O Glory of the All-Glorious!

God bless you all. This extensive multilingual glossary is a personal project. I develop Dialectical metaRealism (an eclectic version of critical realism) and apply it, through Heartfulness Inquiry, to sociology, including religious studies, along with many other subject areas. My selection criteria combine The Unicentric Paradigm with simple personal interest. If one or more of the original languages are not displaying properly, you do not have the relevant Unicode fonts installed on your computer. You can, as an alternative, download a reasonably current PDFed version of the copyrighted book for your personal use. However, it is not for further distribution or for reposting.

Arabic (ʾal-ʿArabiyyaẗ), the default language for any non-English words defined in this text, is transliterated according to my own system. Pāli, a language which is now only studied by buddhologists, other scholars, and Buddhist scholar-practitioners, is conventionally transcribed with the Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit (Saṃskṛtam) script. Modern Hiṃdī (Hindi), Angikā, Nepālī, and, sometimes, Marāṭhī, Koṃkaṇī, Kashmiri (Kaśura), and ʾUrdū are also written in Dēvanāgarī. Sanskrit, Pāli, Hiṃdī, Angikā, Nepālī, Marāṭhī, Koṃkaṇī, and Kashmiri are Romanized using the International Alphabet of Sanskrit Transliteration (IAST).

Please also note that the glossary is an ongoing project. It is primarily intended for browsing. Any errors in scholarship are entirely my own, including with translations, transliterations, and Romanizations (rough transliterations). I am only fluent in English, but through hard study, and with the help of my personal library and online sources, I have been relearning Hebrew and working my way through the other languages, especially Arabic. Needless to say, praises go to God alone (ʾal-ḥamdʾullꞌah). For me, focusing on translation, transliteration, and Romanization has been a way to draw close, in my heart, to the individuals and ideas being discussed. Perhaps your own experiences have been similar. Learning any language comes through love.

  1. Aamadu Bamba Mbàkke (Wolof language), 1853–1927, of Senegal (French, le Sénégal, or Wolof language, Senegaal) inspired the development of ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ ʾal-Murīdiyyaẗ (see glossary entry). His Arabic name was ⫯Aḥmad ʾibn Muḥammad ʾibn Ḥabīb ʾAllꞌah (أَحْمَد اِبْن مُحَمَّد اِبْن حَبِيب الله), the highly praised one, son of Muḥammad, son of the Friend (or the Beloved) of God. He was also known by the title, H̱ādim ʾal-Rrasūl (خَادِم الرَّسُول‎), servant of the Messenger (Muḥammad). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Rasūl.
  2. ʾal-⫯Ab (الأَب‎) or ʾal-ʾÂb (الْآب‎) is the Father (Bahá’u’lláh). ʾal-ʾÂbāˁ (الآبَاء) is the plural form (collectively, “fathers” or “parents”). ʾal-⫯Abawāni (الأَبَوانِ‎), the dual form, is the parents. ⫯Abawānī (أَبَوانِي‎), the possessive or an appurtenance of ⫯abawān (أبوان‎), is my parents. ⫯Abū (ابُو) is a combining or constructing form (“father of”), as in ʾAbū ʾal-Naǧib Suḥrawardī (see glossary entry) and ⫰Ibrāhīm ʾibn Ṣamū⫯īl ⫯Abū ʾal-ʿAfiyaẗ (see the glossary entry, ʾẠḇərāhām bẹn Šəmūʾēl ʾAbūləʿạp̄əyāh).
  3. ʾal-⫯Abaʿād ʾal-ḍāfiyyaẗ (الأَبْعاد الضَافِيَّة), dimensions additional (or dimensions exhaustive), is extradimensionality.
    • ʾal-Kā⫯in ʾal-ḥayya min ʾal-⫯abaʿād ʾal-ḍāfiyyaẗ (الكائِن الحَيّ مِنْ الأَبْعاد الضَافِيَّة), being living from dimensions additional (or dimensions exhaustive), is my term for extradimensional being. ʾal-Kā⫯ināt ʾal-ḥayyaẗ min ʾal-⫯abaʿād ʾal-ḍāfiyyaẗ (الْكَائِنَات الحيّة مِنْ الأَبْعاد الضَافِيَّة), beings living from dimensions additional (or dimensions exhaustive), is the plural form.
    • Ultimately, relative reality (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Nisbiyyaẗ) or diversity (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Farq) is extradimensionality (multiple planes of existence).
    Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Taʿaddud ʾal-⫯abaʿād. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Ẓẓawāhiru ʾal-⫯abaʿād ʾal-ḍāfiyyaẗ.
  4. ʾal-⫯Abaʿād ʾal-ddāẖiliyyaẗ (الأَبْعاد الدَّاخِلِيَّة), dimensions interior, is inner-dimensionality (alternatively, endodimensionality, entodimensionality, or esodimensionality). This term refers to the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin) of Archangels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ). ʾal-Kā⫯ināt ʾal-⫯abaʿād ʾal-ddāẖiliyyaẗ (الْكَائِنَات الأَبْعاد الدَّاخِلِيَّة), beings of the dimensions interior, are inner-dimensional beings. ʾal-Kā⫯in ʾal-⫯abaʿād ʾal-ddāẖiliyyaẗ (الكائِن الأَبْعاد الدَّاخِلِيَّة), being of the dimensions interior, is the singular form.
  5. ʾal-ʾÂbāˁ ʾal-kanīsaẗ (الْآبَاء الكَنِيسَة), the fathers (or the parents) of the church, is patristics. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Ddirāsaẗ ʾal-ḥayyāẗ wa-maḏhab ʾal-bābāwāt.
  6. ʿAbara ʾal-šaẖṣiyyaẗ (عَبَرَ الشَخْصِيّة) is cross, trans, through, or over personality. It is an Arabic term for transpersonality or, as an adjective or appurtenance, transpersonal (i.e., beyond the personal). See also the glossary entry, Rāˁ ʾal-ʿilmu ʾal-nafs.
  7. ʾal-ʿAbaṯiyyaẗ (العَبَثِيَّة), absurdism (French, absurdisme), is associated with various writers, including Albert Camus (أَلْبِير كَامُو, ⫯Albīr Kāmū), 1913-1960 A.D. Absurdism, which focuses on the dissonance (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ ʾal-tanāfur) arising between an individual’s search for meaning and a meaningless universe, is, arguably, an offshoot from existentialism (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Mārksiyyaẗu ʾal-Wuǧūdiyaẗ and ʾal-Wuǧūdiyaẗ). Camus and self-styled existentialist philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre were estranged friends. ʾal-ʿAbaṯiyy (العَبَثِيّ), the possessive or an appurtenance, is the absurd (or the absurd one).
  8. ʾĀḇ-hā-ʾẠynūʾ hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אָב־הָאַינֻא הָמַלְאָךְ), ⫯Ab-ʾal-⫯Aynū ʾal-Malāk (أَب ـ الأَيْنُو الْمَلَاك), Pidar-i ʾÂynū Farištah (Persian, پِدَرِ آیْنُو فَرِشْتَه), or Pūpa-i ʿAynū Farištah (ʾUrdū, پُوپَِ عَینُو فَرِشْتَہ) is Father of the Ainu the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.
  9. ʾẠbbāʾ (Hebrew, אַבָּא‎) is father. “And he [Jesus] said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; remove this cup from me: howbeit not what I will, but what thou wilt.” (Jesus quoted in Mark 14:36. American Standard Version. 1901.)
  10. ʾal-⫯Abbālātšiyā (الأَبَّالَاتْشِيَا) is Appalachia. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Mūsīqaỳ ʾal-šaʿbiyyaẗ ʾal-⫯Abbalāš.
  11. ʾal-ʿAbd (العَبْد‎), with ʾal-ʿabīd (العَبِيد‎) and ʾal-ʿubdān (العُبْدان‎) as plural forms, is “the servant” or “the slave.”
  12. ʾal-⫯Abdāl (الأَبْدَال‎), or ʾal-badīl (البَدِيل‎) in the singular form, are the substitutes. They are the mystic pool of Ṣūfiyy leaders, directly below the quṭb, from whom the next living quṭb is selected. See glossary entry, ʾal-Quṭb.
  13. ʿAbd ʾul-Bahāˁ, ʿAbd ʾal-Bahāˁ, or, conventionally, ʽAbdu’l-Bahá (عَبْد البَهَاء), is Servant of the Light, Glory, or Splendor (1844-1921 A.D.). ʿẠbədūl-Bạhāʾ (Hebrew, עַבְּדּוּל־בַּהָא) is a Hebraized spelling (with my own approximated vowel-points). The full form of the Beloved’s title and name is ʿAbd ʾul-Bahāˁ ʿAbbās, ʿAbd ʾal-Bahāˁ ʿAbbās, or, conventionally, ʽAbdu’l-Bahá ‘Abbás (عَبْد البَهَاء عبَّاس). ʿAbdʾul-Bahā ʿAbbās (Persian, عَبْداُلْبَهَا عبَّاس, or ʾUrdū, عَبْداُلْبَہَا عبَّاس) is a transliteration of the Persianized and ʾUrdūized Arabic spellings. In His stylized signature, He commonly used the initials of His title and name, ʿ ʿ (ع ع), pronounced ʿAyn ʿAyn (عَيْن‎ عَيْن‎). I have included numerous photographs and portraits. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-ʿAyn and ʾal-Ġuṣn ʾal-⫯Aʿẓam.
  14. ʿAbd ʾal-Karīm Quṭb ʾal-Ddīn ʾibn ⫰Ibrāhīm ʾal-Ǧīliyy (عَبْد الكَرِيم قُطْب الدِّين اِبْن إِبرَاهِيم الجِيلِيّ‎) lived 1365-1424. He is commonly referred to as ʾal-Ǧīliyy (الجِيلِيّ‎), “generational,” and was associated with ʾal-ṭarīqaẗ (see glossary entry) of ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ (see glossary entry). He may have been the individual who, in 1387 A.D., first brought that ṭarīqaẗ to India. ʾal-Ǧīliyy was also known as a writer of commentaries on the work of ʾIbn ʾal-ʿArabiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Waḥidaẗ ʾal-wuǧūd). For instance, ʾal-Ǧīliyy was the author of the widely esteemed, ʾal-⫯Insānu ʾal-Kamīl (see glossary entry). See also the glossary entries, ʾẠḇərāhām and ʾal-Quṭb.
  15. ʿAbd ʾal-Qādir ʾal-Ǧīlāniyy (عَبْد القَادِر الجِيلانِيّ‎) lived 1078-1166 A.D. He was ʾal-⫯imām (see glossary entry) of ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ (see glossary entry). This blessed being was born in the city of ʾÂmul (Persian, آمُل) in ʾIyrān (Persian, اِیْرَان‎), and he died in the city of Baghdad (بَغْدَاد‎, Baġdād) in present-day ʿIrāq (العِرَاق‎, ʾal-ʿIrāq). He was a sayyid (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Sayyid). ʾal-Qādir (القَادِر‎) is the powerful one. ʾal-Ǧīlāniyy (الجِيلَانِيّ‎) is the mighty one. Therefore, his name translates as “servant (or slave) of the powerful and mighty One.” He is also known, respectfully, as Pīr-i Pīrān (see glossary entry).
  16. ʿAbdʾul-Raḥmān Bābā (Pashto, عَبْداُلْرَحْمَان بَابَا‎) lived 1653–1711 A.D. He was a Pashtun poet from modern-day Pākistāna. ʾal-Raḥmān (الرَحْمَن) or, slightly varying the original Arabic, ʾal-Rraḥmān (الرَّحْمَن), the name of a sūraẗ in ʾal-Qurʾân, is the All-Beneficent or the Merciful. See the glossary entries, Bābā, the Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement, Paṣ̌tū, ʾal-Qurʾân, and ʾal-Sūraẗ.
  17. ʾĀbəʾạbiyniyliyy hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אָבְּאַבִּינִילִיּ הָמַלְאָךְ) or ⫯Abābīnīliyy ʾal-Malāk (أَبَابِينِيلِيّ الْمَلَاك), Great Spirit or Great Mystery (Chickasaw) the Angel, is Ababinili the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). The Hebrew-language spelling, including the vowel-points, is my own.
  18. ʾẠḇəʾālōqiyṭẹsəwəwəʾrāh (or ʾẠḇəʾālōqiyṭẹsəvəvəʾrāh) hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אַבְאָלוֹקִיטֶסְוְוְארָה הָמַלְאָךְ), ⫯Afālūkītsāfārā ʾal-Malāk (أَفَالُوكِيتْسَافَارَا الْمَلَاك), ʾÂvālūkītišivārā Farištah (Persian, آوَالُوکِیتِشِوَارَا فَرِشْتَه), ʾAvālūkitēšvara Farištah (ʾUrdū, اوَلُوکِتَیشوَرَ فَرِشْتَہ), or Avalōkitēśvara Fariśtā (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, अवलोकितेश्वर फ़रिश्ता), the One Who looks down when hearing the sound or cry of the needy (Sanskrit) the Angel, is Avalokitesvara or Avalokiteshvara (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, अवलोकितेश्वर, Avalōkitēśvara) the Angel. My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. Avarōkitēshuvara (Japanese, アヴァローキテーシュヴァラ) is given as a Japanese spelling. Compare with the glossary entry, Qəwōʾən-Yin hā-Mạləʾāḵə.
  19. ʿẠḇəddiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, עַבְדִּיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), ʿAbdʾullꞌah ʾal-Malāk (عبْداللہ الْمَلَاك), and Ángelos Abdiḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Αβδιήλ) refer to Abdiel the Angel, Servant of God the Angel. He is the blessed Angel of faith. The twin cognates ʿābạd (Hebrew, עָבַד) and ʿabd (عَبْد) are servant or slave. Abdiel the Angel might be a Resident of the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin) and its Archangels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ).
  20. ʾĀbəhiymūqəhiyy hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אָבְּהִימוּקְהִיּ הָמַלְאָךְ‎), ⫯Abhīmūẖiyy ʾal-Malāk (أَبْهِيمُوخِيّ الْمَلَاك‎), ʾAbhī Mūẖī Farištah (Persian, اَبْهِی مُوکهِی فَرِشْتَه‎), ʾAbhimukhī Farištah (ʾUrdū, ابْھِمُکھِی فَرِشْتَہ‎), ʾAbhimukhī Farišatah (Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, ابْھِمُکھِی فَرِشَتَہ‎), Abhimukhī Fariśtā (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, अभिमुखी फ़रिश्ता), or Abhimukhī Fariśatā (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਅਭਿਮੁਖੀ ਫ਼ਰਿਸ਼ਤਾ), Turned Towards or Facing (Sanskrit) the Angel, is Abhimukhi (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, अभिमुखी, Abhimukhī) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). The Hebrew-language spelling, including the vowel-points, is my own.
  21. ʾẠḇərāhām (Hebrew, אַבְרָהָם) or ⫰Ibrāhīm (إِبْرَاهِيم), commonly spelled “Abraham” in the English language, is, according to tradition, the Prophetic Patriarch of the Semitic peoples. His divine Name translates as Father of many or Father of a multitude. Reportedly, His designation, prior to beginning His Prophetic Mission, was ʾẠḇrām (Hebrew, אַבְרָם), high Father. My own approximate phonetic Arabization of ʾAḇrām is ⫰Ibrām (إِبْرَام). In both ⫰Islām and the Bahá’í Faith, ⫰Ibrāhīm (ʾẠḇərāhām) is also called ʾal-Waliyy ʾAllꞌah (الوَلِيّ‌ الله‌) or ʾal-H̱alīl ʾAllꞌah (الخَلِيل‌ الله‌), the Friend of God.
  22. ʾẠḇərāhām bẹn Šəmūʾēl ʾAbūləʿạp̄əyāh (Hebrew, אַבְרָהָם בֶּן שְׁמוּאֶל אַבּוּלְעַפְיָה) or ⫰Ibrāhīm ʾibn Ṣamū⫯īl ⫯Abū ʾal-ʿĀfiyaẗ (إِبْرَاهِيم اِبْن صَمُوئِيل أَبُو العَافِيَة), circa 1240-1291 A.D., was the originator of a system of Jewish experiential mysticism (combining words, breathing, bodily movement, contemplation, and concentration) which he called hā-Qạbbālāh hā-Nəḇiyʾiym or, alternately transliterated, hā-Qạbbālāh hā-Nəviyʾiym (Hebrew, הָקַבָּלָה הָנְבִיאִים), the Kabbalah of the Prophets. It is also sometimes known, in the English language, as either Prophetic Kabbalah or Ecstatic Kabbalah. I have an extensive collection of materials related to ʾẠḇərāhām bẹn Šəmūʾēl ʾAbūləʿạp̄əyāh on my Judaism Resources page. See the glossary entries, hā-Qạbbālāh and ʾal-Nabiyy.
  23. ʾĀbərāʾqāʾdāʾbərāʾ (Hebrew, אָבְּרָאקָאדָּאבְּרָא) or, as modified by Aleister Crowley (see the glossary entry, Thelema), ʾābərāʾhāʾdāʾbərāʾ (Hebrew, אָבְּרָאהָּאדָּאבְּרָא) is the Kabbalistic formula or invocation, abracadabra (or abrahadabra). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. ⫯Abrākādābrā (أَبْرَاكَادَابْرَا), ʾAbrākādābrā (Persian, ابْرَاکَادَابْرَا), and ʾabrāhādābrā (Arabic, ابْرَاهَادَابْرَا, and Persian, ابْرَاهَادَابْرَا) are Arabized and Persianized spellings. See also the glossary entry, hā-Qạbbālāh.
  24. ʾal-⫯Abǧad (الأَبْجَد) is an acronym (أَبْجَد,   ⫯̸ ā b ǧ a̸ d) formed by the first four letters (excluding short vowels) of various Semitic alphabets (in effect, “the order”).
    • The term refers to Arabic, Hebrew, Aramaic, and some other Semitic languages which are based upon consonants. The short vowel-points are not always written out. They are either nonexistent or optional. (Contrast ʾal-⫯abǧad with the glossary entry, ʿƏbugida.)
    • In Modern Standard Arabic, an ⫯abǧad (أَبْجَد), with ⫯abǧadāt (أَبْجَدَات) as the plural form, is an alphabet. ⫯Abǧadī (أَبْجَدِي), “my own alphabet,” and ⫯abǧadiyy (أَبْجَدِيّ), “alphabetical” or “alphabetic,” are the possessives or appurtenances.
    • However, the more common usage of ⫯abǧad or, conventionally, abjad in the Bahá’í texts is to the traditional and symbolic associations between letters and numbers in Arabic and in Arabized scripts (compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿIlmu ʾal-⫯aʿdād).
    Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Abǧadiyyaẗ.
  25. ʾal-⫯Abǧadiyyaẗ (الأَبْجَدِيَّة), with ʾal-⫯Abǧadiyyāt (الأَبْجَدِيَّات) as the plural form, is the alphabet. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Abǧad.
  26. ʾal-⫯Abǧadiyyaẗ ʾal-Duwaliyyaẗ min ⫯aǧl ʾal-Naqḥaraẗ ʾal-Sanskrītiyyaẗ (الأَبْجَدِيَّة الدُوَلِيَّة مِنْ أَجْل النَقْحَرة السنْسْكْريتيّة), the alphabet international of (or from) for the transliteration of Sanskrit, is my Arabic-language translation of the International Alphabet of Sanskrit Transliteration (IAST).
  27. ʾal-⫯Abǧadiyyaẗ ʾal-Ṣawtiyyaẗ ʾal-Duwaliyyaẗ (الأَبْجَدِيَّة الصَوْتِيّة الدُوَلِيَّة), the alphabet phonetic international, is the International Phonetic Alphabet.
  28. ʾal-⫯Abhā (الأَبْهَا) is the superlative form of Bahāˁ (see the glossary entry, Bahāˁ ʾUllꞌah), i.e., the Most Glorious (or the All-Glorious), the Most Splendrous, or the Most Luminous. These words are variations in the presentation of the Greatest Name (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʾIsm ʾal-⫯Aʿẓam). See also the glossary entry, Yā Bahāˁ ʾal-⫯Abhā.
  29. ʾal-⫯Abḥāṯ (الأَبْحَاث) is research, search, consideration, study, or seeking. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Baḥaṯa.
  30. ʿĀbīr lil-qārrāt (عَابِر لِلقَارَّات), traversing of the continents, is intercontinental. ʾal-Qārraẗ (القَارَّة) is the continent.
  31. ʾĂḇiyhūʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אֲבִיהוּאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), He is the Father ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Ebuhuel (or Abihuel) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). ʾĂḇiyhūʾ (Hebrew, אֲבִיהוּא) is “he is father.” With four cognates, Hū-ʾal-ʾÂb-ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (هُو ـ الْآب ـ الله الْمَلَاك), He is-the Father-God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Ebouḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Εβουήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  32. ʾal-⫯Ab ʾal-nafsāniyy (الأَب النَفْسانِيّ) is spiritual father (more precisely, ensouled father or mental father). My spiritual father (more precisely, my ensouled father or my mental father) is ⫯abī ʾal-nafsāniyy (أَبِي النَفْسانِيّ). Pidar-i maʿnawī (پِدَرِ مَعنَوِی) is Persian for “spiritual father” (literally, father spiritual). However, a more familiar or intimate Arabic and Persian term for father (also found in other languages) is bābā (see glossary entry). Rūḥānī bāpa (ʾUrdū, روحانی باپ) is spiritual father in ʾUrdū.
  33. hā-ʿĂḇōḏāh hā-dōqəṭōrāṭ (Hebrew, הָעֲבוֹדָה הָדּוֹקְטוֹרָט), the dissertation (alternatively, thesis or paper) doctoral, is the doctoral dissertation (or the doctoral thesis).
  34. ʾal-⫯Abrār (الأَبْرار) are the righteous ones. It is a title given to Ṣūfiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣūfiyy) leaders.
  35. ʾAbrū (Persian and ʾUrdū, ابرو) is eyebrow. The Persian and ʾUrdū, ʾabrū, and the English-language, brow, are cognates. The similarity between the Persian and English-language words fascinated me in my early teens. At the time, I did not know that these near homophones (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Lafẓaẗ ʾal-mutaǧānisaẗ) were derived, etymologically, from the same Indo-European root, bhru (brow). The Sanskrit bhrū (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, भ्रू) and the Bengali bhru (ভ্রু), for “brow” or “eyebrow,” are also cognates.
  36. ʾal-⫯Abū ʾal-Hawl (الأَبُو الهَوْل), the father of horror, is the Sphinx (a man-lion). However, the Sphinx can also be referred to as ʾal-⫰Insān ʾal-Bāraʿ (الإِنْسَان البارع,) “the man masterful” (i.e., the masterful man), or using the loanword, ʾal-Sfīnks (السْفِينْكْس). Compare with the glossary entry, Nārəsiyməhāh-ʾĀwəwāṭʾạr hā-Mạləʾāḵə.
  37. ʾAbū ʾal-Naǧib Suḥrawardī (Persianized Arabic, ابُو النَجِیب سُهْرَوَرْدِی), a Sunniyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-Ssunnaẗ w-ʾal-Ǧamāʾaẗ) Muslim (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Muslim) who lived 1097–1168 A.D., founded ʾal-Suḥrawardiyyaẗ (السُهروَردِيَّة) Ṣūfiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣūfiyy) order (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ). ʾal-Suḥrawardiyy (السُهروَردِيّ) is the possessive or an appurtenance. ʾal-Suḥrawardī (السُهْرَوَرْدِی) is a Persianized Arabic spelling. ʾAbū ʾal-Naǧib Suḥrawardī was unrelated to Šahāb ʾad-Dīn ʾas-Suḥrawardī (see glossary entry).
  38. ʾẠbūn (in Hebrew script, אַבּוּן, or in Syriac script, ܐܒܘܢ), sometimes transliterated as either Abwûn or Abwoon, is “our Father” in Aramaic, referring to the beginning of the Lord’s Prayer by His Blessed Presence Jesus. An Arabic transliteration (Arabization) would look something like “⫯Abūn” (أَبُون). Meditatively, the word can be imagined while breathing in and out (ʾab-ūn). The Koinḗ, or Common, Greek version is Páter ēmṓn (Πάτερ ημών), literally “Father of ours.” See also the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Ab.

