of these spiritual insights—untouched by common thought, unblemished by vanity, and never felt by the illusions of a listener. So, treasure them and be grateful; "eat the vegetables and do not ask about the garden." A proverbial expression meaning to enjoy the benefits without questioning the source or over-analyzing the process. God speaks the truth, and He guides the way.

The beginning of the first third of Wednesday night

My God, by Your Hidden Name term: "al-ism al-maknun" - the primordial name of God kept secret from the general creation which You favored with the virtues of differentiation in existence, so that You detailed everything with distinctness. In its diversity, the wisdom of Justice appeared; thus languages differed, names appeared, actions became exalted, species diversified, genera were categorized, and the celestial spheres were arranged—"each swimming in an orbit" A reference to Quran 21:33 and by the subduing power of Your justice, they are balanced. Draw the shadow of my body toward You with a gentle drawing, and spread over me the light...
