"A chapter on the second type of the types of tawhid (the oneness of Allah) for the people of al-Ilhad (deviation)"
"This is the second, and the tawhid of Ibn Saba' *** and his followers is the most baseless lie
Every one who claims unity is vile in their view *** Their worshipped one is the one who is prostrated to, the Truth
Their tawhid is that the deity is the absolute *** Existence, diffused in the entities
It is their very essence, not other than it; here *** There is no Lord and no servant, how can they be separated?
But the delusion of the servant, then his imagination *** Always enter into the One with manifestations
Therefore, their judgment over Him is valid *** So the son of nature is manifestly deficient
When his knowledge is stripped of his sense *** and his imagination, indeed, then two strippings
Stripping it of his intellect as well, for *** The intellect does not bring him near to this matter"
The Shaykh : No, no, no ... it does not bring him near to this matter
The reader: "Stripping it of his intellect as well, for *** The intellect does not bring him near to this matter
Rather, it tears through all the thick veils *** Delusion and sense, then intellect and imagination
So delusion is from it, and his sense and his imagination *** And knowledge and the intelligible in the minds
Are veils over this matter; tear through them, otherwise *** You will be veiled from gnosis
This, and the thickest of them is the veil of sense, and the *** Intelligible; you are the one who possesses the Criterion
There you become a true monotheist, seeing *** This existence as the reality of the Divine
And shirk (associating partners with Allah) with them is diversifying the *** Existence, and our saying that existence is two
And one day a person argued with them using the Book *** And they said, shirk is in the Qur'an
But tawhid, according to those who claim *** Unity, is that they are the people of gnosis
A Lord and a servant, how is that? And only the *** Existing One is singular, having no second"
