خلاصة:
Insight, besides being one of the controversial issues in Mysticism, is seriously facing differences and contradictions in mystics' works. These differences are basically formed under the influence of differing views in Sufi sects. One type of insight is “seeing colored lights” which seem to be presented for the first time by the followers of Kubrawiyyah School in Islamic Mysticism. Though there is a long background behind using the symbolism of Light and Color in Islamic Mysticism, the integration of these two issues is a process which exclusively seems to belong to Kubrawiyyah school. Based on the ideology of this School, the disciple in any stage of her/his treading path sees a Colored Light which is indeed an indicative of her/his soul Transcendence. Moreover, in every stage, the disciple passes one of the stages of her/his existence. Each stage is a sign of a dark obstacle. Since the aim of Mysticism is polishing the disciple's soul and removing the barriers from her/his way, that simultaneously happen while seeing Lights, it would be necessary to study the basic thoughts of the followers of Kubrawiyyah school for its emphasizing both seeing Lights, passing the stage of Heart (Ghalb), or removing the dark obstacles
ملخص الجهاز:
Since the goal of pure mysticism is to refine the seeker's soul and remove the veils, which is achieved simultaneously with the vision of lights, this article studies the foundations of the thought of the followers of the Kubrawiya school, who specifically emphasize the connection between these two categories, namely the vision of lights and passing through existential stages or the removal of dark veils.
This creative method in Islamic mysticism, presented by Najm al-Din Kubra, is intentionally distinct from the methods presented to describe vision and its stages in other mystical schools, because in the works of the followers of other sects, attention has not been paid to the seven stages of light, which is a manifestation of the stages of vision: "Although both color and light are included in the Holy Quran and several verses guide us to its reality in this regard; however, the Perfect Sheikh, Najm al-Din Kubra, for the first time, has designed and expressed it from the perspective of Sufi application and practical suluk, in such a way that he can be considered the founder of the theory of color and light in mysticism and Sufism.
