notifications_active Weekly Meshkat-e Noor Session: Thursdays at 20:30 at Haj Reza Mosque
Peace be upon you. Could you please explain what is meant by “rizq” in the statement that, when it is removed, knowledge and wisdom will become boundless (from the speech marking the passing of Lady Zaynab al-Kubra)?
َّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحيمِ
It seems that “rizq” in the speech marking the passing of Lady Zaynab al-Kubra (SA) means “day,” rather than provision or sustenance. God’s infinite artistry will be revealed on the tablet of womanhood, and the pure woman is like a vessel into which the wine of beauty and boundless delights is poured—and in which it will endure.
I think that, in the discussion above, the word “yowm” means not provision but simply “a day”—one day among many …
**Boundless Art**
In the verse about the Tablet of Woman, the Creator of existence is only at the beginning of unveiling His artistry; one day, the boundless art of the Best of Creators will be displayed within it.
Who could attain such worthiness and become the Tablet of the All-Wise, the Pure?
**Woman: A Great Tablet**
Woman is a great mystery, a magnificent tablet. A pure woman is like a pure vessel, filled with the greatest of mysteries and with a wine of beauty and pure, infinite delights—within which they are poured and will endure.
