Tags: Sadiqin, Imam, Pearl of Intellect
By the Name of Allah, the most Compassionate, the most Merciful.
Surah-yi Tawbah says: "O believers! Fear God, and be with the truthful ones." (9:119)
Ta'wil: The true Imams are the truthful ones (sadiqin) in the real sense and to be with the truthful ones is indeed the merging of every believing man and woman in the Imam. If any follower is blessed with the bliss of merging in the Imam, they will attain the paradise of the Sacred Sanctuary in this very life (47:6) which is full of the fruits of knowledge and wisdom.
All the miracles of the prophets of Qur'an are encompassed in the stages of the spiritual resurrection. When the Lord of resurrection performed the astonishing miracle of the Pearl of Intellect for Hazrat Musa (a.s) it amazed him. This is the ta'wil of his falling down unconscious, as previously he was unaware of the theophanies of the Pearl of Intellect.
