Rather, He is the Permanently Manifest and Witnessed, the Sheathed Inward (al-Batin al-Maghmud) whom no one can see or witness except through the qualities, nor speak of except through descriptions, just as no one can call upon Him except through names.

What they see of the Manifestation (Zuhur) is not different from what they do not see of the Inwardness (Butun); rather, it is He, in reality and substance (Jawhar). Yet, He is not He as they see in form (Hay'a) and appearance (Manzar). Glory be to Him who inspired the intellects to know Him without perception and showed the eyes His existence without encompassing Him—and He is capable of all things.

The People of Monotheism also established that Sunday (Al-Ahad) is the Prince of Bees (Amir al-Nahl). This is so we may use this personification to know the Ancient Worshiped Meaning and His radiant existence toward His Great Name, from the aspect of His originated [presence] from the Essence, which is the Witnessed Unseen. We see Him according to our capacity, for the Day and its personification are a parable indicating Him—the Exalted—while He transcends all parables. Rather, that to bring understanding closer [to the mind]. It also indicates the nature of the Greatest Name and the manner in which his Master brought him into existence.
