A seeker, who is at the beginning of the Allah’s pilgrimage, can pass this difficult path only through recapturing and insinuating himself through the light of reminding God. Even an ultimate seeker, without mentioning Allah, will never be able to reach the highest mystical levels. Allameh Tabatabai’s thinking is in the harmony with Quran, mysticism and wisdom.
