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

Secrets of the Sacred Sanctuary:

  1. Blessed mouth (dahan-i mubarak);
  2. God's face (wajhu'llah);
  3. Divine vision (didar-i rabbani, 75:22-23), Image of the Compassionate (surat-i Rahman);
  4. [Divine] Speech (kalam, 42:51).

Divine Speech: It is wahy, i.e., an allusion, or a speech from behind the veil. All allusions are from the confluence of the Pearl of Intellect and the Hidden Book. Both of them are light and the movement of light is called a tajalli (theophany) and its plural is tajalliyyat. If you have prepared yourselves, we will tell you the magnificent secrets of the Sacred Sanctuary [such that] nothing is without a reference from the Qur'an and spirituality. Today's article may be difficult for some students so it is very briefly written.

This is an extremely pure explanation thus I have written after giryah-u zari. May the true Lord by virtue of His infinite mercy help all of us, Amin!

Today I did giryah-u zari using these verses: 75:22-23 and 89:22.