  134. ʾĀḥiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אָחִיאֵל‎ הָמַלְאָךְ), Brother in ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Ahiel (or Achiel) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). ʾAḥī⫯īl ʾal-Malāk (َاحِيئِيل الْمَلَاك‎) is my Arabization. ⫯Aẖ ʾal-⫯Ilhiyy ʾal-Malāk (أَخ الإِلهِيّ الْمَلَاك), Divine Brother the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Aiḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Αἰήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Aẖ.
  135. ʾĀhūb hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אָהוּב הָמַלְאָךְ), Maḥbūb ʾal-Malāk (مَحْبُوب الْمَلَاك), and Maḥbūb Farištah (Persian, مَحْبُوب فَرِشْتَه‎, or ʾUrdū, مَحْبُوب فَرِشْتَہ‎) are terms for Beloved the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). The name occurred to me during a personal meditation. I then searched, successfully, to see if anyone else referred to this Angelic Being. Compare with the glossary entry, Ḥāḇiyḇiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə.
  136. ʾal-⫯Aḥkām ʾal-Malik (الأَحْكَام المَلِك‎) or, modifying the short vowels, ʾal-⫯aḥkām ʾal-Mulk (الأَحْكَام المُلْك‎) are the decrees (or the provisions) of the Kingdom (or the Dominion).
  137. ʾal-⫯Ahl (الأهل‎), with ʾal-⫯ahlūna (الأَهْلُوْنَ‎) and ʾal-⫯ahlīna (الأَهْلِيْنَ‎) as plural forms, is people, family, league, or, sometimes, household. In the Bahá’í Faith, all Bahá’ís are blessed to be members of the family of the Father, Bahá’u’lláh. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-Bayt. See also the glossary entry, Yā ⫯ahl ʾal-Bahāˁ.
  138. ʾal-⫯Aẖlāqiyyāt (الأَخْلاقِيَّات) with ʾal-⫯aẖlāqiyyaẗ (الأَخْلاقِيَّة) as the singular form (“morality,” “ethical,” or “moral”), are ethics. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Aẖlāqiyyāt.
  139. ʾal-⫯Aẖlāqiyyāt ʾal-ḥālāt ʾal-ẖāṣṣaẗ (الأَخْلاقِيّات الحَالَات الخاصَّة), the ethics of situations specific (or special), are situation ethics. This philosophy was developed by Joseph Fletcher (يُوسِف فْلِيتْشِر, Yūsif Flītšir), 1905-1991. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-⫯Aẖlāqiyyāt and ʾal-Ḥālaẗ.
  140. ʾal-⫯Aẖlāqiyyāt ʾal-mihnaẗ ʾal-ṭibbu (الأَخْلَاقِيّات المِهْنَة الطِبُّ), ethics of the profession of medicine, are medical ethics.

  142. ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-Bayt (الأَهْل البيت‎) is people of the house or, in other words, household. The term refers, generally, to individuals related to or descended from the Prophet Muḥammad (see glossary entry). ʾal-Buyūtuṇ (البُيُوتٌ) or ʾal-buyūtāt (البيوتات) is houses. See the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Ahl.
  143. ʾAhl-i Haqq (Persianized Arabic, اهْلِ حَقّ‎), the People of Truth, or Yārsān (Kurdish, یَارْسَان‎) are a religious movement in parts ofʾIyrān and ʿIrāq.
  144. ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-Kitāb (الأَهْل الكِتَاب) are the people of the Book.
  145. ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-Ssunnaẗ w-ʾal-Ǧamāʾaẗ (الأَهْل السُّنَّة والجَمَاعَة) are the people (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Ahl) of the party (ʾal-ǧamāʾaẗ) of the Sunnaẗ (see glossary entry, ʾal-Ssunnaẗ). They are also called ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-Ssunnaẗ (الأَهْل السُّنَّة), the people of the Ssunnaẗ, and ʾal-Sunniyyaẗ (السُنِّيَّة). Sunniyy (سُنِّيّ), my Sunnaẗ, is the possessive or an appurtenance. Sunniyyāt (سُنِّيَّت) is the plural form (“Sunnis”). ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-Ssunnaẗ w-ʾal-Ǧamāʾaẗ are the largest major branch of ⫰Islām.
  146. ʾal-⫯Aḥmad (الأَحْمَد), the highly praised one, is taken from the same Semitic root as Muḥammad (see glossary entry). The Persian, ʾUrdū, and Šāh Mukhī Punjabi spelling is ʾAḥmad (اَحْمَد). The Hiṃdī version is Ahamada (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, अहमद). The Guramukhī Pubjabi form is Ahimada (ਅਹਿਮਦ). The Telugu and Malayaḷaṃ version is Ahmad (Telugu, అహ్మద్, and, Malayaḷaṃ, അഹ്മദ്). The Tamiḻ convention is Akamatu (அகமது). The Gujarātī form is Ēhamada (એહમદ). The Modern Turkish spelling is Ahmed. The Indonesian forms are Ahmad and Ahmed.
  147. ʾAḥmadiyah (ʾUrdū, احْمَدِیَہ, or Persian, احْمَدِیَه) or ʾal-⫯Aḥmadiyyaẗ (الأَحْمَدِيَّة), with ʾAḥmadī (ʾUrdū and Persian, احْمَدِی) or ʾal-⫯Aḥmadiyy (الأَحْمَدِيّ) as the possessive or an appurtenance, is a branch of ʾal-⫯Islām (see glossary entry) founded, on March 23, 1889, by Ḥaḍrat Mīrzā Ġulām ʾAḥmad (see glossary entry). The Hiṃdī, Telugu, and Malayaḷaṃ spelling of the movement’s name is Ahmadiyā (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, अहमदिया; Telugu, అహ్మదీయ; and Malayaḷaṃ, അഹ്മദിയാ). Ahmatiya (Tamiḻ, அஹ்மதிய) is the Tamiḻ form. The Guramukhī spelling is Ahamadi⫯ā (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਅਹਮਦਿਆ). Āh‌madīẏā (আহ্‌মদীয়া) is the Bengali form. Āham⫯madīẏa (Ōṛi⫯ā, ଆହମ୍ମଦୀୟ) is the Ōṛi⫯ā convention. Ahmediye is the Modern Turkish spelling. Ahmadiyat is the Indonesian form. Ahmadijskaâ (Russian, Ахмадийская) and Ahmadíjskaâ (Ukranian, Ахмадійская) are two Cyrillic versions. In 1914, this Punjabi movement divided into two factions:
    • The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community (الجَمَاعَة الإِسْلَامِيَّة الأَحْمَديَّة, ʾal–Ǧamāʿaẗ ʾal–⫰Is°lāmiyyaẗ ʾal–⫯Aḥ°madiyyaẗ) is located in Qadian (ʾUrdū and Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, قادیان, Qādiyān; Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, क़ादीयान, Qādīyāna; or Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਕਾਦੀਯਾਨ, Kādīyāna), which is in the Indian Punjab. According to this numerically larger organization, Ḥaḍrat Mīrzā Ġulām ʾAḥmad was a non-lawbearing prophet (and subordinate to Muḥammad, a law-bearing Prophet). The construct is fairly similar to the Bahá’í concept of a lesser Prophet (a Prophet “not endowed with constancy”).
    • The demographically smaller Lahore Ahmadiyya Movement for the Propagation of Islam is based out of Lahore (ʾUrdū, لاہورَ, Lāhūra; Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, لہورَ, Lahūra; Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, लाहौर, Lāhaura; or Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਲਾਹੌਰ, Lāhaura), now in the Pākistānī Punjab. In the view of this organization, Ḥaḍrat Mīrzā Ġulām ʾAḥmad was a muǧaddid (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Muǧaddid), not a prophet (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Nabī). Since the (smaller) Lāhūr-based group is not making a new prophetic claim, they have been less controversial, in a South Asian ⫰Islāmic context, than the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community.
    • Both ʾAḥmadī organizations regard Ḥaḍrat Mīrzā Ġulām ʾAḥmad as the mahdī (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mahdī).
    See also the glossary entries, ʾal-⫯Aḥmad, Panǧāba, and South Asia.
  148. ʾAhrīman or Ahriman (Persian, اهْرِیمَن) is the modern Persian spelling of the Ancient Avestan term for “malevolent spirit,” Aŋra Mainiiu (Ancient Avestan, ʾAhrīman in Avestan). ʾAhrīmanān (Persian, اهْرِیمَنَان) is the Persian literary plural form. ʾAhrīmanhā (Persian, اهْرِیمَنْهَا) is the Persian colloquial plural form. See also the glossary entries, ʾAhūrā Mazdā, Pārasī Maḏhab, ʾal-Zzarāduštiyyaẗ, and Zartušt.
  149. ʾal-⫯Aḥtirām ʾal-ḏāt (الإحْتِرَام الذَات), esteem (alternatively, honor, respect, reverence, deference, or veneration) of the self, is self-esteem.
  150. ⫯Aẖanūẖ (أَخَنُوخ) is Enoch. Ḥănōk (חֲנוֹך) is the Hebrew form. H̱anūẖ (خَنُوخ) is the Persian spelling. Hanūk (ہَنُوک) and ʾAynūha (اینُوهَ) are two ʾUrdū variants. Enoha (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, एनोह) is the Hiṃdī convention. Hanōka (Guramuhkī Punjabi script, ਹਨੋਕ) is the Guramuhkī Punjabi version. Some Muslims identify Him as the Prophet ⫯Idrīs (see the glossary entry, Hĕrmĕs hā-Mạləʾāḵə). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Saḥar ʾal-⫯Aẖanūẖī.
  151. ʾAhūrā Mazdā (Ancient Avestan, ʾAhūrā Mazdā, or modern Persian, اهُورَا مَزْدَا), literally, “Light of Wisdom,” was, originally, an Ancient Avestan and Zoroastrian Name of God. ⫯Ahūrāmazdā (أَهُورَامَزْدَا) is an Arabization. See also the glossary entries, ʾAhrīman, Pārasī Maḏhab, ʾal-Zzarāduštiyyaẗ, and Zartušt.
  152. ʾal-ʿĀ⫯ilaẗ ʾal-rrūḥiyyaẗ (العَائِلَة الرُّوحِيّة), with ʾal-ʿā⫯ilāt ʾal-rrūḥiyyaẗ (العائلات الرُّوحِيّة) as the plural form, is the spiritual family (literally, family spiritual). ʿĀ⫯ilatī ʾal-rrūḥiyyaẗ (عائلتي الرُّوحِيّة) is my spiritual family (literally, my family spiritual). In my opinion, each one of us can, even while still in this world, discover one’s own spiritual family in the world to come, establish a state of prayerful communion with each one of them, and long to be united, or reunited, with them after our mortal deaths. In reality, no separation exists between this world and the next. Departed souls are, figuratively, all around us.
  153. ʾÂ⫯īn-i Bahā⫯iy or ’A⫯ín-i-Bahá’í (Persianized Arabic, دِينِ بَهائِی) is the Bahá’í Faith. It is the divine Judgment which belongs to Bahāˁ (Bahá’u’lláh’s Authority). The Arabic spelling is ʾad-Diyānaẗ ʾal-Bahā⫯iyyaẗ (الدِيَانَة البهائيّة). See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Bahā⫯iyyaẗ and ʾad-Dīn.
  154. Aíresis (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, αἵρεσις) is the New Testament word for heresy. The term originally referred to a self-willed opinion or, literally, a choice, not to the inevitable differences in human viewpoints. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Naqḍ ʾal-Mīṯāq. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Harṭaqaẗ and ʾal-Ilhād.
  155. ʿĀ⫯išaẗ (عائِشَة), ʿĀ⫯išah (ʾUrdū, عائِشَہ), or ʿĀyišah (Persian, عایِشَه), living one (Arabic), was the Prophet Muḥammad’s youngest wife. It might be noted that child marriages were widely practiced in the ancient world, including in Biblical days. The lives and times of the holy Prophets should not be judged by fallible human standards.
  156. ʾĀḵāʾāyāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אָכָאָיָה הָמַלְאָךְ), the Forbearing (or Patient) Yāhəwẹh (see the glossary entry, YHWH) the Angel, is Achaia (or Achaiah) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). ʾAkā⫯ayāh ʾal-Malāk (َاكَاأَيَاه الْمَلَاك) is my Arabization. Ángelos Akaḯa (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ακαΐα) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  157. ʾal-⫯Akādīmiyyaẗ (الأَكَادِيمِيَّة), with ʾal-⫯akādīmiyy (الأَكَادِيمِيّ) as the possessive or an appurtenance (“academic”), is an Indo-European loanword for academia (or the academy). ʾal-⫯Akādīmiyyāt (الأَكَادِيمِيَّات) are academies.
  158. ʾĀḵēlōs hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אָכֵלוֹס הָמַלְאָךְ), ⫯Akaylūs ʾal-Malāk (أَكَيْلُوس الْمَلَاك), ʾÂkilūs Farištah (Persian, آکِلُوس فَرِشْتَه), or Ángelos Achelō̂ios (Ancient Greek, Ἄγγελος Ἀχελῷος) is Achelous the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. The etymology of Achelous is pre-Greek and unknown.
  159. ʾẠḵəzāriyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אַכְזָרִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Fierce in ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Akzariel the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). ʾẠḵəzār (Hebrew, אַכְזָר) is cruel or fierce. Qās fī ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (قَاس فِي الله الْمَلَاك), Fierce (or Harsh) in God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation.
  160. Akhenaten (Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, Akhenaten), born Amunhotep IV (Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, Amenhotep IV), was an Egyptian pharaoh (see glossary entry) who established the monotheistic worship of Aten (or Aton) as the official religion of the kingdom (commonly called “Atenism” in English). ʾIẖnātūn (اِخْنَاتُون) is an Arabized spelling. ʾIḥənạtūn (Hebrew, אִחְנַתּוּן) is a Hebraized spelling (with my own approximated vowel-points).
    • The pharaoh lived approximately in the fourteenth century B.C. The name Akhenaten is “Servant of Aten.” Amunhotep is “Amun is satisfied.” Aten (Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, Atem/jtn, jtn) is the solar Disk (the object of worship). Amun (Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, Atem/jtn; in Arabic, آمُون, ʾÂmūn; or in Hebrew, ʾĀmūn אָמוּן), the hidden one (Ancient Egyptian), was the dominant God in Ancient Egypt both before and after the reign of the Blessed Akhenaten.
    • Some works, such as this one, have speculated that Akhenaten was actually the Prophet Moses (see the glossary entry, Mōšẹh).
    See also the glossary entry, ʾĀtūn hā-Mạləʾāḵə.
  161. ʿAkkā (عَكَّا) is the Arabic-language name for Acre (in Israel). The Hebrew version is ʿẠkkō (עַכּוֹ). The ʾUrdū term, presumably based upon the English-language pronunciation, is ʾAykaṛ (ایکَڑ). The Persian convention, spelled slightly different from the Arabic form in the original, is ʿAkkā (عَکَّا). The Hiṃdī and Guramukhī Punjabi style is Ēkaṛa (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, एकड़, or Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਏਕੜ). The Bengali version is Ēkara (একর). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Qublaẗ.
  162. Āku-Enjeru (Japanese, アークエンジェル) is Archangel.
  163. ʾal-⫯Akūrdiyūn (الأَكُورْدِيُون) is the Indo-European loanword for accordion (the musical instrument). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Akūrdiyūn ʾal-ṣaġīr.
  164. ʾal-⫯Akūrdiyūn ʾal-ṣaġīr (الأَكُورْدِيُون الصَغِير), the accordion small, is the concertina. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Akūrdiyūn.
  165. ʾal-⫯Akwān ʾal-mutaʿddidaẗ (الأَكْوان المُتَعَدِّدَة), universes (or events) multiple, are multiple universes (or the multiverse). “Universe,” in the singular form, is ʾal-kawan (الكَوْن). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ ʾal-ʿawālim ʾal-mutaʿaddidaẗ.
  166. ʾal-, which I have not capitalized in this glossary, is the Arabic definite article (used as a prefix). It is comparable with “the” in the English language. Although Persian (see the glossary entry, Fārsī) itself has no definite article per se, the Arabic definite article is frequently found in the vast body of Persianized Arabic loanwords. Compare with the Anglicized forms of ʾal-ʾIksīr and ʾal-Kīmiyāˁ (see both glossary entries).
    • I have generally included the Arabic definite article in the glossary. Note that the Arabic language does not include an indefinite article, e.g., “a” or “an.”
    • Based upon conventional, stylistic, and regional variations in pronunciation or, especially, the first letter of the noun or adjective, the prefix is sometimes transliterated as ʾad-, ʾan-, ʾar-, ʾas-, ʾaṣ-, ʾaš-, ʾaṭ-, ʾul-, and so forth. There are also some differences in the spelling of this prefix in the original Arabic script. It is usually written as ال (“ʾal”) and rarely written as ـال (“-ʾal”). اَلْ (“ʾal-”) includes the diacritical markings.
    • ʾal- is equivalent to hā- (see that glossary entry) in Hebrew. See the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Alif, for the Aramaic definite article.
  167. ʾal-⫯Alʿābu ʾal-ǧumbāziyyaẗ (الألعَابُ الجُمْبَازِيَّة), the games calisthenic (or gymnastic), are calisthenics. ʾal-Ǧumbāziyy (الجُمْبَازِيّ) is calisthenic or gymnastic.
  168. ʾĀlāḏạyāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אָלָדַיָה הָמַלְאָךְ), the Favorable Yāhəwẹh (see the glossary entry, YHWH) the Angel, is Aladiah the Angel. He might be a Resident of the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin) and its Archangels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ). ʾAlāḏāyāh ʾal-Malāk (الَاذَايَاه الْمَلَاك) is my Arabization. Ángelos Aladia (Ἄγγελος Ἀλαδια) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  169. ʾal-ʿAlāˁ ʾal-ddīn (العَلاء الدِّين), the loftiness of judgment (or religion), is commonly Romanized as Aladdin, i.e., (without the definite articles) ʿAlāˁ ddīn (عَلاء دِّين). It is a West Asian folktale.
  170. ʾal-⫯Alahiyyāt (الإِلهِيّات), “divinities,” is theology. ʾal-⫯Alahiyyaẗ (الإِلهِيّة), the singular form, is divine, Godly, or theological.
  171. ʾal-ʿAlam (العَلَم), with ʾal-⫯aʿlām (الأَعْلَام) in the plural form, is the flag or the banner. Compare with the similarly spelled glossary entry, ʾal-ʿIlm. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Aʿlām ʾal-nubalāˁ.
  172. ʾal-ʿĀlam (العَالَم) is the world (or universe). ʾal-ʿĀlamūna (العَالَمُونَ) and ʾal-ʿawālimuṇ (العَوَالِمٌ) are plural forms. ʾal-ʿĀlim (changing a short vowel) is the singular form of ʾal-ʿulamāˁ (see glossary entry).
  173. ʾal-ʿAlāmāt ʾal-ḥaḏf (العَلَامات الحَذْف), the marks of deletion, is the elipsis. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Qaṭʿ.
  174. ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām (العَالَم الأَحْلَام) is the world of dreams. ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Manāmāt (العَالَم المَنَامَات) is another term for the world of dreams. When we go to sleep, we have our nightly reunions with our best friends, the Archangels. All dreams are real and valid; but all perceptions of those dreams are, to some extent, clouded. As Roy Bhaskar has said, the limitations of epistemology (knowledge) should not be confused with ontology (reality). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Manām.
  175. ʿAlāˁ ʾal-Malāk (عَلَاء الْمَلَاك), Loftiness (or Height) the Angel, is Eleleth the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). With two cognates, ʿIllāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, עִלָּה הָמַלְאָךְ), Raise (or Praise) the Angel, is my first Hebrew-language translation. Also with two cognates, ʿĀlāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, עָלָה הָמַלְאָךְ), Ascend (alternatively, Rise, Increase, or Surmount) the Angel, is my second Hebrew-language translation. Ángelos Elelḗth (Ἄγγελος Ελελήθ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  176. ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯arwāḥ (العَالَم الأَرْوَاح) is the world of spirits. See the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Uwaysiyyaẗ.
  177. ʾal-ʿAlam ʾal-ḥalīf (العَلَم الحَلِيف), the flag confederate, is the confederate flag. However desipicable the flag may be, the sources of United States racism are not symbolic or cultural. The sources, instead, are structural. Until the capitalist world system, led by the imperialist U.S. (which was driven by the plantation system), collapses from its own contradictions, institutional racism will persist.
  178. ʾal-ʿAlāmaẗ ʾal-su⫯āl (العَلَامَة السُؤَال), the mark of the question (or the inquiry), or ʾal-ʿalāmaẗ ʾal-ʾistifhām (العَلَامَة الاِسْتِفْهَام), the mark of the question (or the inquiry), is the question mark. The ; (semicolon character), which can be alternately represented by a separate Unicode glyph (;), is the Greek question mark. The Arabic, Persian, ʾUrdū, and Šāh Mukhī Punjabi question mark is represented by the Unicode glyph (؟). On the other hand, the ordinary English-language question mark will automatically reverse itself when included with right-to-left (rtl) Unicode Arabic or related scripts. For information on the Hebrew question mark, see the first endnote.
  179. ʾal-ʿAlāmāt ʾal-taʿib (العَالَمَات التَعِب) are signs of fatigue (German, Müdigkeitsanzeichen).
  180. ʾal-ʿAlāmaẗ ʾal-tanṣīṣ (العَلَامَة التَنْصِيص), the mark of the quotation, is the quotation mark.
  181. ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-ṭabīʿaẗ (العَالَم الطَبِيعَة) is the world of nature. ʿĀlam-i ṭabīʿat (عالَمِ طَبِیعَت) is the Persianized Arabic form.
  182. ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin (العَالَم الباطِن), the world inside, is the Inner World (alternatively, the inside world, the secret world, the hidden world, or the world of conscience), i.e., the World of Dreams.
    • In Unities of All Things and The Unicentric Paradigm, the World of Dreams is the great and glorified realm of the inner-dimensional (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Abaʿād ʾal-ddāẖiliyyaẗ) Archangels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ). These exalted Beings have sometimes been misunderstood as “gods.”
    • I sense that they connect this world and the world to come while serving as step-down transformers (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Muḥawwil ʾal-tanāquṣ) for God’s Will in this world. They have, I feel, always existed, and will continue to exist, in that world. They are neither born nor do they die.

