Allah the Mighty and Majestic said: {Like a mirage in a lowland which a thirsty one considers water until, when he comes to it, he finds it is nothing but finds Allah before Him, and He will pay him in full his due; and Allah is swift in account} 1 . This is a text from the word of Allah the Exalted regarding Himself, that He is an Existing Being who calls His servant to account and pays him his account in full. And His saying: {Ha, Meem, 'Ayn, Seen, Qaf} 2 ; which, if a wise philosopher ponders them, he would find them to be 'Amas Haqq.

And His saying in this Surah: {And it is not for any human being that Allah should speak to him except by revelation or from behind a veil or that He sends a messenger who reveals, by His permission, what He wills. Indeed, He is Most High and Wise} 3 . This is an articulation and clarification of the Name by which He named His Essence during His existence in this abode and His manifestation to the accordant and the discordant, teaching us and making known to us His justice and His kindness toward us, and that He is the one whom we call upon; that He who is God in the heaven is the Imam whom we see and witness with our eyes, manifest, existing, and observed.
