Shaykh Ahmad al-Faruqi as-Sirhindi
May Allah Sanctify His Soul

"If God causes one to approach Him,
He reveals Himself to him as the object of his desire, without his knowing,
As the fire of Moses, which he saw through the eye of his need,
And who is the Divinity which he did not recognize.
If thou understandeth my words
thou knowest that thou hast need of the apparent form:
If Moses had searched for something other than the fire
He would have seen Him in that, and not inversely."

Ibn ^cArabi, Fusus al-Hikam
