15:47
Symbolic Language I said : He said
I said: The word surur (plural of sarir, throne) has been mentioned four times in the Glorious Qur’an and one verse in which it is mentioned is: "And We shall remove whatever rancour there may be in their hearts; as brothers they will sit, face to face, on thrones" (15:47).
He said: It is true that although in the beginning there is friendship and enmity for the sake of God, but after one reaches the highest degree of faith, it becomes evident that such enmity is only a temporary thing. God, the Holy, purifies the hearts of the Perfect Men in this very world from every kind of impurity. Thus, this is a description of people as a whole. Or, we should say that to say God removes rancour from the hearts of the people of Paradise is a description related to ordinary people. In any case, when there is no enmity in Paradise, there can only be friendship and love and when this love is earnest and ardent, then there is oneness only. Thus this Divine teaching indicates that in azal (pre-eternity) and abad (post-eternity) all people of Paradise should be considered on the thrones
of equality and equity, i.e. on the throne of uniformity (yakrangi) of Paradise in the same place and that all people should be brothers one to another. For in Paradise, all of them are the children of the spiritual Adam and Eve, namely the Universal Intellect and the Universal Soul.
