Question 1 was about the prophetic concept of thinking and thoughts and their relationship to Haqq and Batil.

Question 2, assumes 1, and asks: what are the proper thoughts for the Salik (Voyager towards Allah).

Shabistari replies: To think about Divine Gifts (Ala’) is correct for the path, to think about Dhat (Inmost Essence) of Allah is absolute sin!

This verse is based upon the Prophet’s saying:

You (all) think about the Ala’ (Gifts) of Allah yet do not think about the nature of Allah (what Allah is), said the Prophet.
