Q442 What is the ta’wili wisdom in verse (19:12): “O John! Hold fast the book.”

A442

  • It is a very great ingratitude to do cibadat half-heartedly. Therefore, remember the supreme Name (ism-i aczam) with full strength.
  • The heavenly book is both in a physical as well as a spiritual form, therefore strive strenuously [to understand them].
  • Continue to struggle hard for the sake of knowledge and wisdom.
  • According to the wider meaning of the book, it can also be said [that it means to] reflect on the silent book, the speaking book, the book of the soul and the book of the universe attentively.