  183. ʿĀlāmēyāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, עָלָמֵיָה הָמַלְאָךְ), perhaps the World of Yāhəwẹh (see the glossary entry, YHWH) the Angel or (alternatively) the Hidden (or Concealed) YHWH the Angel, is Elemiah the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). ʿĀlāmiyāh ʾal-Malāk (عَالَامِيَاه الْمَلَاك) is my Arabization. Ángelos Elemia (Ἄγγελος Ἐλεμια) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  184. ʿĀlamgīr Taṣawwuf (ʾUrdū, عالَمگِیر تَصَوُّف‎) is Universal Ṣūfism. See also the glossary entries, Ḥaḍrat ʿInāyat H̱‎an, ʾal-Taṣawwuf, ʾal-Taṣawwuf ʾal-ʿĀlamiyy, and Taṣawwuf-i Ǧahānī.
  185. ʾal-⫯Aʿlām ʾal-nubalāˁ (الأَعْلَام النُبَلَاء), the flags (or banners) of the noble, is heraldry. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿIlmu ʾal-šiʿārāt ʾal-nabālaẗ. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿAlam.
  186. ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-wāqiʿ ʾal-marīr (العالَم الوَاقِع المَرِير), the world of reality bitter (or scathing), is a term used for dystopia. ʾal-ʿAwālim min ʾal-wāqiʿ ʾal-mārīr (العَوَالِم مِنْ الوَاقِع المَرِير), worlds of reality bitter (or scathing), are dystopias. Contrast with the glossary entries, ʾal-Yūṭūbiyā and ʾal-Yūṭūbiyyaẗ.
  187. ʾal-ʿAlāqāt ʾal-ʿāmmaẗ (الْعَلَاقَات العامَّة), relations public, are public relations.
  188. ʾal-ʾÂlaẗ (الآلَة), with ʾal-ʾâlāt (الآلَات) as the plural form (“machines,” “machinery,” or “instruments”), is the machine or the instrument.
  189. ʾal-ʾÂlaẗu ʾal-mandūlīn ʾal-mūsīqiyyaẗ (الآلَةُ المَنْدُولِين المُوسِيقِيَّة), the instrument (or machine) mandolin musical, is the mandolin.
  190. ʾal-ʾÂlaẗu ʾal-mūsīqiyyaẗ (الآلَةُ المُوسِيقِيَّة), the instrument (or machine) musical, is the musical instrument.
  191. ʾal-ʾÂlaẗu ʾal-mutaraddidaẗi ʾal-mūsīqiyyaẗ (الآلَةُ المُتَرَدِّدَةِ المُوسِيقِيَّة), instrument (or machine) hesitating musical, is the trombone.
  192. ʾal-ʾÂlaẗuṇ ʾal-mūsīqiyyaẗuṇ ʾal-watariyyaẗ (الآلَةٌ المُوسِيقِيَّةٌ الوَتَرِيَّة), the instrument (or machine) musical stringed, is the stringed instrument. For instance, the term can be used to refer to the guitar (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Qīṯāraẗ), the tambour, (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭunbūr), or the lute (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿŪd).
  193. ʾal-ʾÂlaẗu ʾal-nnafẖ ʾal-mūsīqiyyaẗ (الآلَةُ النَّفْخ المُوسِيقِيَّة), instrument (or machine) blowing musical, is the wind instrument. For instance, the term can be used to refer to the sousaphone (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Sūsāfūniyy) or the harmonica (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Hārmūnīkā).
  194. Āḻavarakaḷ (Tamiḻ, ஆழ்வார்கள்), my own Romanization using the system of the Library of Congress and the American Library Association, or Āḻvārkaḷ, an alternate Romanization of the Tamiḻ, is Āḻavarakaḷ (ആഴ്വാര്കള്) in Malayaḷaṃ, Alavara (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, अलवर, and Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਅਲਵਰ) in both Hiṃdī and Guramukhī Pajābī script, and Alvār (అల్వార్) in Telugu. The term translates as individuals immersed in love and devotion. It refers to a movement of medieval poets and spiritual leaders in the Tamiḻ-speaking region of India. The Āḻavarakaḷ were an important dimension of the Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement (see glossary entry) in South Asia (see glossary entry). See also the glossary entry, Tamiḻ.
  195. ʾal-ʿAlawiyyaẗ (العَلَوِيَّة), as the movement, or ʾal-ʿAlawiyy (العَلَوِيّ), as a possessive or an appurtenance, are a branch of ʾal-ʾIṯnā ʾal-ʿUšriyyaẗ (see glossary entry). In the English language, ʾal-ʿAlawiyyaẗ are commonly known as the Alawites.
    • The word, ʾal-ʿAlawiyyaẗ, comes from ʿAliyy ʾibn ⫯Abī Ṭālib (see glossary entry), the first Šīʾiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Šīʿaẗ) ⫯Imām (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Imām) and the fourth Sunniyy H̱alīfaẗ (see the glossary entry, ʾal-H̱alīfaẗ). ʾal-ʿAlawiyyaẗ are are also known as ʾal-Nuṣayriyaẗ (النصيرية‎) or ʾal-Nuṣayrī (النصيري), as the possessive or an appurtenance. The etymology of ʾal-Nuṣayriyaẗ is uncertain. One explanation is that the word is derived from Muḥammad ʾibn Nuṣayr (مُحَمَّد اِبْن نصير), a follower of the tenth ⫯Imām ʿAliyy ʾal-Hādī (علي هادي نقي), who reportedly founded the movement around the year 883 A.D.
    • There are significant ʾal-ʿAlawī populations in Syria (Sūriyyā, سُورِيَّا;), Turkey (in Turkish, Türkiye), and Lebanon (Libnān, لبنان, or ʾal-Libnān, اللبنان, for “the Lebanon”).
  196. ʿAlayhi ʾal-ssalām (عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام), frequently abbreviated in the Roman alphabet as “AS” (or عس, ʿs) is “peace be upon him” (abbreviated, PBOH). In ⫰Islām, this salutation is reserved for Prophets (except for Muḥammad). However, it appears to be used for anyone who is male in Bahá’í sources. The ⫰Islāmic equivalent for women, particularly Fāṭimaẗ (see glossary entry), is ssalāmu ʾAllꞌah ʿalayhā (سَّلَامُ الله عَلَيهَا), “peace of God be upon her” (abbreviated, SAA or ساع, sāʿ). The following English-language expressions are, in my opinion, comparable to peace be upon her/him or peace and blessings be upon her/him: “God bless her/his soul (with peace),” “God rest her/his soul (in peace),” and, especially with Prophets and Their chosen ones, “thank God for her/him (or for her/his exalted soul).”
  197. ʾal-⫯Albān (الأَلْبَان) are dairy products or “dairy.” See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥalīb.
  198. ʾal-⫯Alaỳ ʾal-mustawaỳ fī ʾal-niṭāq (الأَعْلَى المُسْتَوَى فِي النِطَاق), the highest of the level in the domain, is top-level domain or TLD (on the web).
  199. ⫯Albāniyā (أَلْبَانِيَا) is Albania.
  200. ʾẠlēkəsānədẹr hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אַלֵכְּסָנְדֶּר הָמַלְאָךְ), ⫯Iskandar ʾal-Malāk (إِسْكَنْدَر الْمَلَاك), ʾIskandar Farištah (Persian, اِسْکَنْدَر فَرِشْتَه), ʾAlīgzaynḍir Farištah (ʾUrdū, الِیگزَینڈِر فَرِشْتَہ), Ángelos Aléxandros (Ancient Greek, Ἄγγελος Ἀλέξανδρος), and Arekusandā-Tenshi (Japanese, アレクサンダー天使), Defender of Man (Greek) the Angel, refer to Alexander the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. In the late afternoon of September 11, 2014, he came to me in a dream along with the beloved Emily the Angel (see the glossary entry, ʾẸmiyliy hā-Mạləʾāḵə).
  201. ʾẠləp̄āh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אַלְפָה הָמַלְאָךְ), ⫯Alfā ʾal-Malāk (أَلْفَا الْمَلَاك), ʾÂlfā Farištah (Persian, آلْفَا فَرِشْتَه), or Ángelos Álpha (Ancient Greek, Ἄγγελος Ἄλφα) is Alpha the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. See also the glossary entries, Alpha kai Ōméga and ʾŌmēgāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə.
  202. ʾẠləp̄ēʾūs hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אַלְפֵאוּס הָמַלְאָךְ), ⫯Alfayūs ʾal-Malāk (أَلْفَيُوس الْمَلَاك), ʾAlfi⫯ūs Farištah (Persian, الفِئُوس فَرِشْتَه), or Ángelos Alpheiós (Ancient Greek, Ἄγγελος Ἀλφειός), Whitish (Ancient Greek) the Angel, is Alpheus the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.
  203. ʾĀlẹp̄iyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אָלֶפִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Aleph of ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Alphiel (or Alephiel) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). ʾĀlẹp̄ (Hebrew, אָלֶף) is the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet. With three cognates, ⫯Alif ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (أَلِف الله الْمَلَاك), Alif of God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Alif.
  204. Alḗtheia (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, ἀλήθεια) is truth.
  205. Alevîlik (Turkish for Alevism), with Alevî as the Turkish possessive or an appurtenance, is the name of a distinctively Turkish brand of ʾal-ʾIṯnā ʾal-ʿUšriyyaẗ (see glossary entry) Šīʿiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Šīʿaẗ) ⫰Islām (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Islām). Alevîler is the Turkish plural form of Alevî.
    • Although the word Alevîlik is linguistically related to the Arabic, ʾal-ʿAlawī (العلوي) or “ʿAlī-ist,” the Turkish movement has no formal connection with ʾal-ʿAlawiyyaẗ (see glossary entry). Both designations, however, refer to ʿAliyy ʾibn ⫯Abī Ṭālib (see glossary entry).
    • Alevîlik teaches a divine Triad of Hak, Muhammed, and Ali (see the glossary entry, Hak Muhammed Ali ve).
    • In Arabic, ʿAlawiyyaẗuṇ (عَلَوِيَّةٌ) is Alevîlik. ʿAlawiyyātuṇ (عَلَوِيَّاتٌ) are Alevîler (Alevis). ʿAlawiyy (عَلَوِيّ) is Alevî.
    See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Mawdāliyyaẗ.
  206. ʾAlhayāt (Persian, الهیات, or ʾUrdū, الہیات) is theology (or divinity). In Arabic, ʾal-⫯ilhiyyāt (الإِلهِيَّات) is the plural for divine, Godly, or theological.
  207. ʾal-⫯Alif (الأَلِف) is the name of a letter of the Arabic alphabet. Variations are found in other Semitic alphabets. “Aleph” (Hebrew, אָלֶף) is, in Hebrew script, א, in Arabic script, ا, and in Syriac script, ܐ. The word is spelled ʾālẹp̄ or aleph (Hebrew, אָלֶף) using the Hebrew alphabet, the letter ⫯alif (ألف) using the Arabic alphabet, or the letter ʾalap̄ or alaph (ܐܵܠܲܦ) using the Syriac alphabet. ʾal-⫯Alif (ʾ) and other alephs are represented by a Unicode glyph (ℵ), based upon the Hebrew character.
    • With Arabic Romanization, an ⫯alif, when it follows another regular Arabic letter, is usually written as ā. At the beginnings of words, for purposes of Arabic Romanization, the ⫯alif is represented by the right-half-ring glyph, ʾ (followed by A/a, I/i, or U/u). An ⫯alif, in cases where it immediately follows (or is combined with) a hamzaẗ (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Hamzaẗ), is written as A/a, I/i, or U/u. Note that neither the ⫯alif (ʾ) nor the hamzaẗ (either ⫯ or ˁ) should be confused with the ʿayn (ʿ). See the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿAyn and the second and third paragraphs of this endnote.
    • In addition, the aleph functions as the Aramaic definite article. The aleph is attached to an Aramaic word as a suffix. Since, today, Aramaic is most commonly, in an academic context, written in the Hebrew script, the Hebrew ʾalep̄ would be used. For the Arabic and Hebrew definite articles, respectively, see the glossary entries, ʾal- and hā-.
    • Géʿzé (see glossary entry), with my own Romanizations using slight modifications to the system adopted by the Library of Congress and the American Library Association (replacing ’ with ʾ and ‘ with ʿ), has two alephs: First, the ʾasemāta ʾaléfé (Géʿzé, አስማተ አሌፍ) is represented through the notation, ʾa (አ). Second, the subāʿā ʾaléfé (Géʿzé, ሱባዔ አሌፍ) is represented through the notation, ʿa (ዐ).
    • Two other tentative examples: Tāna (see glossary entry) has the ʿalifu (Tāna, ަލިފު  ) character, ʿ (Tāna, އ). The Samaritan ʾalʾap (Samaritan, ʾalʾap) is ʾa (Samaritan, ʾa).
    • This letter was, originally, a hieroglyphic “ox”: “... an ox (aleph) was variously turned, flattened and extended to become an ‘A.’” (Don Robb, “Ox, House, Stick: The History of Our Alphabet.” Kirkus Reviews. Issue 12. Austin, TX: Kirkus Media LLC. 2007.) “A comes from the first letter in the Semitic alphabet, ‘aleph,’ and it represents an ox.” (Howard Richler, In the Beginning There was the Ox. Winnipeg, Manitoba: CanWest Interactive. 2000.)
  208. ʾal-⫯Alif ʾal-ẖanǧariyyaẗ (الأَلِف الخَنْجَرِيَّة), the ⫯alif of the dagger, is the dagger ⫯alif (◌ٰ◌). For my Romanizing convention, see the second paragraph of this endnote.
  209. ʾal-ʿAlīl bayna ʾal-ǧinsayni (العَلِيل بَيْنَ الجِنْسَيْنِ), queer between the two sexes or the two genders (in the dual tense), is genderqueer. In my opinion, old forms of gender are disintegrating. Gender needs to be spiritually reimagined and redeveloped. ʾal-Ǧins (الجِنْس) is sex or gender. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Mutaḥawul ʾal-ǧinsiyāṇ.
  210. hā-ʿǍliyāh (Hebrew, הָעֲלִיָּה), the ascent, is the return of Jews to the Holy Land.
  211. ʿĀliymiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, עָלִימִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Foliage in ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Alimiel the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). hā-ʿĀliym (Hebrew, הָעָלִימ) is foliage, leaves, or fronds. ʿĀlīmī⫯īl ʾal-Malāk (عَالِيمِيئِيل الْمَلَاك) is my Arabization. Ángelos Alimiēl (Άγγελος Αλιμιήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  212. ʿAliyy ʾibn ⫯Abī Ṭālib (عَلِيّ اِبْن أَبِي طَالِب) was the first ⫯Imām (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Imām) in ʾal-ʾIṯnā ʾal-ʿUšriyyaẗ (see glossary entry). He was born in approximately 601 A.D. and died in 661 A.D. The ⫯Imām ʿAliyy (إِمَام عَلِيّ), as he is often known, was both the cousin and, through his wife Fāṭimaẗ (see glossary entry), the son-in-law of the Prophet Muḥammad (see the glossary entry, Muḥammad). Most historical Ṣūfiyy (see glossary entry) orders (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ) trace their descent (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Silsilaẗ) back to Muḥammad through ʿAliyy.
  213. ʾAllꞌah (as a Unicode glyph, , or spelled out, الله‎) is the conventional Arabic Bahá’í and ⫰Islāmic title for “the God,” “the Mighty One,” or “the Chief,” i.e., Deity. The word is also used by various Christian groups, including the Coptics.
    • ⫰Ilha (إِلٰهَ), “God,” is a modified spelling of ʾAllꞌah without the definite article (ʾal). Both of these words are related to (that is to say, are cognates of): the Aramaic, ʾĔlāhāʾ (in Syriac script, ܐܠܗܐ), the Hebrew, ʾĔlāhāʾ (אֱלָהָא, “Mighty One”), and the more common Hebrew plural form of ʾĔlāhāʾ, ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry).
    • The word, ʾAllꞌah, is seen in, for instance, Bahá’u’lláh (see the glossary entry, Bahāˁ ʾUllꞌah) and ʾal-Rūḥ ʾAllꞌah (الرُوح الله‎), the Spirit of God, a term for Jesus. Many Bahá’ís regularly greet each other in the (Greatest) Name of the Most Glorious ʾAllꞌah (see the glossary entry, ʾAllꞌahu ⫯Abhā). On the ʾIyrānian flag, ʾAllꞌah is represented calligraphically, or using fancy lettering, in a style indicated by the Unicode glyph, .
    • The Amharic form, with my own Romanization using a slight modification of the system adopted by the Library of Congress and the American Library Association (replacing ’ with ʾ), is ʾAlāhé (አላህ).
    See also the glossary entry, ʾAllāt.
  214. ʾAllꞌah min ʾal-tadaẖẖul (الله‎ مِنْ التَدَخُّل), the God of intervention (alternatively, involvement or intermediation), is my Arabic-language translation of Theity. The English-language term is a portmanteau of Deity and deism (from the Latin, Deus, God) with theism (from the Ancient Greek, Θεός, Theós, “God”). Here, the implication is that God is theistic (intervening), not deistic (nonintervening).
  215. ʾAllꞌahu ⫯Abhāỳ (اللهُ أَبْهَى) is “God is Most Glorious” (or “God is All-Glorious”). The phrase, a common Bahá’í greeting, is, to suggest my own term, an Obligatory Remembrance (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḏikr), repeated ninety-five times per day following ablutions (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wuḍūˁ). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-ʾIsm ʾal-⫯Aʿẓam.
  216. ʾAllꞌahu ⫯Aǧmal (اللهُ أَجْمَل) is “God is More (or Most) Beauteous” or “God is More (or Most) Beautiful.”
  217. ʾAllꞌahu ⫯Akbar (اللهُ أَكْبَر) is “God is Greater (or Most Great).”
  218. ʾAllꞌahu ⫯Aṭhar (اللهُ أَطْهَر) or ʾAllꞌahu ⫯Aṭharu (اللهُ أَطْهَرُ) is “God is Purer,” “God is the Purest,” “God is the Rose” (figuratively), or, using ⫯aṭhar (أَطْهَر) as a verb, “God doth purify.”
  219. ʾAllꞌahu ⫯Aʿẓam (اللهُ أَعْظَم) is “God is Greater (or Most Great).”
  220. ʾAllāt or ʾal-Lāt (اللات‎) was a pre-⫯Islāmic Goddess of Arabian Mecca (مَكَّة, Makkaẗ). Etymologically, “ʾAllꞌah” (see glossary entry) may have been derived from, or be related to, ʾAllāt. Similarly, ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry), within the Hebrew Bible, originally referred to the Levantine (Eastern Mediterranean) Pantheon of Gods and Goddesses worshipped by the Canaanites (see the glossary entry, hā-Kənạʿạniym). They were each called Bạʿạl (see glossary entry). The Prophets address humanity within particular historical and linguistic contexts, but words are merely conventions, not realities. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-ʾAyāt ʾal-Šayṭān.
  221. Allosociology is the term I adopted for sociology of the other or sociology of the different, a reference to beings on other planets and dimensions. The Latin alius is derived from the Greek állos (άλλος). Both words translate as “different” or “other.” The two designations are also cognates with the English-language word “else.” In Unities of All Things, I discuss various allosociological worlds with allosociological Archangels and other allosociological beings. For the corresponding Arabic-language neologisms, see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿIlmu ʾal-ǧamāʿa ʾal-⫯uẖraỳ. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Maẖlūqāt ʾal-ẖāriq lil-ṭṭabīʿaẗ, Preternaturals, and Sociologie.
  222. hā-ʿẠlmāh (הָעַלמָה), or hā-ʿălāmōṯ (הָעֲלָמוֹת) as the plural form, is Hebrew for the young woman or maiden. This servant has listened to feverish online debates over whether “maiden” could be legitimately translated as “virgin.” As I see it, those disputes were based upon an erroneous assumption. Jesus or His chosen ones were divinely guided to accurately interpret, not to translate, the Hebrew term. ʿẠlmāh (עַלמָה), used in Isaiah 7:14, was, in my opinion, interpreted in Matthew 1:23 as virgin (Greek, παρθένος, parthénos), which is to say, as a reference to the Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus. An Arabic term for maiden or virgin is ʾal-bikr (البِكْر). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥūriyyaẗ.
  223. ʾal-ʿĀlmanaẗ (العَلْمَنَة) is secularization or secularism (more literally, worldliness). ʾal-ʿĀlimiyy (العِالَمِيّ) and ʾal-ʿālmāniyy (العَلْمَانِيّ) are secular or secularized. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Lādīniyyaẗ. Contrast with the glossary entry, ʾal-ʾUṣūliyaẗ.
  224. ⫯Almāniyā (أَلْمَانِيَا) is Germany.
  225. Alpha kai Ōméga (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, Άλφα και Ωμέγα) is Alpha and Ōméga. Alpha refers to the letter “a” (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, α). Ōméga is the name for the Greek letter “ō” (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, ω). The Greek alphabet begins with alpha (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, αλφα) and ends with ōméga (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, ωμέγα).
    • According to Jesus Christ, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.” (Revelation 22:13, American Standard Version. 1901.)
    • The Alpha Course combines video presentations with programmed group discussions on evangelical Christianity. I attended almost the entire series of programs. The format is somewhat similar to The Ruhi Institute in the Bahá’í Faith.
    • The French Roman Catholic theologian and philosopher Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (my own rendering, بِيِئِير تِيلْهَار الْشَارْدَانِيّ, Bī⫯īr Tīlhār ʾal-Šārdāniyy) adopted the letter, ōméga, for the Omega Point, his own conceptualization of God. “The true God must ... possess all the attributes ascribed to Omega Point ....” (Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, Let Me Explain. New York: Harper & Row. 1972. Page 88.)

