is praised, and among them are blamed examples and the intended by them is blamed, and among them are praised examples and the intended by them is praised, as will come in its place, if God Almighty wills.

As for the fasting from eating meat, milk, and every possessor of a soul and what comes out of a soul that is coupled with praise, it is abstaining from manifesting the belief in the sanctification of the worlds of light, and not manifesting the belief in the allegiance (Muwalat) to the believers and the esoteric, religious, divine secrets they possess, openly among the adversaries. Because if the companion of the name is praised, then His Almighty's intent by that name is a praised person, even if it were among the names that are blameworthy to the people of the exoteric—such as the Cow of the Children of Israel, the Dog of the People of the Cave, and other animals, inanimate objects, plants, and cosmic or temporal things. And if the companion of the name is blameworthy, then His Almighty's intent by that name is a blameworthy person, even if its exoteric form is from the names of celestial lights like the sun, the moon, the stars, and what is similar to that of the names of things that are esoterically praised. And if it is neglected (Muhmal), then it bears neither praise nor blame.

And the people of the exoteric also believe that the name "month" (Shahr) may be applied to the moon and the crescent, and this name is also applied to it when it nears completion.
