From Listening to Ecstasy مقاله

خلاصه ماشینی:

Conclusion Not everyone can master Sama' Nor is fig the taste for every bird (Molavi 1368 : 7) It must be said that true Sama' means hearing everything exactly as it is in its attributes and status (Mousavi Sirjani 1381 : 172), and the people of Sama', considering the meaning of Wajd according to this group—which is "the establishment of a state that appears to them during Sama', accompanied by sorrow" (Hujwiri 1373 : 538)—fall into three groups: 1- The infatuated possessors 2- The defeated possessors 3- The possessors of the Intended. Alongside these truths, we also addressed the mention of the cloak, the auditory cloak, and the tearing of garments because there was no other way; for we had the infatuated and defeated possessors who themselves created these discussions in Sama' and caused uproar in this regard, to the point where the discussion of dancing and singing also entered the field in Sama', even though in Sharia and Tariqa there is no primary place for dancing; however, this does not mean that the anxiety resulting from the Sama' of beginners and intermediates can be concealed, and perhaps this anxiety and movement is what has been interpreted as dancing. Now, considering the meaning of wajd (ecstasy) from the perspective of Hujwiri in the book Kashf al-Mahjub, it seems that the one who has attained the purpose, as mentioned by Khwaja Abdullah, is the same as the perfect one in Sama from Hujwiri's viewpoint; and the captivated (maftun) and overcome (maghlub) ones are indeed the beginner and intermediate listeners of Sama, through whom anxiety has entered, revealing the inner reality of their affairs, causing them to tear their clothes and raise their voices loudly.
