@aoun50The path to truth lies with the Greatest and Seal of Prophets Muhammad, his twelve successors and Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus along with the righteous saints.
When you come to know what you are, you will see that you are what you know. In the unity of knowing and being, without “you” (the ego), the gap dissolves, and the secret resolves itself.
Knowledge is a light that God places in the heart of whom He wills. - Ali ibn Abi Talib (Peace be upon them). This reflects the idea that knowledge and being are not derived externally but arise from within, through divine illumination.
O people, humanity is divided into three types: the ascetic, the desirous, and the patient. As for the ascetic, he neither rejoices over anything from this world that comes to him nor grieves over anything from it that he misses. As for the patient, he desires worldly things in…
*Mystical Treasures* In the vast journey of Tawheed (توحيد – Divine Unity), we often encounter the intricate layers of understanding that transcend the outward and penetrate the inner essence of existence. The sages of old have spoken of two profound dimensions of Tawheed: -…
Plotinus describes The One as the absolute source—a reality so perfect that it contains nothing yet gives rise to everything. It is beyond form, beyond being, a unity so boundless that it neither needs nor possesses. The One simply is, and from it, all existence flows like waves…
Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (peace be upon them), in this eloquent sermon from Nahj al-Balagha, provides a remarkable discourse on the nature of knowing and affirming God. He begins by stating: أول الدين معرفته، وكمال معرفته التصديق به، وكمال التصديق به توحيده The foundation of…
In the journey of knowing oneself, we turn to the timeless wisdom passed down through the ages, encapsulated in the saying: “He who knows himself, knows his Lord” من عرف نفسه فقد عرف ربه This profound insight is further illuminated by the wisdom of Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib…
In Ibn Arabi’s cosmology, the realms of existence are arranged from the most manifest to the most transcendent. Starting from the lowest to the highest, these realms depict the journey of the soul from the material world to the highest form of Divine Unity. 1. ‘Alam al-Mulk (The…
The universe, in its grand order, exists not for itself, but as a training ground for the soul to journey through a process of detachment and purification. It is designed as a place where the soul engages with the physical, temporal world, allowing it to experience and transcend…
لَئِن كانَتِ الدُنيا تُعَدُّ نَفيسَةً فَدارُ ثَوابِ اللَهِ أَعلى وَأَنبَلُ وَإِن كانَتِ الأَبدانُ لِلمَوتِ أُنشِئَت فَقَتلُ اِمرِئٍ بِالسَيفِ في اللَهِ أَفضَلُ وَإِن كانَتِ الأَرزاقُ شَيئاً مُقَدَّراً فَقِلَّةُ سَعي المَرءِ في الرِزقِ أَجمَلُ وَإِن كانَتِ الأَموالُ لِلتَركِ…
If this world is prized as a treasure to claim, God’s reward is far greater, a higher name. If these bodies were built for death’s grim blow, Then falling by the sword for God is the way to go. If fate has already measured our share, Why toil for wealth with needless care? If…
Time, history, and experience have shown us that humanity doesn’t require more knowledge in the conventional sense. Some form of spirituality, some connection to higher power, has always existed—yet the focus of human attention has remained firmly fixed on the physical realm.…
This reflection raises essential questions that go beyond intellectual knowledge. It’s easy to acquire information and speak about God, religion, or philosophy, but true understanding comes from a deeper place of lived experience and transformation. The real question is: Has all…
Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq (peace be upon him) said: The Arif (the true knower of God) is one whose body is with the people, but whose heart is with Allah, the Exalted. And if their heart were to be distracted from Allah for even the blink of an eye, they would die from the longing…
جوهر السلوك وغايته في سياق العرفان الإسلامي، هو إزالة الحجب عن الجهل الذي يمنع الروح من مشاهدة ومعاينة الحقائق الإلهية. السلوك ليس عملية إضافة شيء جديد إلى الروح أو تطهيرها من الأدران الخارجية، بل هو عملية كشف لما هو موجود بالفعل لكنه محجوب عن النظر — مثل أشعة الشمس المضيئة لكن…