  226. ʾẠlōhāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (אַלוֹהָה הָמַלְאָךְ), ⫯Alūhā ʾal-Malāk (أَلُوهَا الْمَلَاك), ʾÂlūhā Farištah (Persian, آلُوهَا فَرِشْتَه), or Aloha ʻĀnela (Hawaiian), Peace (Hawaiian) the Angel, is Aloha the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.
  227. ʾal-ʿAmal ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyy (العَمَل الاجْتِمَاعِيّ), work social (or action social), is social work. al-⫯Aẖiṣṣā⫯iyy ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyy (الأَخِصَّائِيّ الاجْتِمَاعِيّ), specialist (or expert) social, is social worker.
  228. ʿẠmāliyəḇakəyāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אַמָלִיְבַכְיָה הָמַלְאָךְ) or ʾAmālīfākā ʾal-Malāk (امَالِيفَاكَا الله الْمَلَاك), an important Figure among the Carab indigenous peoples of South America, is Amalivaca the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My Hebrew-language spelling is modified from the original.
  229. ʿĀmāliyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, עָמָלִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Labor of ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Amaliel the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). hā-ʿĀmāl (Hebrew, הָעָמָל) is the labor, the toil, or the trouble. With three cognates, ʿAmal ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (عَمَل الله الْمَلَاك), Labor of God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation.
  230. ʾal-ʿAmaliyyaẗ (الْعَمَلِيَّة), with ʾal-ʿamaliyyāt (الْعَمَلِيَّات) as the plural form, is the process or the operation.
  231. ʾal-ʿAmaliyyaẗ ʾal-ladġaẗ (العَمَلِيَّة اللَدْغَة), the operation sting, is the sting operation. ʾal-ʿAmaliyyāt ʾal-ladġaẗ (الْعَمَلِيَّات اللَدْغَة), the operations sting, are the sting operations. For instance, it is conceivable that, given the danger posed by far-right movements in the United States, some of the “pundits” (if one could call them by that term) of the far-right media are agents provocateurs (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀmil ʾal-muḥarriḍ) in a long-term sting operation or psychop (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿAmaliyyāt ʾal-nnafsiyyaẗ). However, using Ockham’s razor (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥilāqaẗ fī ⫯Akhām), I do not possess sufficient evidence to definitively make such a claim.
  232. ʾal-ʿAmaliyyaẗ ʾal-⫯iymān bi-ʾAllꞌah (الْعَمَلِيَّة الإِيْمَان بِالله), the process of the faith in God, is process theism. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-ʾĀyamān bi-ʾAllꞌah, ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-ʿamaliyyaẗ, and ʾal-⫯Alahiyyāt ʾal-ʿamaliyyaẗ.
  233. ʾal-ʿAmaliyyāt ʾal-nnafsiyyaẗ (الْعَمَلِيَّات النَّفْسِيَّة), operations psychological, are psychological operations (psyops). ʾal-ʿAmaliyyaẗ ʾal-nnafsiyyaẗ (الْعَمَلِيَّة النَّفْسِيَّة), operation psychological, is the singular form (psyop). For example, one of my conclusions from the Edward Snowden revelations is that the spread of the Illuminati conspiracy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mu⫯āmaraẗ ʾal-mustanīr) is, at least partially, psychops. The best way to control potentially dangerous people on the far right is to disempower them in relation to an imaginary omniscient elite. Similarly, infilitrating only a few terrorist cells will, through suspicion, turn conspiracy-minded terrorists against one another.
  234. ʾal-ʿAmal ʾal-munḥarif (العَمَل المُنْحَرِف), action deviant (or action aberrant), is my Arabic-language translation of heteropraxy. See also the glossary entry, Orthopraxy and heteropraxy.

    • The state incorporated contemporary Portugal, Andorra, Spain (including modern Andalusia), and a portion of southern France. The Muslim inhabitants of ʾal-⫯Andalus have been popularly called the “Moors” (from the Latin, Maurus, for Mauritanian, derived, in turn, from the Greek, μαύρος or Maúros, for black or dark). ʾal-⫯Andalus was operated as a province of ʾal-H̱alīfaẗ ʾal-⫯Umawiyyaẗ (الخلافة الأُمَوِيَّة) or the “Umayyad Caliphate.” (See the glossary entry, ʾal-H̱alīfaẗ.)
    • According to Shoghi Effendi, “... in some of whose [Europe’s] outlying territories have been won some of the most resplendent victories which ushered in the Golden Age of Islám ...” (Citadel of Faith, page 27). Significantly, from a Baháʾí perspective, ʾal-⫯Islām (see glossary entry) in ʾal-⫯Andalus was ʾal-Sunniyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-Ssunnaẗ w-ʾal-Ǧamāʾaẗ), not ʾal-Šīʿaẗ (see glossary entry). The Golden Age was not restricted to ʾal-Šīʿiyy Muslims. The Moors largely supported the Mālakiyy school of ʾal-fiqh (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Fiqh). For my views on the devotional center, or heart, of that Golden Age, see the glossary entry, The Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement.

    • In a Bahá’í context, ⫯Anīsaẗ (أنيسة) symbolizes the tree of life: “The Tree of Life, of which mention is made in the Bible, is Bahá’u’lláh, and the daughters of the Kingdom are the leaves upon that blessed Tree. Then thank thou God that thou hast become related to that Tree, and that thou art flourishing, tender and fresh.” (ʽAbdu’l-Bahá, Selections from the Writings of ʽAbdu’l-Bahá. Page 57.) “… in the supreme Paradise the tree of life is the expression for the center of absolutely pure sanctity—that is to say, of the divine supreme Manifestation.” (ʽAbdu’l-Bahá, Some Answered Questions. Page 124.)
    • ⫯Anīsaẗ (أَنِيسَة) as ANISA, an acronym for American National Institutes for Social Advancement, was an educational philosophy developed by various Bahá’í professors and graduate students at the University of Massachusetts’ School of Education (Amherst, MA).

ANISA was influenced by process philosophy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-ʿamaliyyaẗ) and by the seminal Bahá’í deepening (study) project of Marian Crist Lippitt (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿIlmu ʾal-Wāqiʿ).

Political officials and diplomats generally treat the demireality of modern human affairs as gray. At the same time, average people frequently see the world in black-and-white terms. Consequently, many of those same officials and diplomats need to convert a gray narrative into a black-and-white one.

The mythical island of Atlantis (see the glossary entry, ⫯Atlāntīs) refers to Atlas (with an uncertain etymology). Perhaps He was the Deity of that speculative continent.

  469. ʾal-ʾAʿtiḏāriyyāt ʾal-ʾiftirāḍāt (الاعْتِذاريّات الاِفْتِرَاضَات), the apologetics of presuppositions (or assumptions), is my Arabic-language translation of presuppositional apologetics. One of its leading figures was Kornelis (a.k.a. Cornelius) van Til (كُوْرْنِيلْيُوس فَان تِيل, Kūrnīlyūs fān Tīl), 1885-1987. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-ʾAʿtiḏāriyyāt, ʾal-ʾIftirāḍ, and ʾal-ʿIlmu ʾal-ddifāʿi ʿani ʾal-Masīḥiyyaẗ.

Yōmiyn (Hebrew script, יוֹמִין) are days. The Hebrew spelling of “days” is yōmạyim (Hebrew, יוֹמַיִם). Yōm (Hebrew script, יוֹמ) is both Hebrew and Aramaic for day. Yawm (يوم) or ʾal-yawm (اليوم) is the Arabic spelling. The Arabic plural is ʾal-ʾayyām (الأيَّام), as in the Persianized Arabic, ⫯Ayyām-i Hā (أيَّامِ ﻩَ, days of h). The Ancient of Days in Arabic, and a cognate of the Aramaic form, would be ʾal-ʿAtīq al-ʾAyyām (العَتِيق الأيَّام). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Ǧamāl ʾal-Qidam.
  471. ⫯Atlāntīs (أتْلانْتيس) is Atlantis (Ancient Greek, Ἀτλαντὶς). See also the glossary entry, ʾẠṭəlās hā-Mạləʾāḵə. Compare with the glossary entries, ʾal-Qārraẗ ʾal-Mafqūdaẗ min Mū and Līmūriyā.

My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. The Ancient Greek etymology is undetermined.
  477. ʾĀtūn hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אָתּוּן הָמַלְאָךְ), ʾÂtūn ʾal-Malāk (آتُون الْمَلَاك), and Ángelos Atṓn (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ατών) are Aten the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām).

With three cognates, ⫯Aṯīnā ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (أَثِينَا الله الْمَلَاك), Athens of God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. The etymology of Athens (Ancient Greek, Ἀθῆναι, Athē̂nai), which is related to Athena (see the glossary entry, ʾĀṯẹnāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə), is uncertain.
  479. Auṃ (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, औं) or Oṃ (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, ओं, the only spelling found in Buddhism but also used in other traditions), which is symbolized by a Unicode glyph (), is a sacred sound in various Dharmic Faiths (see the glossary entry, Dhārmika Āsthāoṃ). Auṃ is sometimes repeated as a mantra (see glossary entry) or incorporated into other mantras. The Chinese version is Ān (唵). The Tibetan form (Wylie Romanization) is oM (ༀ). The Japanese rendering is Omu (オム). The Guramukhī Punjabi convention is Ōṃ (ਓਂ).
    • Although Auṃ has no clear definition, it might be regarded as an omnipresent force or vibration. could, in my opinion, be compared with the divine Lógos (Ancient Greek, λόγος), the Word of God, the Holy Spirit, and the divine Attributes manifested to creation (as a sacred ether). Therefore, in this glossary, I have interpreted (not translated) as “the Word!” See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Hawāˁ.
    • Praṇava (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, प्रणव), the name given to in Sanskrit, is the mantra of prāṇa (see the glossary entry, Prāṇa), but praṇava has also been interpreted as shouting, sounding, humming, or buzzing (trumpeting?). That is to say, praṇava, or the Word, is revealed by ēk Ōaṅkār (see the glossary entry, ʾẸq-ʾŌnəqār hā-Mạləʾāḵə).
    See also the glossary entries, Auṃ śāntiḥ śāntiḥ śāntiḥ Auṃ, Oṃ maṇipadme hūṃ, and Om swastiastu ratu bagus.
  480. Auṃ śāntiḥ śāntiḥ śāntiḥ Auṃ (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, औं शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः औं), a common Hindu greeting, is “the Word! peace, peace, peace, the Word!”

Avatārāḥ (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, अवताराः) is a plural form. ʾAvātara (ʾUrdū, اوَتَارَ), or ʾAvātarūṉ (ʾUrdū, اوَتَارُوں) in the plural form, is the ʾUrdū convention. Speculatively, these divine Messengers might include both Prophets and Archangels. See also the glossary entry, Daśa Avatārāḥ.
  482. ⫯Aw (أَو) is “or.”
  483. ʾal-⫯Awā⫯il ʾal-ḥurūf ʾal-kalimāt (الأَوَائِل الحُرُوف الكَلِمَات), the beginning (or early) letters of the words, is the acronym. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-ʾIḥtiṣār and ʾal-Lafẓaẗ ʾal-⫯awā⫯il.

He might be a Resident of the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin) and its Archangels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ). ʾAwāmī⫯īl ʾal-Malāk (َاوَامِيئِيل الْمَلَاك) is my Arabization. Ángelos Omaēl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ὀμαηλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  485. ʾĀw hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אָו הָמַלְאָךְ), ⫯Aw ʾal-Malāk (أَو الْمَلَاك), or ʾAw Farštah (او فَرِشْتَه), Daylight (Māori) the Angel, is Ao the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.
  486. ʾal-ʿAwālim ʾal-mumakkanaẗ (العَوَالِم المُمَكَّنة), worlds of possibility, are possible worlds. ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-mumakkan (العَالَم المُمَكَّن), world possible, is possible world. The concept, in its modern form, has been attributed to Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz (غُوتّْفْرِيد فِيلْهِلْم فُون لَايبْنِتْز, Ġūttfrīd Fīlhilm fūn Lāybnitz), 1646-1716. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ ʾal-ʿawālim ʾal-mutaʿaddidaẗ, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ m, and ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ ʾal-mašrūṭ.
  487. ⫯Awġust Kūnt (أَوْغُسْت كُوْنْت) is Auguste Comte (1798-1859 A.D.). In the sense that he first named the field of study as «sociologie» (see glossary entry), or “sociology” in the English language, he was the formal founder of the discipline. ʾal-Kūntiyyaẗ (الْكُوْنْتِيَة), with ʾal-kūntiyy (الْكُوْنْتِي) as the possessive or an appurtenance, is Comtism. See also the glossary entries, ʾad-Dīn ʾal-ʾInsāniyaẗ, ʾal-Ḥarakaẗ ʾal-Sānsīmūniyyaẗ, ʾal-⫯Iyǧābiyyaẗ, and ʾal-Maḏhabu ʾal-waḍʿiyy.
  488. ʾal-ʿAwlamaẗ (العَوْلَمَة) is globalization or internationalization.
  489. ʾal-⫯Awtād (الأَوْتَاد), with ʾal-watad (الـوتـد) as the singular form, are the pegs or pillars. They are, for some orders (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ) in ʾal-Taṣawwuf (see glossary entry), directly under ʾal-quṭb (see glossary entry).

