Reading from the words of the poet: "And therefore, whoever knows the Book in truth... to the end of the chapter"
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: "And therefore, whoever knows the Book in truth *** knows all of existence through its explanation
And likewise, he knows the summary of the Shari'ah which *** man needs in every time
Knowledge in detail and knowledge in summary *** its detail is also by a second revelation
And both are revelations that have guaranteed for us *** the highest of sciences with the utmost clarity
And therefore, he knows of the attributes of Allah and the *** actions and names of the One of Grace
What is not known from any other book *** ever, nor what the two earths have said
And likewise, he knows of the attributes of the Resurrection in the *** detail and summary in the Qur'an
What makes or what is made today".
The Shaykh : Indeed, a term was decreed from the first.
The reader: Okay, what contradicts this? Is it "what makes today" or "what is made"?
The Shaykh : "What makes today," "what makes today."
The reader: "And therefore, whoever knows the Book in truth *** knows all of existence through its explanation
And likewise, he knows the summary of the Shari'ah which *** man needs in every time
Knowledge in detail and knowledge in summary *** its detail is also by a second revelation
And both are revelations that have guaranteed for us *** the highest of sciences with the utmost clarity
And therefore, it is known"
The Shaykh : And likewise, and likewise.
The reader: "He knows" or "it is known"?
The Shaykh : "He knows," all of it, "he knows."
The reader: "And likewise, he knows of the attributes of Allah and the *** actions and names of the One of Grace
What is not known from any other book *** ever, nor what the two earths have said
And likewise, he knows of the attributes of the Resurrection in the *** detail and summary in the Qur'an
What makes the great day witnessed *** by the heart like that which is seen with the eye
And likewise" "he knows" or "it is known"?
The Shaykh : "He knows," all of it, "he knows."
The reader: "And likewise, he knows of the reality of his self *** and its attributes through the reality of gnosis
He knows its necessities and he knows *** that it is created and a creature through explanation
And likewise, he knows what is in it of *** needs, non-existence, and deficiency
And likewise, he knows his Lord and His attributes *** also without likeness or deficiency
And here are three aspects, so be attentive to them *** if you are one of knowledge and gnosis
By the opposite, by the first, and likewise by impossibility *** for our knowledge of the self and of the Most Merciful
So the opposite is knowing the Divine by the opposite of what *** is in the self of defect and deficiency
And the reality of the first is the establishment of His perfection *** if He is the Giver of Grace".
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
The author (may Allah have mercy on him) said, when he mentioned the texts, the texts of the two revelations, the Book and the Sunnah, that in them is sufficiency and in them is richness over what is other than them, he said (may Allah have mercy on him):
"And therefore, whoever knows the Book in truth *** knows all of existence through its explanation"
Whoever knows the Qur'an with a true knowledge that corresponds to what Allah intended by it, he knows the reality of existence, and why it was created? And what is its goal? And what is its end? And what is the fruit of life? Because the speech of Allah has explained this, either in summary or in detail.
"And likewise, he knows the summary of the Shari'ah which *** man needs in every time"
If he knows the Qur'an in truth, he knows everything that man needs from the Shari'ah of Allah, because Allah said, and He is the truest of speakers:[An-Nahl 16:89] What? [An-Nahl 16:89] [An-Nahl 16:89] Yes, "tabyan" (explanation) means that which explains everything, but the shortcoming is from us, either a shortcoming or a negligence. Yes, four verses, from where?

The Shaykh : I do not know, by Allah. Okay, we did not explain it, so we return. He said:
"But here are two matters, if they were combined, if they were combined *** we would not need it, so how good are the two matters
Gathering the texts and understanding their intended meaning *** by their wording, and understanding is two levels"
We spoke about this, O brothers, and we said that some people, when they take a text, leave the other texts, is that not so? Okay. He says: "And understanding is two levels".
And likewise, he knows the summary of the Shari'ah which *** man needs in every time
Knowledge in detail and knowledge in summary *** its detail is also by a second revelation
