Veil of Light

Bu makale Nur ve ışık, Nur ve güneş, Gerçeklik ve olguları bazı Kuran referanslarına ve metafizikçalışmaları inceleyerek güneşin yıldızlar ve shabaka geometrik desenleri içindeki şems gibi çeşitlidurumlarına açıklama getirmeye çalışır. Bu desenler XI. Yüzyıldan itibaren medya ve yüzeylerde genişbir yelpazede giderek kullanılır hale geldi ve Güneşin Peçesinin Nur-Güneşinin Allahın Yüzünübütün başka şeylerden ayırdığı düşünülür. İslamın içinde köklü olan bu güneş- şems merkezli, Kelime veNur kombinasyonu, ayetle birlikte Mushafta açığa çıkan kelime eş-şemse, küçük güneş, tasviri tarafındanİlahi Nurun Gerçek Güneşiyle birlikte ayrılır.

Işığın Örtüsü

This article attempts to provide some explanation for the variety of sun - stars , shamsa inshabaka geometric designs by looking at some of the Koranic references and metaphysical worksconcerning Light and light, Sun and sun, Reality and phenomena. These designs became increasinglyemployed from the XIthc. onwards over a wide variety of surfaces and media, and can be understood asrepresenting the Lights-Suns of the Veil of Light(s) that separates the Face of the Almighty from allelse. The exposure to the Word in the Mushaf with the ayet being separated by a depiction of a shamsa, alittle sun, with the Real Sun being the Light of the Absolute, the combination of the Word and the Light,rooted these sun-sunburst centred designs within Islam.
