THE ATLAS OF THE POLISHED MIRROR

Al-Futūḥāt al-Makkiyya · The Meccan Revelations

the Futūḥāt
nature
Five hundred and sixty chapters, begun after a vision during circumambulation at the Kaaba: cosmology, letters, Names, the stations of the path, and the imaginal world in which visions are neither merely subjective nor simply physical.

The largest single body of speculative mysticism produced in Islam, and the closest thing on this bench to the Zohar in ambition, in bulk, and in the way later readers mine it for systems it never quite states.
rhymes with
sephirahbinah
whyA structure vast enough to be a world of its own.

Tehiru is a walk-in model of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life and its kindred ways — built to be explored, not read. This page is a still frame of one node; the app is where it moves.
