Forty Keys of Luminous Ta'wil - Part 34
Part 34
Tags: Be, Al-Hayyu'l-Qayyum
By the Name of Allah, the most Compassionate, the most Merciful.
Verses (6:73-74) state: "He it is who created the heavens and the earth with truth. And the day (when) He says 'Be!' It is."
His word is the truth. His is the kingdom on the day when the dead will be breathed into (i.e., the trumpet will be blown). Knower of the unseen and the seen, and He is the all-wise, the all-aware."
Luminous ta'wil: Al-Hayyu'l-Qayyum is He Who created the heavens and the earth forever and the day He will say to it "Be!" it will indeed be transformed [from the physical world into the world of command]. His word (i.e., the word Be!) is the truth and the kingdom will belong to Him the day the sur will be blown. He is the Knower of the unseen and the seen, and He is wise and aware.
Praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of the personal worlds! The same luminous ta'wil is in verse (14:48).
