DescriptionThese pages center on the author’s earlier work, al-Tuḥfat al-mursala ilā al-Nabī ṣallá Allāh ʿalayhi wa-sallam fī ʿilm al-ḥaqāʾiq. Rather than reproducing that work in full, the text engages with its themes in a more general way. The author then appends a conclusion (khātimah) to bring the discussion to a close. Following this, several poetic verses are added on two central theological and metaphysical concepts: al-Dhāt (the divine essence) and Marātib al-Wujūd (levels of existence). For scholars, this structure—a discussion of an earlier work followed by a concluding section and poetry on ontology—offers insight into how authors in the Sufi tradition revisited, summarized, and poetically elaborated on their own writings.