My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.
  493. ʾal-ʾÂyaẗ (الآية) is the sign or evidence (used for the verses of the Qurʾân). The plural form is ʾal-ʾâyāt (الآيات).
  494. ʾal-ʾÂyāt ʾal-Nūr (الآیات النور‎) are the signs (or, in common usage, verses) of Light. The term designates the following passage from ʾal-Sūraẗ ʾal-Nūr (السورة النور‎), the Column of Light (my translation), in ʾal-Qurʾân (see glossary entry). The parable might be a prophecy of the coming of Bahá’u’lláh, the Light of God:
    • “ʾAllꞌah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The Parable of His Light is as if there were a Niche and within it a Lamp: the Lamp enclosed in Glass: the glass as it were a brilliant star: Lit from a blessed Tree, an Olive, neither of the east nor of the west, whose oil is well-nigh luminous, though fire scarce touched it: Light upon Light! ʾAllꞌah doth guide whom He will to His Light: ʾAllꞌah doth set forth Parables for men: and ʾAllꞌah doth know all things.” (Qurʾân 24:35, A. Yusuf Ali translation.)
    • An ostensibly similar concept, the inner Light, is found within the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers). See the glossary entries, ʾal-Kwaykirz and ʾal-Nūr ʾal-dāẖil.
    See also the glossary entries,ʾal-Nūr, ʾal-Nūr ʾAllꞌah, and ʾal-Sūraẗ.
  495. ʾal-ʾÂyāt ʾal-Šayṭān (الآیات الشيطان) are the Satanic verses (literally, the signs of the Adversary or Accuser).
    • These verses have long been a thorny issue within the global ⫰Islāmic community. A common interpretation is that Muḥammad was baited, through persecution, to adopt polytheism, but He later recanted it. However, I would suggest that Muḥammad was simply making a sarcastic or sardonic comment about these three commonly worshipped Arabian Goddesses.
    • According to the Prophet, “Have ye thought upon ʾAllāt [see glossary entry] and ʾal-ʿUzzaỳ [العزى] and Manāẗ [مناة‎], the third, the other? These are the exalted ġarānīq, whose intercession is hoped for. Are yours the males and His the females? That indeed were an unfair division! They are but names which ye have named, ye and your fathers, for which ʾAllꞌah hath revealed no warrant. They follow but a guess and that which (they) themselves desire. And now the guidance from their Lord hath come unto them.” (Qurʾân 53:19-23, The Meaning of the Glorious Qurʾân. Muhammad Marmaduke Pickthall, translator.)
    See the glossary entry, ʾal-Ġarānīq, for my suggested interpretation. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-ʾAyah and ʾal-Šayṭān.
  496. ʾal-⫯Aybād (الأَيْبَاد) is an English-language loanword for the iPad.
  497. ʾal-⫯Aydiyūlūǧiyyaẗ (الأَيْدِيُولُوجِيَّة), an Indo-European cognate, is ideology, a collective (not individual) and oppressive belief system. From my own critical realist standpoint, ideologies are emergent properties (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Našūˁ) of reality (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wāqiʿ). As such, ideologies are distractions or misdirections from the demireality of oppression. Ideologies are lies. ʾal-⫯Aydiyūlūǧiyaẗ (الأيديولوجية) is “ideology” without the vowel-points and diacritical markings. ʾal-⫯Aydiyūlūǧiyyāt (الأَيْدِيُولُوجِيَّات) is the plural form. ʾal-⫯Aydiyūlūǧiyy (الأَيْدِيُولُوجِيّ), the possessive or appurtenace, is ideological or ideologue. ʾal-⫯Aydiyūlūǧiyyūn (الأَيْدِيُولُوجِيُّون) are ideologues. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Mārksiyyaẗu, ʾal-Mārksiyyaẗu ʾal-ṯṯaqāfiyyaẗ, and ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ ʾal-naqdiyyaẗ.
  498. ʾal-⫯Aydiyūlūǧiyyaẗ ʾal-⫯Almāniyyaẗ (الأَيْدِيُولُوجِيَّة الأَلْمانِيَّة), the ideology German, is the German Ideology. This apology (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʾAʿtiḏāriyyāt) for Marxism was coauthored by Karl Marx and his collaborator Friedrich Engels (see the glossary entry, Kārl Mārks wa-Frīdriš ⫯Inġilz).
    • The work’s full title, in the original German, is Die deutsche Ideologie: Kritik der neuesten deutschen Philosophie in ihren Repräsentanten Feuerbach, B. Bauer und Stirner und des deutschen Sozialismus in seinen verschiedenen Propheten (The German Ideology: A Critique of Recent German Philosophy with Its Representatives [Ludwig] Feuerbach, B. [Bruno] Bauer, and [Max] Stirner and of German Socialism through Its Various Prophets). It is sometimes abbreviated as A Critique of the German Ideology or, in German, Ein Kritik der deutschen Ideologie (my own Arabic-language translation: نَقَدَة الأَيْدِيُولُوجِيَّة الأَلْمانِيَّة, Naqadaẗ ʾal-⫯Aydiyūlūǧiyyaẗ ʾal-⫯Almāniyyaẗ).
    • This brilliant essay, my personal favorite of Marx’s works, presents a direct challenge to German idealism. The approach taken by Marx and Engels was dominated by social realism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ), not by the paradigm of social idealism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Miṯāliyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ). Both men ultimately rejected the neo-Kantian or idealistic assumptions of Hegelianism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Hīġiliyyaẗ). The numerous revisionary (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Taḥarīfiyaẗ ʾal-Mārksiyyaẗ) forms of cultural Marxism (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Mārksiyyaẗu and ʾal-Mārksiyyaẗu ʾal-ṯṯaqāfiyyaẗ) would come later.
    • The following statement, affirmed within contemporary critical realism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ ʾal-naqdiyyaẗ ʾal-muʿāṣiraẗ), distinguishes idealism from Marx’s own critical realism: “Life is not determined by consciousness, but consciousness [is determined] by life.” (A Critique of the German Ideology. Page 6.) „Nicht das Bewußtsein bestimmt das Leben, sondern das Leben bestimmt das Bewußtsein”. (Die deutsche Ideologie: Kritik der neuesten deutschen Philosophie in ihren Repräsentanten Feuerbach, B. Bauer und Stirner und des deutschen Sozialismus in seinen verschiedenen Propheten. Original German-language version. Written 1845-1846. Page 7.)

The etymology is uncertain. ʿAy⫯īl ʾal-Malāk (عَيئِيل الْمَلَاك) is my Arabization.
  500. ʾẠyəqəʾāḡəʾạṭāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אַיְקְאָגְאַטָה הָמַלְאָךְ), ⫯Aykāǧātā ʾal-Malāk (أَيْكَاجَاتَا الْمَلَاك), ʾAykāǧātā Farištah (Persian, ایْكَاجَاتَا فَرِشْتَه), ʾAykaǧaṭā Farištah (ʾUrdū, ایکَجَٹَا فَرِشْتَہ), ʾAykaǧaṭā Farišatah (Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, ایکَجَٹَا فَرِشَتَہ), Ēkajaṭā Fariśtā (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, एकजटा फ़रिश्ता), or Ēkajaṭā Fariśatā (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਏਕਜਟਾ ਫ਼ਰਿਸ਼ਤਾ), Single Braid of Hair (Sanskrit) the Angel, is Ekajata (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, एकजटा, Ēkajaṭā) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). The Hebrew-language, Arabic-language, and Persian-language spellings are my own.
  501. ʾal-ʾAyǧābiyyaẗ ʾal-nafs ʾal-ḥadīṯ (الإِيجَابِيَّة النَفْس الحَدِيث) is, in order, positive self (or soul) talk. The concept of positive self-talk resembles the older notion of spiritual affirmation (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Tākīd ʾal-rūḥāniyy). The practice of positive self-talk has been promoted by Wayne Dyer (وايْن داير, Wāyn Dāyir), born in 1940, among others. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Fikr ʾal-Ǧadīd.
  502. ʾal-⫯Aykīdū (الأَيْكِيدُو) is Aikido (the martial art). Aikidō (Japanese, 合気道, あいきどう, or アイキドー) is the Japanese version.
  503. ʾal-ʿAyn (العَيْن), with ʾal-ʿuyūn (الْعُيُون or, without the diacritics, العيون) as the plural form, can be translated as either the eye or the spring (perhaps dayspring). The dual tense is ʾal-ʿaynayn (العَيْنَيْن) for two eyes. ʿAyniṇī (عَيْنٍي) are “my two eyes.” In Hebrew, hā-ʿạyin (העַיִן), with hā-ʿạyiniyym (העַיִנִיים) as the plural form, is also “the eye” or “the spring” (the Hebrew letter, ע).
    • This letter (the Arabic, ع, and the Hebrew, ע), represented by the left-half-ring glyph (ʿ), is, because of its curved shape, named for the eye (عَيْن, ʿayn). Using the word for the “eye” to refer to “spring” is analogous to the English-language expression, “The eyes are windows to the soul,” or to comparing eyes, poetically, to “pools of water.” As a verb, ʿayn (عَيْن) or ʿayyana (عَيَّنَ) can be translated as “to designate,” “to assign,” or “to appoint.”
    • With ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) code, including in email messages, ʾal-ʿayn is sometimes represented by the Arabic number 3 (as the mirrored reflection of Ɛ or, approximately, ع).
    See also the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿAyn ʾal-ǧamʿ.
  504. ʾal-ʿAyn ʾal-ǧamʿ (العَيْن الجَمْع), is, literally, “eye togetherness,” “the eye gathering,” or, poetically perhaps, “the confluence of springs.” Historically, in ʾal-Taṣawwuf (see glossary entry), ʾal-ʿayn ʾal-ǧamʿ has been a designation given to the ecstatic Ṣūfiyy practice of eye-gazing. It was reportedly followed by Mawlānā Ǧalāl ʾad-Dīn Muḥammad Rūmī (see glossary entry) and his teacher, Dīvān-i Šams-i Tabrīzī (see the glossary entry, Diyəwəʾān-Šʾāməs-mi-Ṭābəriyz hā-Mạləʾāḵə). See also the glossary entries, ʾal-ʿAyn, Mawlānā, ʾal-Mawlawiyyaẗ, and ʾal-Ṣūfiyy.

Ángelos Iaiēl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ιαιηλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.

Bābāyān (بابایان) is the Persian literary plural form. Bābāhā (باباها) is the Persian colloquial plural form.
    • The word, bābā, is an Indo-European cognate with the English-language, “papa” (including its abbreviated version, “pop”), “pope,” and “papacy.” The Tamiḻ Romanization, which resembles the English-language spelling, is pāpā (பாபா). The modern Turkish spelling is baba with babalar as the plural form. The Armenian spelling is also baba (Armenian, բաբա) with babaner (բաբաներ) as the plural form. In the Semitic (i.e., non-Indo-European) language of Arabic, bābā (بابا) is “daddy” with bābawāt (بَابوَات) and bābāwāt (بَابَاوَات) as plural forms. ʾal-Bābā (البابا), with ʾal-bābāwāt (البَابَاوَات) as the plural form, is the Pope (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥabru).
    • However, in many of the popular cultures throughout both South Asia (see glossary entry) and West Asia (see glossary entry), the definition of the term, bābā, has been expanded to include: a father, a grandfather, a grandmother, a sage (a wise elder), a saint, a sādhu (see the glossary entry, Sādhu and sādhvī), a guru (see glossary entry), a walī (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Waliyy ʾAllꞌah), a šayẖ (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Šayẖ), and a pīr (see glossary entry).

    • Bulhē Šāh, a great Punjabi poet, lived 1680–1757 A.D. He was born during the final decades of the Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement (see glossary entry). His birth name was ʿAbdʾullꞌah Šāh (Šāh Mukhī Punjabi and ʾUrdū, عَبدُاللہ شَاہ, ʿAbdʾullꞌah Šāh; Persian, عَبْدُالله شَاه, ʿAbdʾullꞌah Šāh; Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਅਬਦੁੱਲਾ ਸ਼ਾਹ, Abadulā Śāha; Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, अबदुल्लाह शाह, Abadullāha Śāha; Bengali, আব্দুল্লাহ শাহ, Ābdullāha Śāha; Tamiḻ, அப்துல்லா ஷா, Aptullā Ṣā; or Telugu, అబ్దుల్లా షా, Abdullā Ṣā), servant (or slave) of God, king.

    • Bulhē Šāh, like his eminent predecessor Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū (see glossary entry), was a Punjabi. Both men belonged to the Qādirī (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ) Ṣūfiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣūfiyy) order (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ). However, Bulhē Šāh’s particular branch of ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ was apparently influenced by ʾal-Šaṭṭāriyyaẗ (see glossary entry). Bulhē Šāh’s approach to ʾal-⫯Islām (see the glossary entry) was open and tolerant, and, unlike some other Punjabi Muslims, he respected the Sikhs (see the glossary entry, Sikhī) of the Punjab (see the glossary entry, Panǧāba). He was, indeed, a blessed soul.
    • Dear Bulhē Šāh and his exalted presence Bāhū are two of the most popular and beloved saints in Punjabi history. Although I do not believe in a literal reincarnation of human souls, in my opinion, Bulhē Šāh was the return of the spiritual and rational attributes of Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Maʿād, Metempsýchōsis, Mokṣa, Punar janma, Saṃsāra, and ʾal-Tanāsuẖ.

Bārāh (Biblical Hebrew, בָּרָה) is to eat. ⫯Akl fī ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (أَكْل فِي الله الْمَلَاك‎), Eating (or Consumption) in God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation.

It should not be confused with the Arabic, ʾal-burāq (البُراق), and the Hebrew, hā-bārāq (הבָּרָק), lightning. Contrast with the glossary entries, Bārạḵiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə and ʾal-ʾIsrā⫯ w-ʾal-Miʿrāǧ.
  588. Bārạḵiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, בָּרַכִיאֵל‎ הָמַלְאָךְ), Blessing of ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Barakiel (alternatively, Barbiel, Barbuel, Baruel, Barbiela, Berekeel, or Baruchiel) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). ʾal-Barakaẗ ʾal-⫯Ilhiyyaẗ ʾal-Malāk (البَرَكَة الإِلهِيَّة الْمَلَاك), Divine Blessing the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Barakiḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Βαρακιήλ) appears to be an accurate Greek spelling. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Barakaẗ and Bārāqiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə.
  589. Bārāqiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, בָּרָקִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Lightning of ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Barqiel (alternatively, Barchiel or Barachiel) the Angel (allegedly, the Angel of Pisces), possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). hā-Bārāq (Hebrew, הָבָּרָק) is the lightning. Burāqī⫯īl ʾal-Malāk (بُرَاقِيئِيل الْمَلَاك) is my Arabization. Burāq ʾal-⫯Ilhiyy ʾal-Malāk (بُراق الإِلهِيّ الْمَلَاك‎), Lightning of God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Barachiēl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Βαραχιηλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. He may have been associated with the Prophet Muḥammad (see glossary entry). See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Barakaẗ, Bārạḵiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə, and ʾal-ʾIsrā⫯ w-ʾal-Miʿrāǧ.

  592. ʾal-Barīd ʾal-⫯iliktrūniyy (البَرِيد الإلكْتْروني), mail electronic, is email. ʾal-Rasā⫯il ʾal-⫯iliktrūniyyaẗ (الرَسَائِيل الإلكْتْرونية), messages electronic, are emails. ʾal-Risālaẗ ʾal-⫯iliktrūniyyaẗ (الرِسَالَة الإلكْتْرونية‎), the message electronic, is the email message (i.e., the particular email). ʾal-Risālaẗ (الرِسَالَة‎) is the message.
  593. ʾal-Barīd sarīʿ (البَرِيد سَرِيع‎), mail quick (or mail fast), is my Arabic-language translation of QWK mail, an email format used on BBS systems (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Nniẓām ʾal-lawḥaẗ ʾal-našarāt). “QWK” is Internet slang for “quick” (not an abbreviation). Sarīʿ (سَرِيع‎) is an adjective for quick (or fast).
  594. Bạriyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, בַּרִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ‎), Son of God the Angel, is Bariel (or Briel) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). hā-Bạr (Hebrew, הָבַּר) is the son. Bin ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk بِن الله الْمَلَاك‎), Son of God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Bariḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Βαριήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. See also the glossary entry, ʾIbn.
  595. ʾal-Barmaǧiyyāt ʾal-ẖabīṯaẗ (البَرْمَجِيَّات الخَبِيثَة) programming (or software) malicious (or malignant), is malware.
  596. hā-Bạr miṣəwāh (הָבַּר מִצְוָה) or bar mitzvah is Aramaicized Hebrew for son of commandment. The Hebrew plural is hā-bēniy miṣwāh (הָבֵּנִי מִצוָה). hā-Bạṯ miṣəwāh (הָבַּת מִצְוָה), bat mitzvah, or bas mitzvah is Hebrew for daughter of commandment. The Hebrew plural is hā-bạnōṯ miṣwāh (הָבַּנוֹת מִצוָה‎). Becoming a bạr or bạt miṣwāh is associated with a coming-of-age ceremony. God bless Rabbi (see the glossary entry, Rạbbiy) Joel Bernstein, in New York City, for teaching me, in preparation for my own bạr miṣəwāh (בַּר מִצְוָה), how to read Hebrew. He ran an unaffiliated Hebrew school, with no formal connection to any Jewish temple (and perhaps to no particular Jewish movement or “denomination”), out of his basement in Bayside, Queens.
  597. ʾal-Bārnaqīl (البَرْنَقِيل) is the barnacle or the barnacles.

  600. Bạr-Tạləmạy-hā-Zəḵạrəyāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, בַּרתַּלְמַי־הָזְכַרְיָה הָמַלְאָךְ), Son of the Furrowed - Yah (see the glossary entry, YHWH) has remembered the Angel, is, as the name has been commonly abbreviated, Bartzachiah (alternatively, Bartzachia or Bartzachariah) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin).

  601. ʾal-Barzaẖ (البَرْزَخ‎) is the isthmus (or the partition).
  602. ʾal-Barzawiyyāt (البَرْزَوِيَّات‎) are protozoa.
  603. Bā Šāhrāh va bī Šāhrāh (Persianized Arabic, با شَاهْرَاه وَ بِی شَاهْرَاه‎) refer, among ʾal-Ṣūfiyyaẗ (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣūfiyy) and ʾal-fuqarā (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Faqīr), to a pair of ideal types (see the glossary entry, Idealtypus) which are utilized within South Asia and elsewhere. These types focus upon relative degrees of doctrinal orthopraxy (conformity to ʾal-Šarīʿaẗ or, roughly, religious law or, in practice, pronomianism) and heteropraxy (nonconformity to ʾal-Šarīʿaẗ or, in effect, antinomianism):
    • Bā Šāhrāh (Persianized Arabic, با شاهراه) is “with Šarīʿaẗ” (orthopraxic or pronomian). Bā (Persian, با) is “with.” Šāhrāh (Persianized Arabic, شاهراه) is ʾal-Šarīʿaẗ (see glossary entry). The Arabic term would be maʿa ʾal-Šarīʿaẗ (مَعَ الشريعة). Maʿa (مَعَ‎) is “with.” Throughout the course of ⫰Islāmic history, the overwhelming majority of Ṣūfiyy orders have been, formally, bā Šāhrāh. Consequently, ʾal-Taṣawwuf (see glossary entry) has been tolerated, even actively promoted, in many predominantly Muslim societies. The Persian, va, and the Arabic, wa (both, و), are “and.”
    • Bī Šāhrāh (Persianized Arabic, بی شاهراه) is “without Šarīʿaẗ” (heteropraxic or antinomian). Bī (Persian, بی) is “without.” The Arabic term would be bilā ʾal-Šarīʿaẗ (بِلَا الشريعة). Bilā (بِلَا) is “without.” Contemporary or recent examples of bī Šāhrāh include the Čištī (see glossary entry) Universal Ṣūfism of Ḥaḍrat ʿInāyat H̱‎an (see glossary entry), the Naqšbandī (see glossary entry) orders of Rāma Candra (see glossary entry) with his son Mahātmā Jagamohana Nārāyaṇa (see glossary entry) and nephews Rāḍhā Mohana Lal (see glossary entry) and Šayẖ Dàoshòubuddha (see glossary entry), the Naqšbandī orders of H̱āndān-i Šāh (see glossary entry), the Rapid Method of ʿAdnān Sarhān (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Šaṭṭāriyyaẗ), some branches of ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ ʾal-Muntahiyyaẗ (see glossary entry) of Ḥaḍrat Siyyidnā Riyāḍ ʾAḥmad Sarkār Guhar Šāhī (see glossary entry), and ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ of Śrī Viśva Vijñāna Vidyā Ādhyātmika Pīṭham (see glossary entry).
    • “... the orders that adhered more closedly to the Shariat (known as ba-shara) attracted Hindus only to a limited extent, whereas the be-shara pirs (those who went against the Shariat) had Hindu disciples. On the whole, everyone in Sindh (Hindus and Muslims alike) would have affiliation with some Sufi pir, and to be without such affiliation was a matter of some embarrassment.” (Rita Kothari, “Being-in-translation: Sufism in Sindh.” Decentering Translation Studies: India and Beyond. Judy Wakabayashi and Rita Kothari, editors. Philadelphia, PA: John Benjamins North America. 2009. Page 124.) In my opinion, “against” is too strong a word in most cases. “Nondemanding” would usually be more accurate.
    • “The extent of flow of non-Islamic ideas into Sufism had so much impact that in the long run it was considered as roughly divided into orthodox (ba-shara’) and heterodox (be-shara’)—conforming to orthodox Islam and not conforming to orthodox Islam—respectively. Incidentally, this division was seen applicable particularly to non-Semitic countries [sic] like India and Africa, especially the former, where a new heterodox mystic movement facilitated through the interaction of Hindu-Muslim ideas was born, well-known as the Bhakti movement, promoted by Kabir (1440-1518), the Bhakta, influenced the entire sub-continent of the present-day Bangladesh, India and Pakistan, generating a large group of suborders named Kabir-Panthis.” (Dr. Muhammad Hedayetullah, A Compact Survey of Islamic Civilization. Bloomington, IN: AuthorHouse. 2012. Kindle edition.)
    • “The realised individual, according to many Sufi authorities, is relieved of the constricting performance of various kinds of social behavior which were intended to help lead to realisation.... This has led to the Sufis being called heretics and apostates, and to the appearance of some large but atypical communities called Bi-Shara’ (Lawless), and even to the distinction between the Bi-Shara’ and the Ba-Shara’ — those who observe the Law. Many Sufis in Islamic countries, including some of the greatest ones, like Hallaj 1,000 years ago, and Rumi, who died in 1273, have said and written things which, in Islamic Law, brand them as apostates.” (Inayat Khan, “Beginning to Begin”: Neglected Aspects of Sufi Study. London: Octagon Press. 2002. Page 59.)
    • His blessed Presence Bahá’u’lláh (see the glossary entry, Bahāˁ ʾUllꞌah) expressed a clear preference for Bā Šāhrāh: “In all these journeys [through the Seven Valleys] the traveler must stray not the breadth of a hair from the ‘Law’ [ʾal-Šarīʿaẗ], for this is indeed the secret of the ‘Path’ [ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ] and the fruit of the Tree of ‘Truth’ [ʾal-Ḥaqīqaẗ]; and in all these stages he must cling to the robe of obedience to the commandments, and hold fast to the cord of shunning all forbidden things, that he may be nourished from the cup of the Law and informed of the mysteries of Truth.” (“The Seven Valleys,” The Seven Valleys and the Four Valleys. Pages 39-40.)

