He is Allah , other than whom there is no deity, the Sovereign, the Pure, the Perfection, the Bestower of Faith, the Overseer, the Exalted in Might, the Compeller, the Superior. Exalted is Allah above whatever they associate with Him. -surah 59:23 the exile.
the definition of Al Malik - the King of Kings - requires us to reexamine the word for God that surrenderers use - ALLAH.
ALLAH, although used synonymously with the term God - used in western thought on religion - is a distinct term, and a bit more precise for the purposes of the path of Surrender.
ALLAH translates to the One. ALLAH is an odd number that is indivisible. the name ALLAH, refers to the One-ness, and Al-Malik requires us to understand this in placing ALLAH as above any king, whom man may recognize in material form.
understanding Al-Malik is understanding that ALLAH is the Sum total, the Source of All, Divine/Ancient Mathematic, older than Time.
Al-Malik bends material linearisms on time and space, by leaving every meditation of prophets, of astral-achieving yogis, and scientists deep in worship of elements and equations, to deduce Oneness.
ALLAH equals the number One.
i was stirred by this most recent contemplation, in sitting with Al-Malik.
the very name i referred to in prayer was/is a numeral, a number, a mathematic...scientifically proven by the implausibility of laboratorial science to reconstruct sun moon planets...proven by the passing of jesus and mohammed, shakespeare and robin williams, gandhi and king, my great-grandfather's india and native america, by friends i no longer know and pictures of me i barely recognize.
through it all, the bowing down at dawn and dusk remain constant. Al Malik remains constant.
