​Allah the Glorious and Majestic inquires of his intimate friend the noble Prophet Abraham, upon him be peace: Why such apprehension? Abraham replies:
O Lord, why should I not experience profound apprehension? My spiritual father Adam was in the station of nearness to you. You created him with Your Own Hand and breathed into him Your Own Spirit. You commanded the angels to bow down before him. Yet
 for a single act of forgetfulness, You exiled him from Your Direct Presence.
Allah Most High then speaks into the secret heart of His friend: O Abraham, do you not know that even a single moment of forgetfulness of the lover for the Beloved is terrible?
(This khabar was transmitted through the sage Ibrahim ibn 'Abd-Allah and recorded in Ibn Arabi's Mishkat al-Anwar)

'Universal Dimensions Of Islam: Studies in Comparative Religion'
By Patrick Laude (Author)

Description:

Islam's acceptance of other religions remains an enigma for many Westerners. Yet it is Islam's doctrine of Unity, which affirms one supreme God, as well as its acceptance of multiple prophets, which explains its acceptance of other faiths. The sixteen articles in this volume discuss the fundamental universality of Islam and make the case for it as a religion and civilisation intrinsically equipped to address all aspects of the human experience, including the priority of Divine Mercy over Justice, the inclusive nature of prophecy, the emphasis on virtue and beauty, the Islamic ability to assimilate various cultural and ethnic languages and the capacity of Islamic mysticism or Sufism to serve as a spiritual bridge for interfaith dialogue between diverse religions. Contributors include René Guénon, Titus Burckhardt and Seyyed Hossein Nasr and other experts in Islam and Sufism. This is another book in World Wisdom's series of Studies in Comparative Religion.