  604. ʾal-Baṣariyyāt (البَصَرِيَّات) is optics or opticianry. ʾal-Baṣariyyaẗ (البَصَرِيَّة‎), the singular form, is optical or visual. ʾal-Naẓārātiyy (النَظَّارَاتِيّ), with ʾal-naẓārātiyyāt (النَظَّارَاتِيَّات‎) as the plural form, is the optician or the optometrist.
  605. Basava (Kannaḍa script, ಬಸವ), 1134–1196 A.D., was the founder of Lingāyat (see glossary entry). One of its sacred texts, Basava-Purāṇa (Kannaḍa script, ಬಸವ ಪುರಾಣ), tells the life story of Basava. Purāṇa (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, पुराण) translates as tales of ancient times. See also the Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement.
  606. ʾal-Baṣīr (البَصِير‎) and ʾal-baṣīraẗ (البَصِيرَة), with ʾal-baṣīrāt (البَصِيرَات‎) as a plural form, is the visionary, the seer, the clear-sighted one (or clairvoyant), the astute one, the insightful one, or the knowing one.
  607. ʾal-Bašīr (البَشِير‎) and ʾal-bašār (البَشَار) can be translated as: the precursor, harbinger, forerunner, omen, herald, augry, presage, portent, dawn, or (deliverer of) glad-tidings. Tabāšīr (تَبَاشِير‎), ʾal-bašā⫯ir (البَشَائِر‎), and ʾal-bušarāˁ (البُشَراء) are plural forms. However, Bašār (بَشِير‎), Romanized as Bashar, refers, additionally, to an alleged extraterrestrial entity who is being channeled by Darryl Anka (دَارِّيل أَنْكَاء, Dārrīl ⫯Ankāˁ), born in 1951. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Tawǧīh.
  608. ʾal-Basmalaẗ (البَسْمَلَة) is an Arabic acronym of bismi ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Rraḥmān ʾal-Rraḥīm (بِسْمِ الله الرَّحْمَن الرَّحِيم). The phrase translates as “in the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Compassionate (or the Most Merciful).” It prefaces each sūraẗ (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Sūraẗ) of ʾal-Qurʾân (see glossary entry), except for the ninth sūraẗ.
  609. Bāṣūʾē hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, בָּצוּאֵ הָמַלְאָךְ), Bātšuway ʾal-Malāk (بَاتْشُوَي الْمَلَاك), or Ángelos Bachoue (Greek, Ἄγγελος Βαχουε), Bare-Breasted One (Chibcha language of the Muisca First-Nations people of Colombia) the Angel, is Bachué (or Bachue) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.

  611. ʾal-Baṭal ʾal-ṯaqāfiyy (البَطَل الثَقَافِيّ), the hero cultural, is my Arabic-language translation of culture hero. ʾal-Baṭalaẗ ʾal-ṯṯaqāfiyyaẗ (البَطَلَة الثَقَافِيَّة‎), the heroine cultural, is my Arabic-language translation of culture heroine. ʾal-⫯Abṭāl ʾal-ṯṯaqāfiyyaẗ (الأَبْطَال الثَقَافِيَّة), heroes cultural, is my Arabic-language translation of culture heroes (or culture heroines). ʾal-Baṭalāt ʾal-ṯṯaqāfiyyaẗ (البَطَلَات الثَقَافِيَّة‎), the heroines cultural, is my Arabic-language translation of culture heroines.
  612. Bāṭēliyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, בָּטֵלִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Cease in ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Bataliel the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). Bāṭēl (Hebrew, בָּטֵל) is to cease. Waqafa fī ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (وَقَفَ يِي الله الْمَلَاك), Cease in God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation.
  613. ʾal-Bāṭin w-ʾal-ẓāhir (البَاطِن والظَاهِر), the hidden and the manifest, are a common Islamicate (see glossary entry) dialectic. This pair of concepts is illustrated quite well by the following verse from hā-TạNạ″Ḵə (see glossary entry): “The secret things [Hebrew, הָנִּסְתָּרֹת‎, hā-nisətārōṯ, the hidden] belong unto Jehovah our God; but the things that are revealed [Hebrew, הָנִּגְלֹת, hā-nigəlōṯ, the manifest] belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law [Hebrew, הָתּוֹרָה הָזֹּאת, hā-Tōrāh hā-zōʾṯ, Instruction this].” (Deuteronomy 29:29, American Standard Version. 1901.) See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Ẓāhir.
  614. Bạṯ-Qōl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, בַּת־קוֹל‎ הָמַלְאָךְ), Daughter of Sound (alternatively, Voice or Noise) the Angel, is Bat Qol (or Bath Kol) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). ʾIbnaẗ-ʿAqīraẗ ʾal-Malāk (اِبْنَة ـ عَقِيرَة الْمَلَاك‎), Daughter of Voice the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. ʾal-Banāt (البَنَات) are the daughters.
  615. Bātrīk ʾal-Malāk (بَاتْرِيك الْمَلَاك‎), Pāṭəriyq hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, פָּטְרִיק הָמַלְאָךְ), or Ángelos Patríkios (Greek, Ἄγγελος Πατρίκιος) are Patrick the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). The Latin Pātricius and the Greek Patríkios (Πατρίκιος) translate as “patrician.” (The Latin Pātricia is a form of Pātricius.) On July 8, 2014, I had a contact experience with Patrick the Angel in my dreams. The Angel took the form of famed broadcaster, John Charles Daly (يَحْيَى تْشَارْلْز دَالِيّ, Yaḥyaỳ Tšārlz Dāliyy), 1914-1991, God bless his soul.
  616. ʾal-Baṭṭāriyyaẗuṇ (البَطَّارِيَّةٌ), with ʾal-baṭṭāriyyāt (البَطَّارِيَّات) as the plural form, is the battery.
  617. ʾal-Bawdkāst (البَوْدْكَاسْت) is the English-language loanword for podcast. Pādkast (Persian, پَادْکَسْت) is the Persian-language version.
  618. ʾal-Bayʿaẗ (البَيْعَة), or ʾal-mabīʿāt (المَبِيعَات‎) as the plural form, is the sale, the transaction, the deal, or the bargain. The “seller” or “salesman” would be ʾal-bā⫯iʿ (البائِع‎) with ʾal-bāʿaẗ (البَاعَة‎) as the plural form. The “saleswoman” is ʾal-bā⫯iʿaẗ (البائِعَة) with ʾal-bā⫯iʿāt (البائِعَات) as the plural form. In ʾal-Taṣawwuf (see glossary entry), specifically, the term bayʿaẗ (بَيْعَة) refers, in the sense of chivalry, to the act of giving, pledging, or, strictly speaking, “selling” one’s allegiance or homage to a Ṣūfiyy guide or leader.
    • The spiritual “selling” process involves a figurative, and frequently literal, handshake agreement (“shaking on it”), or, to be more precise, a handclasp. In effect, one then becomes a member of that Ṣūfiyy order. This event is sometimes called an “initiation,” but receiving “permission” or a “license” (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Iǧāzaẗ) to follow the practices of the order would, in most cases, be more accurate.
    • Initiation and mystagogy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Talqīn fī ʾal-⫯asrār ʾad-dīn), as those terms are often defined, can be seen in the Hindu practice of dīkṣā (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, दीक्षा), “consecration,” when a secret mantra might be given or during which an occult energy is allegedly stimulated. (For a discussion of esoteric Hindu and Buddhist energy stimulation, see the glossary entry, Kuṇḍalinī.)
  619. ʾal-Bayān (البَيَان‎) is the Exposition (alternatively, the statement, the declaration, or the manifesto). The Persian and ʾUrdū rendering is Bayān (بیان‎). ʾal-Bayānāt (البَيَانَات‎) is the Arabic plural form.
    • ʾal-Bayān is the name given to two Tablets written by the Báb: ʾal-Bayān ʾal-Arabiyy (البَيَان العَرَبِيّ‎, the Arabic Exposition), 1847 or 1848 A.D., and Bayān-i Fārsī (Persianized Arabic, بَیَانِ فَارسِی, Persian Exposition), circa 1848 A.D.
    • The term has also been used in a variety of other contexts. For instance, ʾal-Bayān (commonly transliterated, Al Bayan) is the name of a popular Arabic-language newspaper published in ʾal-Dubai (Dubaiyy or ʾal-Dubayy, الدبيّ), and of another newspaper published in Iraq (ʾal-ʿIrāq, العِرَاق) by the ⫰Islāmic Daʿwaẗ (دعوة) Party or ⫰Islāmic Call Party (ʾal-Ḥizb ʾal-Daʿwaẗ ʾal-⫯Islāmiyyaẗ, الحِزْب الدَعْوَة الإِسْلَامِيَّة‎).
    See the glossary entry, ʾal-Daʿwaẗ.
  620. ʾal-Bayān ʾal-⫯iymān (البَيَان الإِيمان) or ʾal-bayān min ʾal-⫯iymān (البَيَان مِنْ الإِيمان) is the statement of faith (German, das Glaubenssatz). ʾal-Bayānāt min ʾal-⫯iymān (البَيَانَات مِنْ الإِيمان) are statements of faith.
  621. ʾal-Bayān ʾal-Šuyūʿiyy (البيان الشُيُوعِيّ), the manifesto (alternatively, exposition or statement) communist, is the Communist Manifesto. The full name of the document is the Manifesto of the Communist Party (German, Manifest der Kommunistischen Partei) or, in Arabic, ʾal-Bayān min ʾal-Ḥizbi ʾal-Šuyūʿiyy (البيان مِنْ الحِزبِ الشُيُوعِيّ), the manifesto of (or from) the party communist. It was written by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels (see the glossary entry, Kārl Mārks wa-Frīdriš ⫯Inġilz).
  622. Ḇạyḇạsəḇạṭāh-Mānū hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, בַיבַסְבַטָה־מָנוּ הָמַלְאָךְ), Fayfāsfātā-Mānū ʾal-Malāk (فَيفَاسْفَاتَا ـ مَانُو الْمَلَاك), Vāyvāsvātā Mānū Farištah (Persian, وَایوَاسْوَاتَا مَانُو فَرِشْتَه), or Vayvasvata Manū Farištah (ʾUrdū وَیوَسوَتَ مَنُو فَرِشْتَہ), Man of the Sun (literally, Sun Man) the Angel, is Vaivasvata Manu (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, वैवस्वत मनु) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām).

    • That revitalization (and occasionally interfaith) movement, which remains my personal ideal type (see the glossary entry, Idealtypus) for devotion, has had an enduring impact upon South Asia. The movement demonstrated the cross-fertilizations, though not always unified, of many primarily subaltern (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṯānaw) populations of Hindus and Muslims. The latter were both Šīʾiyy (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Šīʿaẗ and Čištī) and Sunniyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-Ssunnaẗ w-ʾal-Ǧamāʾaẗ). This confluence of spiritual streams has even influenced the modern Western world.
    • As I see it, the devotional center, and flowering, of the Golden Age of ⫰Islām can be found in the Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement. It appeared through the grace and blessings of the dear Prophet Muḥammad. Historically, the movement is dated entirely within the ⫰Islāmic Dispensation. (See the glossary entries, ʾal-Taṣawwuf and ʾal-⫯Andalus.) See also the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿAṣru ʾal-Ḏahabiyy ʾal-⫯Islāmiyy.
    • In a sense, a modern comparison can be made with the Pentecostal movement. Based on my own doctoral research, American Pentecostalism, while not an interfaith movement, has been dominated by individuals who are significantly poorer than the general population. Segments of both spiritual “revival” movements have also emphasized ecstatic experience. (See the glossary entry, Pentecostalism.)

Perhaps their whitish color refers to a “chalice of pure light” (Baháʾuʾlláh, Gleanings from the Writings of Baháʾuʾlláh. Page 280.) emanating from Each of Them.
    • However, in my opinion, these pale-skinned Creatures, as Troops within the Hosts of the Supreme Concourse (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mal⫯a ʾal-⫯Aʿlaỳ), are Archangels and not, as commonly defined, extraterrestrials. From Dispensation to Dispensation, the Archangels, divinely blessed and sanctified Beings, both accompany and support (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Yusʿif and ʾal-Muʿallim) Each of the Prophets of God. According to God’s Will, Archangels may have visited earthly regions outside the geographical scope of the Prophets and Their followers.

Meso (Ancient Greek, Μεσο) is in the midst. Potámia (Ancient Greek, Ποτάμια) is rivers. See also the glossary entry, South Asia.
  697. ʾal-Bilād ʾal-Yūnān (الْبِلَاد الْيُونَان), the country or land of Greece, is Greece.
  698. Biləʿām hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, בִּלְעָם הָמַלְאָךְ), Bilʿām ʾal-Malāk (بِلْعَام الْمَلَاك), Bilʿām Farištah (Persian, بِلْعَام فَرِشْتَه, or ʾUrdū, بِلْعَام فَرِشْتَہ),), or Ángelos Balaàm (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, Βαλαὰμ), Unstable (tentative translation from the Hebrew) the Angel, is Balaam the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). The Hebrew-language version is unaltered from the original.

With two cognates, Balbala ʾal-Malāk (بَلْبَلَ الْمَلَاك), “Confound” (or Confuse) the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Balbḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Βαλβήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  700. ʾal-Billawr ʾal-ṣaẖriyy (البِلَّوْر الصَخْرِيّ), the crystal of the rock is quartz (rock crystal). It can also be referred to by the loanword, ʾal-kwārtz (الكْوَارْتز).

  702. ʾal-Binā ʾal-dawlaẗ (البِنَاء الدَوْلَة), the building of the nation, is nation-building. “Nation-building has come to an end.” (Shoghi Effendi, The World Order of Bahá’u’lláh. Page 202.) Instead, we see nations falling and breaking apart.
  703. ʾal-Binā⫯iyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ (البِنائِيَّة الاجْتِمَاعِيَّة) is social constructionism (literally, constructionism social). It is a common idealist perspective (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Miṯāliyyaẗ and ʾal-Miṯāliyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ) used in sociology. The Arabic term can also be translated as social constructivism. In sociology, the opposite of social constructionism is essentialism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Māhiyāniyyaẗ). For instance, human religions are social constructions. Claiming that radical ⫰Islāmism is not an example of ⫰Islām presents an essentialist approach to religion. The most reasonable (and respectful) approach is to refer to people as they refer to themselves.
    • “I ... draw upon a dispute in social constructionism between whether it is to be interpreted as idealist or realist. Social constructionism seems more obviously to be a form of idealism and I shall pursue the suggestion that it is a form of linguistic idealism ....” (Julian C. Hughes, Thinking through Dementia. New York: Oxford University Press. 2011. Page 170.)
    • “Social constructivism has roots in [Immanuel] Kant’s idealism, which claims that we cannot know things in themselves and that knowledge of the world is possible only by imposing pre-given categories of thought on otherwise inchoate experience. But where Kant believed that the categories with which we interpret and thus construct the world are given a priori, contemporary constructivists believe that the relevant concepts and associated practices vary from one group or historical period to another. Since there are no independent standards for evaluating conceptual schemes, social constructivism leads naturally to relativism.” (Philip Gasper, “Social constructivism also called social constructionism.” The Cambridge Dictionary of Philosophy. Second edition. Robert Audi, general editor. New York: Cambridge University Press. 1999. Kindle edition.)

  704. ʾal-Binā⫯iyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ ʾal-wāqiʿiyyaẗ (البِنائِيَّة الاجْتِمَاعِيَّة الْوَاقِعِيَّة), constructionism social realist (or realism), is realist social constructionism. This critical-realist perspective was developed by Dave Elder-Vass (دَاوُد الشَيْخ ـ فَاسّ, Dāwud ʾal-Šayẖ-Fāss).
  705. ʾal-Binā⫯iyyaẗ ʾal-naqdiyyaẗ (البِنائِيَّة النَقْدِيَّة), constructivism critical or constructionism critical, is critical constructivism or critical constructionism. In 1999, American philosopher Andrew Feenberg (أَنْدرُو فِينْبِيرغ, ⫯Andrū Fīnbīrġ), born in 1943, first used the term, critical constructivism. The designation was, in 2002, adopted by sociologist Maria Bakardjieva (مَارِيَا بَاكَارْدْجِيَافَا, Māriyā Bākārdǧiyāfā). Critical constructionism was developed by Robert Heiner (رُوْبِرْت هَايْنِر, Rūbirt Hāynir). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Binā⫯iyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ.

  710. Bi-ʾal-nisbaẗ (بِالنِسْبَة), by (or with) the link (or the relation), is vis-à-vis.
  711. ʾal-Bint (الْبِنْت), with ʾal-banāt (الْبَنَات) as the plural form, is the Arabic word for daughter (or for girl). The Hebrew term for daughter is hā-bạṯ (הָבַּת). hā-Bẹnōṯ (הָבֶּנוֹת) is Hebrew for “daughters.”
  712. ʾal-Birr (البِرّ) is charity or piety.

  715. ʾal-Bišārāt or al-Bishárát (ﺍﻟﺒﺸﺎﺭﺍﺕ‎ or, using a different Unicode block, البشارات) are Glad-Tidings, a blessed Tablet revealed by Bahá’u’lláh. Each section of the Tablet is designated as a Bišhāraẗ (بشارة), a Glad-Tiding. In my opinion, this Tablet announces the Gospel (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Inǧīl), the Good News or Glad-Tidings, for the Bahá’í Cycle.
  716. Bi-ʾal-taḥfīzi ʾal-ḏātiyy (بِالتَحْفيزِ الذَاتِيّ), stimulation self, is Autistic stimming (self-stimulation). Ba (ب) is “with,” “through,” or “of.” In psychiatry, stimming is referred to as motor stereotypy. My own Arabic-language translation of motor stereotypy is ʾal-ratābaẗ ʾal-ḥarakaẗ (الرَتَابَة الحَرَكَة), stereotypy or monotony of movement. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Ttawaḥḥud.
  717. Bi-ʾal-taqāṭuʿ (بِالتَقَاطُع) is intersectionality (literally, through or with the intersection). ʾal-Taqāṭuʿ (التَقَاطُع) is the intersection (alternatively, the cross or the crossing).
    • Intersectionality is a neo-Marxist, African American feminist (“womanist”) theory of power or domination. The theory developed out of a critique of radical feminism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Niswiyyaẗ ʾal-rādīkāliyyaẗ). Historically, the term was first used by Kimberlé Williams Crenshaw (كِيمْبِرْلِيّ وِيلْيَامْز كرِينْشَاو, Kīmbirliyy Wīlyāmz Krīnšāw), born in 1959 A.D.
    • I have integrated intersectional theory into my eclectic version of critical realism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ ʾal-naqdiyyaẗ), Dialectical metaRealism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ǧadaliyyaẗ ʾal-ttilwiyyaẗ ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ). Specifically, I apply the theory to a critical examination of Roy Bhaskar’s concept, demireality (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Niṣf ʾal-wāqiʿ and ʾal-Šiqāq). Both intersectionality and demireality present sophisticated approaches to the dialectic (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Dayāliktīk and ʾal-Ǧadaliyyaẗ).

Chiropractic can also be referred to as ʾal-muʿālaǧaẗ al-yadawiyyaẗ (المُعَالَجَة اليَدَوِيَّة), treatment manual. The English-language words, chiropractic and chiropractor, combine the Greek cheír (χείρ) and the Latin chīro, for “hand,” with the Greek praktikós (πρακτικός), for “practical.” See also the glossary entry, ʾal-H̱allaʿa ʾal-ǧuziyy.
  719. Bi-ʾal-ṭarīq ʾal-faṣṣ ʾal-ṣudġiyy (بِالطَرِيق الفَصّ الصُدْغِيّ), in the way of the lobe transtemporal, is the path of the temporal lobe (in neuroscience). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿIlmu ʾal-⫯aʿṣāb.
  720. Bi-ʾal-tawāṣala ʾal-rūḥiyy (بِالتَوَاصَلَ الرُوحِيّ), in communion spiritual, is spiritual communion. “... the core of religious faith is that mystical feeling which unites man with God. This state of spiritual communion can be brought about and maintained by means of meditation and prayer.” (From a letter, dated December 8, 1935, written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual Bahá’í, Lights of Guidance. Number 1704.)
  721. Bītirim ʾAliksandrūfītš Sūrūkīn (بِيتِرِم الِكْسَنْدْرُوفِيتْش سُورُوكِين) or Pītirīm ʾÂliksāndrūvīč Sūrūkīn (Persian, ʾUrdū, Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, and Kurdish, پِیتِرِیم آلِکْسَانْدْرُووِیچ سُورُوكِين) is Pitirim Alexandrovich Sorokin (Russian Cyrillic, Питири́м Алекса́ндрович Соро́кин, Pitirím Aleksándrovič Sorókin), 1889-1968 A.D.

