And if Existence is stripped [of physical constraints], it becomes a Single Intelligible1. And the Rank of the Gate realizes that it is connected to the Supreme Veil, which is the Veil of Allah in Reality, not in Metaphor.
And if you say: "O Eternal, You cease not (Ya Azali Lam Tazal)2, the indication only falls upon the outward of the "Meem" towards Him is the Submission. And the Outward of the "Meem" is the Gate (Al-Bab), because the Abstracts (Mujarradat), the Intelligibles (Ma'qulat), and the Souls are Eternalities (Azaliyyat) and Permanent things; change, corruption, and decay do not overtake them.
At that point, the Form cannot be indicated except by the Abstract Intelligible, which cannot perish. The Single Form, which Perfection necessarily accompanies, is the Permanent, Fixed, and Eternal one.
