59:24
Sawwarnakum (We made your form)
In the external world minerals are in the lowest level, vegetatives are in the second level, animals are in the third level and human beings are in the fourth. It is clear that under each of these levels, there are innumerable kinds of creatures. Thus, among the countless strata of the world of humanity, the most elevated and exalted stratum is that of the Prophets and the awliya', in whose personal world there is the recognition of the beautiful names of God. Thus, in verse (59:24) first of all is the name "Allah", then "khaliq", then "bari’" and finally "musawwir", the ta'wil of which is that Allah creates the Prophets and awliya' first physically, then spiritually and finally He creates them intellectually and grants them His surat-i Rahman.