The name, “Viracocha” is taken from the Quechuan language of the Incas, spoken in the South American Andes, which is written in the Roman alphabet.
  728. Ḇiyrəḡə′yinəyāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, בִירְגְ׳יִנְיָה הָמַלְאָךְ), Fīrǧīnyā ʾal-Malāk (فِرْجِينْيَا الْمَلَاك), Vīrǧīnyā Farištah (Persian, وِیرْجِینِْیَا فَرِشْتَه), Virgīnyā Farištah (ʾUrdū, وِرْجِینْیَا فَرِشْتَہ), or Ángelos Birginía (Greek, Ἄγγελος Βιργινία), Virgin or Maiden (Latin) the Angel, is Virginia (from the Latin, virgō) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām).

It is a neo-Marxian perspective (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mārksiyyaẗu ʾal-ǧadīdaẗ). Canadian sociologist Dorothy Edith Smith (دُورُوثِيّ إِيْدِيث سْمِث, Dūrūṯiyy ⫯Idīṯ Smīṯ), born in 1926, is one of the leading figures in critical pragmatism.

In My vision I saw the head of the Imám Ḥusayn, the Siyyidu’sh-Shuhada’, which was hanging upon a tree. Drops of blood dripped profusely from His lacerated throat. With feelings of unsurpassed delight, I approached that tree and, stretching forth My hands, gathered a few drops of that sacred blood, and drank them devoutly. When I awoke, I felt that the Spirit of God had permeated and taken possession of My soul.

His name translates, from the Hebrew, as “my divine Judge” or “my Judge is God.” Dān (Hebrew, דָּנ), judge, is a cognate with the Arabic-language word, dīn (see the glossary entry, ʾad-Dīn).

My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. Dānu (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, दानु) is dewdrop.
  825.

The most important holy book of Dàojiào is the Dàodéjīng or Tao Te Ching (Traditional Chinese, 道德經, or Simplified Chinese, 道德经), the Classic Text on the Way to Virtue.

In the UK, the associate’s degree is somewhat comparable to the British “foundation degree” (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Daraǧaẗ ʾal-⫯asās).

This originally Persian term is used for a mausoleum, shrine, tomb, or sepulcher constructed around the burial site or grave of a Ṣūfiyy leader or holy figure. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Mazār. See also the glossary entries, Dargāh-i Bābā Bulhē Šāh, Mawḍiʿ-i Sulṭān Ḥaqq Bāhū, H̱ānaqāh, Qawālī, and ʾal-ʿUrs.

Receiving darśan refers to spiritually witnessing the presence, emanation, outpouring, or effulgence of God or one’s guru (see glossary entry), as a theophany or hierophany (see the glossary entry, Theophany and hierophany). Through darśan, the devotee draws close to the object of her or his devotion.

Charles Darwin (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ ʾal-Dārwīn) rejected it. Herbert Spencer (see the glossary entry, Hirbirt Sbinsir) was not much of a social Darwinist either. The term might, however, be applied to certain segments of the contemporary right wing (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Yamīniyyaẗ) in the United States and elsewhere.
  846. ʾal-Darwīš (الدَرْوِيش‎), or ʾal-darāwīš (التَنْوِير‎) in the plural form, is derived, through Turkish, from the Persian and ʾUrdū (i.e., Indo-European) darvīš (دَرْوِیش), the needy one or the mendicant. The Modern Turkish spelling is derviş with dervişler as the Turkish plural form. The prohibition against begging and giving to beggars appears to refer, historically, to this class of individuals (similar to monks or friars who have taken vows of poverty), not to the poor people to whom ʽAbdu’l-Bahá gave coins during His journeys through the West. The Hiṃdī version of the word is daravēśa (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, दरवेश). For rough Hindu approximations, see the glossary entries, Sādhu and sādhvī.

    • ʾal-Muṣāb bi-ʾal-ṣarʿ (المُصَابُ بالصَرْع) is the victim of epilepsy (the epileptic). ʾal-Muṣābūn bi-ʾal-ṣarʿ (المُصَابُون بالصَرْع) is the victims in epilepsy (the epileptics).

  849. Daśa Avatārāḥ (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, दश अवताराः) is “the system of ten Avatars.” Daśa (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, दश) is ten (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, १०, 10).
    • For Bahá’ís, Bahá’u’lláh (see the glossary entry, Bahāˁ ʾUllꞌah) is the tenth or Kalki (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, कल्कि) Avatar. (The etymology of “Kalki” is uncertain.)
    • “To Him [Bahá’u’lláh] the Bhagavad-Gita of the Hindus had referred as the ‘Most Great Spirit,’ the ‘Tenth Avatar,’ the ‘Immaculate Manifestation of Krishna.’” (Shoghi Effendi, God Passes By. Page 95.)
    • “Kalki, radiant as the Sun, will gallop through the world with his sword glittering in his hand. He will end this present cycle of existence, purifying the universe so that creation can begin anew.” (Kenneth McLeish, Bloomsbury Dictionary of Myth. “Kalki.” London, UK: Bloomsbury Publishing. 1996. Credo Reference.)

  851. ʾal-Ḏākir (الذَاكِر) is the practitioner of the Ṣūfiyy remembrance of God (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḏikr). It is pronounced, approximately, like äl-ză-kĭr or äl-dă-kĭr (given the many regional variations).
  852. ʾal-Ḏāt (الذَات), or ʾal-ḏawāt (الذَوَات) in the plural form, is essence, personal self, or being. The term can also be used for isism, namely, a realistic picture of that which exists. Isism can be contrasted with shouldism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ẓann). Both concepts were formulated by the psychiatrist Frederick “Fritz” Salomon Perls (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿIlāǧ ʾal-Ǧišṭālt). To my understanding, the unifying essence (or unity) of each thing, in this world, is an Guardian Angel. Essences are Beings, not idealizations (Platonic ideal forms).
  853. Dạṭəṭərẹyʾāh-ʾĀwəwāṭʾạr (or Dạṭəṭərẹyʾāh-ʾĀvəvāṭʾạr) hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, דַּטְטְרֶיאָה־אָוְוָטְאַר הָמַלְאָךְ), Dāttātrayā-⫯Afātār ʾal-Malāk (دَاتَّاتْرَيَا ـ أَفَاتَارَ الْمَلَاك), or Ángelos Dattatreiach Ábatar (Greek, Ἄγγελος Δαττατρειαχ Άβαταρ), Descent of That which is Given by the Prosperous One (Sanskrit) the Angel, is Dattatreya Avatar the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām).

The Pāli equivalent is dhamma (Dēvanāgarī Pāli/Sanskrit script, धम्म) or dhammā (Dēvanāgarī Pāli/Sanskrit script, धम्आ) as the plural. The ʾUrdū and Šāh Mukhī Punjabi spelling of dharma is dharma (دھَرمَ). Two Arabic versions are ʾal-daʿama (الدعم) and ʾal-daʿāmah (الدعامة).
    • In this glossary, I have cautiously translated dharma as “natural law.” The word itself is derived from dhārayati (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, धारयति), Sanskrit for “he holds.” Thus, dharma may be more precisely translated as the support, foundational principle, or upholding of the universe. The modern Persian descendent of the proto-Indo-European root for dharma, dher-, is the suffix, -dār (دار), for owning, having, or holding. The English-language word, darn (in the sense of sewing), is also related.
    • As many Hindus, Sikhs (see the glossary entry, Sikhī), Jains, Buddhists, and others regard faith as dharma, Muslims commonly view faith as “dīn.” Compare dharma with the glossary entry, ʾad-Dīn.
    See also the glossary entries, Dharmacakra, Dhārmika Āsthāoṃ, and ʾal-Qānūn ʾal-ṭabīʿiyy.
  979. Dharmacakra (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, धर्मचक्र) is the wheel (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, चक्र, cakra or chakra) of dharma (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, धर्म, dharma) in Buddhism. Dharmacakra is symbolized by a Unicode glyph, . See also the glossary entries, Buddha Dharma, Cakra, and Dharma.
  980. Dhārmika (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, धार्मिक, or Bengali, ধার্মিক) is “dharmic” or, informally in modern South Asia, religious, righteous, godly, pious, or virtuous. See also the glossary entries, Dharma and Dhārmika Āsthāoṃ.
  981. Dhārmika Āsthāoṃ (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, धार्मिक आस्थाओं) are Dharmic Faiths in Hiṃdī. These indigenous South Asian religions, which emphasize the proper understanding of nature, include: Hinduism (see the glossary entry, Sanātana Dharma), Buddhism (see the glossary entry, Buddha Dharma), Sikhism (see the glossary entry, Sikhī), Jainism (see the glossary entry, Jainā Dharma), Ēka Śaraṇa Dharma (see glossary entry), Guruṅa Dharma (see glossary entry), Ayyavaḻa (see glossary entry), and Dāsa Dharama and Saca Khaḍa Nānaka Dharama (see glossary entry). The Dharmic (or South Asian) Faiths are sometimes, although imprecisely, contrasted with the Near Eastern Faiths, such as: Judaism, Zoroastrianism, Christianity, Mandæanism, ⫰Islām, the Bábí Faith, and the Bahá’í Faith. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-⫯Adyān ʾal-dārmā, Dharma, and Dhārmika.
  982. ʾal-Diʿāmaẗ (الدِعَامَة), with ʾal-diʿāmāt (الدِعَامَات) as the plural form, is the pillar, the stanchion, the support, the prop, or the plank.

  984. ʾal-Dihlīz (الدهليز) is the threshold, the gateway, the hallway, or the vestibule. This term is an Arabized version of the Persian word, dahlīz (دهليز), with a similar translation.
  985. ʾal-Ḏikr (الذِكْرْ), approximately pronounced like äl-zĭ-kər, is remembrance, commemoration, recollection, invocation, mention (or “male”). The plural form is ʾal-⫯aḏkār (الأذْكارْ). There are numerous dialectical variations, but the word is approximately pronounced like äl-äz-kăr. This term can refer, in a general sense, to remembering God under all circumstances. However, in devotional meditation, the word usually describes the repetition of specific sacred words or phrases. “Remembrance” resembles, in Hinduism, the discipline of nāḍa yōga (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, नाद योग), which is Sanskrit for union through sound.
  986. ʾal-Ḏikr ʾal-ǧaliyy (الذِكْرْ الجَلِيّ), the clear (or obvious) remembrance, or ʾal-ḏikr ʾal-lisān (الذِكْرْ اللِسَان), the remembrance with the tongue, is spoken ḏikr. In some schools of Hinduism, this practice is called vācika japa (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, वाचिक जप), which is Sanskrit for loud muttering.
  987. ʾal-Ḏikr ʾal-ẖafiyy (الذِكْرْ الخَفِيّ), the concealed (alternatively, hidden, secret, or invisible) remembrance, is silent ḏikr. It is especially common in some of the Naqšbandī (see glossary entry) Ṣūfiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣūfiyy) orders. An alternate term is ʾal-ḏikr ʾal-qalbiyy (الذِكْرْ القَلْبِيّ), the remembrance of the heart. The Hindu term is mānasa japa (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, मानस जप), which is Sanskrit for mental muttering. This form of ḏikr is the one which is used in Heartfulness Inquiry. However, in some meditative systems, including the non-Ṣūfiyy Watchful Remembrance , this ḏikr can be whispered. Word repetition, while whispering or with only the lips moving, is called, by certain Hindu schools, upāṃśuḥ japa (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, उपांशुः जप), which is Sanskrit for soft muttering. See also the glossary entry, Japa.
  988. Ḍilaʿ (ʾUrdū and Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, ضِلع, or more commonly in Persian, ضلع) is, in various forms, a common designation in some South and West Asian languages for a (political) district. Corresponding words in other South Asian languages are jillā (Telugu, జిల్లా, Gujarātī, જિલ્લા, Dēvanāgarī Nepālī/Sanskrit script, जिल्ला, Tamiḻ, ஜில்லா, or Malayaḷaṃ, ജില്ലാ) and, in Hiṃdī, either jilā (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, जिला) or jilē (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, जिले). Zil⫯hā (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਜ਼ਿਲ੍ਹਾ) is the Guramukhī Punjabi convention. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Kasraẗ, South Asia, and West Asia.

  991. ʾal-Ḏimmī (الذمي), the protected (obligated) one, referred to the progressive ⫰Islāmic policy of religious human rights toward Jews, Christians, and Sabians (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣābi⫯ūn). ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-ḏimmah (الأَهْل الذمة) is the people of protection or obligation (individuals entitled to a status of ʾal-ḏimmī).
  992. ʾal-Dimāġūǧiyyaẗ (الدِيمَاغُوجِيَّة) is the Indo-European loanword for demagoguery or demagogic. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Ġawġā⫯iyyaẗ.
  993. ʾal-Dīmuqrāṭiyyaẗ (الدِيمُقرَاطِيَّة), with ʾal-Dīmuqrāṭiyy (الدِيمُقرَاطِيّ) as the possessive or an appurtenance (“democratic”), is democracy (an obvious cognate). The Ancient Greek dēmokratía (δημοκρατία) is derived from dē̂mos (Ancient Greek, δῆμος), “people,” and kratía (Ancient Greek, κρατία), “strength or power.” Hence, “power to the people” has become a common democratic adage. The Persian form is dimūkrāsī (دموکراسی). The ʾUrdū convention is ḋīmūkrīsī (ڈیموکریسی). See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Dīmuqrāṭiyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ, ʾal-Dīmuqrāṭiyyaẗ ʾal-Masīḥiyyaẗ, ʾal-Dīmuqrāṭiyyaẗ ʾal-rādīkāliyyaẗ, and ʾal-Dīmuqrāṭiyyaẗ ʾal-tawāfuqiyyaẗ.

It broke with democratic socialism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʾIštirākiyyaẗ ʾal-dīmuqrāṭiyyaẗ) in the twentieth century. The roughly corresponding term in the United States is progressivism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Taqaddumiyyaẗ). Both social democracy and progressivism belong to the middle left (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Yasār ʾal-wasaṭ). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Dīmuqrāṭiyyaẗ.

  998. ʾad-Dīn, ʾal-Dīn (الدين‎), or ʾal-ddīnu (الدّيْنُ), with ʾal-⫯adiyān (الأديان) in the plural form, is, while short, a complex Arabic term. It is frequently translated as “way of life,” “faith,” or “religion.” However, dīn is often used in the sense of (divine) judgment, justice, or law. Therefore, I might, in some cases, opt to translate the word as “authority,” “authorization,” or “judgment” (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Yawmu ʾal-Ddīni). ʾad-Dīn could, in that case, be rendered as the authority (to judge) which belongs to a particular individual or religion. Plural forms are ʾal-ʾadwān (الاديان) and ʾal-diyāna (الديانات). Compare with the similarly spelled glossary entry, ʾal-Dayn.
  999. ʾad-Dīn ʾAllꞌah (الدين‎ الله), “the Judgment of God,” is the Religion of God. See also the glossary entries, ʾad-Dīn and Dīn-i ʾIlahī.

It syncretized various faiths, including ⫰Islām and Hinduism. Dīn-i ʾIlahī (ʾUrdūized Arabic, دینِ اِلَهِی), translated as the Religion of God, is also the name of a branch of ʾal-Taṣawwuf (see glossary entry) founded by the twentieth-century Pākistānī Ṣūfiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣūfiyy) leader Ḥaḍrat Siyyidnā Riyāḍ ʾAḥmad Sarkār Guhar Šāhī (see glossary entry).

  1044. ʾal-Dunyā (الدُنْيا), “the lower” or “the nether,” is the proximate (or near) world, the netherworld, the world of dust, or “this world.” In Modern Standard Arabic, ʾal-dunyā is the universe. This world is the shell of the World of Dreams (the Archangelic world). However, the hereafter, not this world, is our world. Living in this world, provided one ultimately learns that it does not matter (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Fanā), is a bounty, but it is not necessary. Compare with the glossary entries, ʾal-ʾAẖirata and ʾal-Dunyā ʾal-Būhīmiyīn.

My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. Durgā (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, दुर्गा) is invincible or inaccessible.

    • These terms refer to a Hindu theological compromise originated by Śrī Nimbārkācārya (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, श्री निम्बार्काचार्य) around the twelfth or thirteenth century A.D.
    • In my opinion, Dvaitādvaita and Acintyabhedaābheda (see the glossary entry, Səʾạṣi′yāh-Məʾạṭāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə) are the two most widespread Hindu philosophies which are closest to the late Indian-English philosopher Roy Bhaskar’s philosophy of metaReality (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-fawqiyyaẗ ʾal-Wāqiʿ).

The word is based on the Semitic root, ʿdn (in Hebrew, עדן, or in Arabic, عدن), for abundant, lush, or fruitful. ʾal-ʿAdn (العَدْن) is the Arabic form. ʾAydin (ایڈن) is the ʾUrdū style. The Hiṃdī spelling is Īḍana (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, ईडन). Aden is the Modern Turkish convention. See the glossary entry, hā-Gạn hā-ʿĒdẹn.

Kêkôi Xôrnô Dhôrmô is another transliteration of the name of the religion, which I made using the Asamese Romanizing system of the Library of Congress and the American Library Association.
    • The Assamese or Sanskrit Ēka or the Assamese Kêkôi (Assamese, এক শৰণ, or Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, एक) is single, solitary, sole, only one, one and only, only, alone, or, literally, the numerical entity of one (1). The Assamese or Sanskrit Śaraṇa or the Assamese Xôrnô (Assamese, শৰণ, or Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, शरण) is refuge, shelter, protection, asylum, or rest.

  1063. Ekklēsía or ecclesia (Greek, ἐκκλησία) is assembly, congregation, or, literally, calling out. It is the word usually translated as “church” in English-language Christian Bibles. In the sociology of religion and, more broadly, in religious studies, “ecclesia” is sometimes used for a state or an “official” religion. This usage originated, in a Christian context, with the German Protestant theologian, Ernst Troeltsch (1865-1923). The definition is, in my view, problematic for at least two reasons: First, most churches, as self-defined, have no status, in any country, as a state religion. Second, the term is semantically awkward when referring to non-Christian religions. For my own religious organizational typology, see this page.
  1064. ʾĒl-ʿẠḏəriyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אֵל־עַדְרִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) My Help is ʾĔlōhiym the Angel, is El-Adriel (or El-Adrel) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). ʾAllꞌah Musāʿadatī Hū ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (الله ـ مُسَاعَدَتِي ـ هُو ـ الله الْمَلَاك), God-My-Support (or Assistance)-He is-God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation.

An alternate version is ʾĒyn Sōp̄ ʾŌr or Ain Soph Aur (Hebrew, אֵין סוֹף אוֹר), without end light (i.e., Limitless Light or Light without End). They are beautiful Names of God.
    • ʾĒyn Sōp̄, as a Kabbalistic term for the preexistent or premanifested God, may be a similar concept to some current interpretations of the word, “metaphysics” (see glossary entry).
    • ʾĒyn (Hebrew, אֵין), “no” or “not,” should not be confused with the Hebrew letter (and word), ʿạyin (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿAyn).

    • In my opinion, the virtues of the spirit of faith (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Rūḥ ʾal-⫯iymān), and of other degrees of spirit (attributes), are not abstractions. The messengers, carriers, or confirmations of these virtues are the innately pure, receptive, and empathetic Archangels (i.e., made “of snow and of fire”) of the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin), i.e., emotional Beings. I can feel them. Practically, that fiery snow might be the plasma-like substance of the Orbs (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Falak) or Tall-White Angels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Bīḍaẗ ʾal-Qāmaẗ ⫯aw ʾal-Šamāliyyaẗ ⫯aw ʾal-ʿAriyān). Comparably, the Maiden (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥūriyyaẗ) was the confirmation of the Attributes manifested in Bahá’u’lláh.
    • “But for the burning of their souls and the sighing of their hearts [that yearn after God], they would be drowned in the midst of their tears, and but for the flood of their tears they would be burnt up by the fire of their hearts and the heat of their souls. Methinks, they are like the angels which Thou hast created of snow and of fire.” (Prayers and Meditations by Bahá’u’lláh. Pages 157-158.)
    • “... angels have something in common with both men and demons. They have the shape of man, but consist half of fire and half of water (TJ, RH 2; PdRK, ed. Mandelbaum, 6; Song R. 3:11, 15).

  1124. ʾal-Falak (الفَلَك), with ʾal-⫯aflāk (الأفْلاك) in the plural form, is the orb (or the orbit). I use this term to refer to various, possibly angelic, spheres, often luminous, which have been reported by many people, including by me. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Ǧinniyyaẗ.

