Abstract:
The presence of many different types of interpretations and references to Malakūt (Unseen world) in the Holy Qurʾan shows the importance of people paying attention to these worlds and their characteristics. Also, referring to the Oneness of Allah the Almighty, the Throne and Kursī, the Umm al-Kitāb and Kitāb Mubīn, Khazāyīn (the treasures) and the Preserved Tablet, Fading and Stabilization, Destiny, Predestination and Certainty, etc., by mentioning different attributes, shows their difference and their functions. In this article, an attempt has been made to discover the relationships between them based on the interpretation of the verses related to these cases and based on the Tafsir al-Mīzān, after summarizing and analyzing each of the interpretations used about the divine malakūt. The results obtained from these analyzes show that the universe of the divine malakūt starts from the essence of infinity and descends to the rank of unity, and then divine knowledge manifests, then divine providence appears, then divine command, then destiny and finally divine decree. Likewise, the divine decree first creates the treasures, then it descends to the Umm al-Kitāb and Kitābul Maknūn, then to the Preserved Tablet, then the Kitāb Mubīn, then the Imām Mubīn, then the Mafātiḥ al-Ghayb, then the Throne, and finally it reaches the Kursī and from there it flows into the world of mankind. The analysis of these levels can be used in various sciences of humanities to obtain the fundamental infrastructures of thinking, feeling and behavior of the individual and society and how they relate to each other.
