Among this is the saying of al-Sayyid Abu al-Ghusn Juha (his name is Thabit ibn al-Dukayn), who is one of the Five Orphans (al-Aytam al-Khamsa) in the manifestation of our Lord Ali ibn Musa al-Rida—Glorified be His Might—as narrated by Sheikh Abu al-Husayn Muhammad ibn Ali al-Jali:"
The ultimate goal of the seeker and the sought
Is the love of Ali ibn Abi Talib
Whoever desires his Creator, let him approach
The Gate of Ali, the Seeker, the Victorious
So that when he beholds Him, let him speak
A word of truth, not as a liar
Glory be to Him who manifested His humanity
And veiled for us His piercing Divinity
And who appeared openly within His creation
In the form of one who eats and drinks
Until His creation witnessed Him clearly
Within the lines of the brow and the eyebrows
