Forty Keys of Luminous Ta'wil - Part 8

Part 8

By the Name of Allah, the most Compassionate, the most Merciful.

There are many wisdom-filled guidances in the blessed verse (66:8), among which is the sincere repentance (tawbah-yi nasuh), by which is meant intense giryah-u zari. Giryah-u zari is the `ibadat of Prophets, also of `arifs and of lovers too. It is the fear of God, it is piety (taqwa), it is the supplication in the court of God, Purveyor of all needs.

As yet I have numerous shortcomings. If I attribute Mawla (a.s.)'s knowledge to myself, it would be a grave mistake. If I have hurt the heart of anyone, I must repent. The true master of the knowledge is Mawla (a.s.), therefore it is an error to claim knowledge. Read carefully also Chapter 16 of Wajh-i Din.
