Raf-i Tur (Raising of the Mount): it is mentioned three times in the Wise Qur”an that the mount was shown to the children of Israel towering above them, so that they should be afraid and act upon the commandments of the Torah (2:63). The tawili wisdom of this in the personal world is that the spiritually advanced people from the children of Israel used to observe the mount of Intellect revolving above them.

Q405 According to verses (2:63, 93; 4:154; 7:171) God has made the mountain hang above the children of Israel. Please tell us its esoteric wisdom.

A405

  • By the infinite providence of Almighty God, all living miracles of the magnificent Qur’an are gathered in the personal world for the sake of ta’wil and recognition, and then they are centred in the sacred Sanctuary.
  • Thus, all those examples and descriptions that carry the title of mountain (tur = jabal) are related to the mountain of soul and that of the intellect.
  • Those who are aware of the secrets of the personal world can certainly tell you what the demonstrations of the mountain of soul and that of the intellect are and how they hang over the heads. Study the verses of mountains.
