"Indeed, you are to die, and indeed, they are to die. Then indeed, on the Day of Resurrection, before your Lord, you will dispute" 1 . It is also applied to the Accursed Opposite, whom the Name—may his glory be exalted—informed of his slaughter between Paradise and Hell.

Furthermore, it is applied to the soul of the Veiled Believer; toward this, the indication occurred in the Almighty’s saying: "And whoever saves one [soul]—it is as if he had saved mankind entirely" 2 . Its "saving" (revival) is the imparting of the knowledge of Monotheism to it, through which is the life of every thing. Toward this, the indication occurred in the Almighty’s saying: "And We made from water every living thing" 3 . For "thing" is more general than what is revived by natural water in the outward sense; thus, it may be applied to the True Gate.