  1126. ʾal-Falsafaẗ (الفَلْسَفَة) and ʾal-filsafaẗ (الفِلْسَفَة) are variant spellings of the Arabic cognate for philosophy. However, ʾal-falsafaẗ (الفَلْسَفَة) is the more common rendering. The ʾUrdū and Persian forms, which are spelled somewhat differently from the Arabic in the original, are falsafah or filsafah (ʾUrdū, فلسفہ, and Persian, فلسفه). The Hiṃdī form is falasafā (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, फ़लसफ़ा). The Guramukhī Punjabi spelling is phalasaphā (ਫਲਸਫਾ). The Latin transcription is philosophia. The original Ancient Greek convention is philosophia (φιλοσοφια) or philosophía (φιλοσοφία). Phílos (Ancient Greek, Φίλος) is loved one or beloved. Sophia (Ancient Greek, Σοφια) is wisdom.

  1129. ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Ṯāliṯ (الفَلْسَفَة العَالَم الثَالِث), the philosophy of the world third, is my Arabic-language translation of the (emancipatory) philosophy of Third Worldism. ʾal-Mu⫯ayyid min ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Ṯāliṯ (المُؤَيِّد مِنْ العَالَم الثَالِث), the supporter from (or of) the world first, is my Arabic-language translation of the Third Worldist.
  1130. ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-ʿamaliyyaẗ (الفَلْسَفَة العَمَلِيَّة), the philosophy of process, is process philosophy. Process philosophy, as a type of panexperientialism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-taǧrībiyyaẗ ʾal-šāmal), was originally developed by Alfred North Whitehead (أَلفْرِد نُورْث وَايْتْهِد, ⫯Alfrid Nūrṯ Wāythid), 1861-1947. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-⫯Alahiyyāt ʾal-ʿamaliyyaẗ and ʾal-ʿAmaliyyaẗ ʾal-⫯iymān bi-ʾAllꞌah.

One of the major figures associated with this philosophy is Félix Guattari (فَيْلِيكْس غْوَاتَارِيّ, Faylīks Ġwātāriyy).
  1133. ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-fawqiyyaẗ ʾal-Wāqiʿ (الفَلْسَفَة الفَوْقِيّة الوَاقِع), the philosophy of the top (alternatively, supreme, meta, overlying, or super) of reality, is the philosophy of metaReality. ʾal-Fawqiyyaẗ ʾal-Wāqiʿ (الفَوْقِيّة الوَاقِع), the top (alternatively, supreme, meta, overlying, or super) of reality, is metaReality. This philosophy has been developed by the late Indian-English philosopher Roy Bhaskar (see the glossary entry, Rāma Rôya Bhāskara).
    • I also translated the philosophy of metareality as ʾal-falsafaẗ mā warāˁa ʾal-Wāqiʿ (الفَلْسَفَة مَا وَرَاءَ الوَاقِع). This portmanteau or compound term is based upon mā warāˁa ʾal-ṭabīʿah (مَا وَرَاءَ الطَبِيعَة), a term for metaphysics or, literally, that (alternatively, what) which is beyond nature. Mā warāˁa (مَا وَرَاءَ) is beyond (“meta”). ʾal-Ṭabīʿah (الطَبِيعَة) is nature. ʾal-Wāqiʿ (الوَاقِع) is reality.
    • Through the philosophy of metaReality, the Marxian dialectic (contradiction or dualism) is completed in the cosmic envelope (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ġilāf ʾal-dunyawiyy).
    Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Fawqiyyaẗ ʾal-naẓariyyaẗ. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Falsafa, metaphysics, and ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ ʾal-naqdiyyaẗ.

    • ʾal-Faylasūf ʾal-ẖālid (الفَيْلَسُوف الخَالِد), philosopher perennial (alternatively, timeless or immortal), is my own Arabic-language translation of “perennial philosopher” or “perennialist.” ʾal-Falāsifaẗ ʾal-ẖālidaẗ (الفَلَاسِفَة الخَالِدَة), philosophers perennial (alternatively, timeless or immortal), is my Arabic-language translated plural form.
    • The perennial philosophy refers to various (largely) Neoplatonic approaches to the unity of religions.
    • A specifically Neo-Thomist (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Tūmā⫯iyyaẗ) interpretation of the perennial philosophy was developed, through the Second Vatican Council, by the Roman Catholic Church.
    Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Madrasaẗ ʾal-falsafiyyaẗ ʾal-maḏhabiyyaẗ ʾal-taqlīdiyyaẗ. Contrast with the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥikmaẗ ʾal-ʾilāhiyaẗ. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Falsafaẗ, ʾal-⫯Iflāṭūniyaẗ ʾal-muḥdaṯaẗ, and ʾal-Qiddīsi Tūmā ʾal-ʾAkwīniyy.
  1135. ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-ḥatmiyyaẗ (الفَلْسَفَة الحَتْمِيَّة), the philosophy of inevitability, is my Arabic-language translation of inevitablism or inevitabilism (in Marxism).
  1136. ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-Hindiyyaẗ (الفَلْسَفَة الهِنْدِيَّة), the philosophy of Hinduism, is Hindu philosophy. ʾal-Hindiyy (الهِنْدِيّ) is the Hindu.

I do not think it is possible for people, in the capitalist world system, to establish world socialism. The system itself must first collapse from its own internal contradictions.

  1147. ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-nafs ʾal-šāmilaẗ (الفَلْسَفَة النَفْس الشامِلَة) is the philosophy of soul pan, comprehensive or universal. I have coined this term for panpsychism. A more common term for panpsychism, however, is ʾal-waḥdāniyyaẗ ʾal-nafs (الوحدَانيَّة النفس), the oneness of self (or, roughly, universal mind or universal soul). Either way, the traditional Arabic translation of the Greek word, psychḗ (ψυχή), soul (alternatively, mind or self), is ʾal-nafs. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Nafs.

Emergentism can also be referred to as ʾal-ʾinbiṯāqiyyaẗ (الاِنْبِثَاقِيَّة), emergence, emanation, or effusion. Contrast with the glossary entry, ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-tarẖīmaẗ.

    • The objective idealist concept of panexperientialism, which is a variation of the philosophy of panpsychism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-nafs ʾal-šāmilaẗ), relates to process philosophy and to Charles Hartshorne’s (تْشارْلْز هارْتْسْهورْن, Tšārlz Hārtshūrn) process theology (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Alahiyyāt ʾal-ʿamaliyyaẗ).
    • “Charles Hartshorne’s [1897-2000] arguments for the position that he has deemed ‘psychicalism’ or ‘objective idealism,’ or what [George W.] Shields calls ‘physicalist panexperientialism (PPE),’ have great relevance to contemporary debates on the mind-body problem, debates which are at the very center of contemporary analytic metaphysics and philosophical commentary on cognitive and neuroscience. If Hartshorne’s arguments are correct, the perspective of PPE offers a genuine, much needed advance forward in the currently moribund mind-body debates.” (George W.

    • ʾal-Faqīr, translates, literally, as pauper or poor one. The word ʾal-faqīr comes from ʾal-faqr (الفقر), poverty. ʾal-Faqīr is sometimes interpreted as ʾal-faqīr ⫯iliỳ ʾAllꞌah (الفَقِير إِلَى الله), the poor in (more precisely, within, for, or at) God.
    • Faqīr (فَقِیر‎) is the spelling in Persian, ʾUrdū, and Šāh Mukhī Punjabi. The Hiṃdī and Telugu convention is faqīra (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script is फ़क़ीर, and Telugu, ఫకీర).

In this world, the fruit of the Valley of Wonderment (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥayraẗ), the soul learns that this world is the world of dust, the outer shell of the Archangelic world, the world of physicality, or absolute nothingness. That is to say, the Archangels are the inner Essences or Unities of this world. Essentially, one becomes, in Buddhist terms, a bodhisattva. As I see it, living in this valley of annhilation is martyrdom (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ššahādaẗ). The inhabitant of this valley dies a martyr’s death (spiritually) and longs to die a martyr’s death (physically).

    • Personally, I am both a communist, which has certain collectivistic anarchist characteristics, and a socialist statist. Whatever revolutionary social forces, collectivities, and individuals result in anarchy, instability, and chaos within the capitalist world system, I support. My peaceful contribution to this revolution is through human rights activism and social critique. The end objective of worldwide chaos (or anarchy) will, I believe, be a global socialist state. Chaos is not a good in itself. It is, however, a necessary phase of the age of transition.

Many of the reported disappearances may be explained by extradimensional phenomena (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ẓẓawāhiru ʾal-⫯abaʿād ʾal-ḍāfiyyaẗ).

She might be a Resident of the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin) and its Archangels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ).

    • Gabriel is, I feel, the central Archangel of the ⫰Islāmic Dispensation. Through this Angel, the dear Prophet Muḥammad (see glossary entry) may, thank God, have entered into contact with the World of Dreams. The Virgin Mary (see the glossary entries, Maryamu al-ʿAḏrāˁ and ʾal-Ssayyidaẗu Maryam) also reportedly interacted with the Angel Gabriel. He was, in my view, the Agent of the Virgin Birth (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mīlādi ʾal-ʿAḏrāˁ) of Jesus Christ.
    • “... in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. And he came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favored, the Lord is with thee. But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this might be. And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favor with God. And behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. And Mary said unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and the power of the Most High shall overshadow thee: wherefore also the holy thing which is begotten shall be called the Son of God.” (Luke 1:26-35. American Standard Version. 1901.)

    • On the morning of March 18, 2015, Princess Grace the Angel came to me, in a dream, as an elegant- and hip-looking (female) president of the United States, with curly orange hair, and, to my surprise, my dear personal friend. I ended up holding hands with her. In my opinion, God’s “grace” is conveyed to us by the Archangels, acting as divine Emissaries, while dreaming. Perhaps we are protected by spiritual “royalty.”
  1416.

It is the liturgical (and Semitic) language, written left to right, which is employed in some Ethiopian religious communities. The language was previously used much more widely. Functionally, Géʿzé can be compared to Latin in the Roman Catholic Church. The modern (also Semitic) language in Ethiopia, which uses an expanded version of the Géʿzé alphabet, is called Amharic (see the glossary entry, ʾEmiréñā).

My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. On January 7ᵗʰ, 2017, Jeffrey came to me, in a dream, and said that the U.S. Republican Party has gone from being anti–Russia to pro–Russia.
  1426. ʾal-Ǧihād bi-ʾal-yad (الجهاد بِالْيَد), the struggle (or striving) by the hand, is the fight against economic and social injustice. Compare with the glossary entry, hā-Tiqqūn hā-ʿōlām. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Muǧāhadah.

    • Although the translation is servant boy or page (with the implication of pederasty), Shoghi Effendi interpreted ʾal-ġilmān as a prohibition, among Bahá’ís, against sexual relations between same-sexed individuals in general. Plainly, the law does not apply to individuals who are not members of the voluntary community of Bahá’ís. Furthermore, the Bahá’í community does not promote anti-Gay legislation.
    • As far as I know, the contemporary constructs of Gay or Lesbian sexual identity (also called sexual orientation and sexual preference) and sexual attraction have not been censured. Obviously, an individual’s self-identification or object of attraction cannot be prohibited. Pseudoscientific reparative or conversion therapy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿIlāǧ ʾal-ttarmīmiyy) is not, to my knowledge, ever advocated.

    • These “evil” angels are, like angelic beings, also messengers, but they refer to the lower nature which whispers in our breasts. The ǧinn (جِنّ) have been popularized in Western folklore as the genies (hidden) in the bottle.
    • “Regarding your question as to the meaning of Jin or Genii referred to in the Qur’án, these are not beings or creatures that are actually living, but are symbolic references to the power of men of evil and may be likened to evil spirits. But the point to bear in mind is that these have no positive existence of any kind.” (From a letter, dated June 26ᵗʰ, 1936, written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual Bahá’í, Lights of Guidance. Number 1667.)

That NSA received a letter from the Universal House of Justice, dated October 27, 1985. According to the House of Justice, Gurū Nānaka was endowed with a “saintly character.” Moreover, he “was inspired to reconcile the religions of Hinduism and Islam, the followers of which religions had been in violent conflict.” Therefore, the House of Justice further explained, Bahá’ís view Gurū Nānaka as a “saint of the highest order.”
    • In my opinion, the Universal House of Justice, in praising Gurū Nānaka, has blessed him. (See the glossary entry, Sikhī.) Taking the statement by the Universal House of Justice as my example, I commonly refer to individuals as “saints,” since I have no authority to designate anyone as a Prophet of God. For information on sainthood, see the glossary entries, Saint and ʾal-Waliyy ʾAllꞌah.

  1553. ʾal-H̱addām (الخَدَّام), or ʾal-ẖuddām (الخُدَّام) in the plural form, is the servant (or eunich). The word is found in the name of the late Hand of the Cause of God Ḏikr ʾAllꞌah H̱addām or “Zikrullah Khadem” (ذِكْرْ الله خَدَّام), “remembrance of God, servant,” 1904-1986. Having met and conversed with him numerous times, I knew him better than any of the Hands of the Cause of God (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Ayādī ʾal-⫯Amr ʾAllꞌah). Once, I rode with him, his wife and Auxiliary Board member Ǧavīduẖt H̱addām or “Javidukht Khadem” (Persianized Arabic, جاویداخت دَّام), my spiritual mother (Elizabeth M. Thomas), and her husband (Dave Thomas) from the Green Acre Bahá’í School in Eliot, Maine, to Long Island, New York. (Ǧavīduẖt is Persian for Ǧavīd’s اخت, uẖt, or sister.)

My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. The etymology is undetermined.
  1557. ʾal-Hadiyyaẗ (الهَدِيَّة), with ʾal-hadāyā (الهَدَايَا) as the plural form, is the gift.
  1558. (ʾal-)Ḥaḍraẗ (حَضْرَة) is his royal, lordly, holy, sacred, blessed, or exalted presence or, in effect, the individual whose presence is sanctified. ʾal-Ḥaḍrāt (الحضرات) is the plural form. The term is similar to (and sometimes translated as) his holiness (e.g., Haq Badshah Sarkar, Bawa Muhaiyaddeen, and Lasani Sarkar) or his eminence (e.g., Hazrat Maulana Muhammad Ibrahim Khushtar). In ʾUrdū and Persian, the word is written as ḥaḍrat (حضرت). Hazarata (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, हज़रत) is the Hiṃdī form. ʾal-Ḥuḍūr (Arabic, الحُضُور), “the presence,” is a cognate. An analogy is provided by the Sanskrit indeclension, sākṣāt (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, साक्षात्), “in the presence of.” See also the glossary entry, Pava Mahayatataṇa.
  1559. ʾal-Ḥaḍraẗ ʾAllꞌah (حضرة الله‎) is the Presence of God. According to Bahá’u’lláh, “Know thou of a truth that the soul, after its separation from the body, will continue to progress until it attaineth the presence of God, in a state and condition which neither the revolution of ages and centuries, nor the changes and chances of this world, can alter. It will endure as long as the Kingdom of God, His sovereignty, His dominion and power will endure.... When the soul attaineth the Presence of God, it will assume the form that best befitteth its immortality and is worthy of its celestial habitation.” (Gleanings from the Writings of Bahá’u’lláh, pages 155 and 157)
  1560. Ḥaḍrat ʿInāyat H̱‎an or Hazrat Inayat Khan (ʾUrdū, حَضرَت عِنَایَت خَان) lived 1882-1927. He was the founder of the popular early twentieth-century movement, Universal Ṣūfism. Ḥaḍrat ʿInāyat H̱‎an came to the West from his native northern India, and he was blessed with meeting ʽAbdu’l-Bahá.
    • Although Ḥaḍrat ʿInāyat H̱‎an also belonged to ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ (see glossary entry), ʾal-Naqšbandiyyaẗ (see the glossary entry, Naqšbandī), and Suḥrawardī (see the glossary entry, ʾAbū ʾal-Naǧib Suḥrawardī) Ṣūfiyy (see glossary entry) orders (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ), he mostly identified with ʾal-Niẓāmiyyaẗ (النِظَامِيّة), a branch of the historically open-minded Čištī (see glossary entry) order. See also the glossary entry, Ḥaḍrat Šayẖ H̱awāǧ Siyyid Muḥammad Niẓām ʾad-Dīn ʾAwliyāˁ
    • Ḥaḍrat ʿInāyat H̱‎an’s Universal Ṣūfism (listen to my radio show MP3 on the subject), which did not require an allegiance to ʾal-Šarīʿaẗ (see glossary entry) of ʾal-⫯Islām (see glossary entry), could, in a sense, be regarded as a continuation, or a revival, of the spirit of the Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement (see glossary entry).
    See this links page on Universal Ṣūfism and its current branches. See also the glossary entries, ʿAlamgiyr Taṣawwuf, Bā Šāhrāh va bī Šāhrāh, and Ḥaḍraẗ Šayẖ H̱awāǧ Siyyid Muḥammad Niẓām ʾad-Dīn ʾAwliyā⫯.
    Ḥaḍrat ʿInāyat H̱‎an
  1561. Ḥaḍraẗ Manṣūr ʾal-Ḥallāǧ (حَضْرَة مَنْصُور الحَلّاج) or, in Persianized Arabic, Ḥaḍrat Manṣūr-i Ḥallāǧ (حَضْرَت مَنْصُورِ حَلَّاج), roughly 858-922 A.D., was an ʾIyrānian Ṣūfiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣūfiyy) mystic and an important early figure in the Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement (see glossary entry). His full name was ⫯Abū ʾal-Muġīṭ Ḥusayn Ḥaḍraẗ Manṣūr ʾal-Ḥallāǧ (ابُو المُغِيط حَسَیْن مَنْصُور الحَلَّاج), but he is commonly known as ʾal-Ḥallāǧ (الحَلَّاج). Etymologically, ʾal-ḥallāġ is the carder, the person who disentangles fibers (such as cotton or wool) in preparation for spinning them (or the cotton-ginner).
    • According to some accounts of ʾal-Ḥallāǧ’ life, he traveled to various places, including India, and eventually incorporated a version of universalist Advaita (see glossary entry) into his belief system. Upon settling in Baghdad (بَغْدَاد, Baġdād), he began to make such apparently bold claims as, “Naught else is to be found under my cloak (alternatively, my mantle or my “jubbah”), save God” (my own translation of: “مَا فِي جُبَّتِي، إِلَّا الله.”, “Mā fī ǧubbatī, ⫯illā ʾAllꞌah.”). After being charged, by his detractors, with committing širk (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Širk) and blasphemy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Taǧdīf), he was imprisoned for nearly a decade and, ultimately, executed.
    • On the other hand, some of ʾal-Ḥallāǧ’s defenders have interpreted his statements as ʾal-fanā⫯ ʾal-nafs ʾal-ʾimmāraẗ (see glossary entry). To them, he never rejected ʾal-Tawḥīd (see glossary entry).
    See also the glossary entry, Mast.
  1562. Ḥaḍraẗ Mawlānā Šāh Faḍl ⫯Aḥmad H̱‎an Ṣāḥib-i Naqšbandī-i Muǧaddidỳ-i Maẓhariỳ (ʾUrdūized Arabic, حضرة مولانا‎ شاہ فضل أحمد خانى صاحِبِ نقشبندىِ مجددىِ مظهرى), who lived approximately 1838-1907, was the reported Naqšbandī (see glossary entry) šayẖ (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Šayẖ) of Rāma Candra (see glossary entry), a Hindu. That Muslim šayẖ was also known by the honorific, Ḥuḍūr (Arabic, حضور, his sanctified presence) Mahārāj (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, महाराज्, great king). Ḥuḍūr Mahārāǧah (حضور مہاراجہ) is the ʾUrdū spelling. He was born in the city of Qāyamagañja (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, क़ायमगंज, Qāyamagañja; or ʾUrdū, قَاِئمَ گَنجَ, Qā⫯ima Ganǧa), Qā⫯im (see glossary entry) Treasure, which is located in the northern Indian state of Uttara Pradeśa (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, उत्तर प्रदेश). See also the glossary entries, ʾal-⫯Aḥmad, ʾal-Faḍl, (ʾal-)Ḥaḍraẗ, ʾal-Muǧaddid, Ganǧ, ʾal-Qā⫯im, ʾal-Šāh, ʾal-Ṣāḥib, and ʾal-Ẓuhūr.
    My “assumption” is that Rāma Candra is on the right in the second photograph.
  1563. Ḥaḍrat Mīrzā Ġulām ʾAḥmad (ʾUrdū and Persian, حضرت مرزا غلام احمد, Ḥaḍrat Mīrzā Ġulām ʾAḥmad; Arabic, حضرة مرزا غلام أحمد, Ḥaḍraẗ Mirzā Ġulām ⫯Aḥmad; Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, हज़रत मिर्जा गुलाम अहमद, Hajarata Mirjā Qulāma Ahamada; or Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਹਜਰਤ ਮਿਰਜਾ ਗੁਲਾਮ ਅਹਿਮਦ, Hajarata Mirajā Gulāma Ahimada) was the founder of ʾAḥmadiyah (see glossary entry), a branch of ʾal-⫯Islām (see glossary entry). He lived 1835-1908 A.D. See also the glossary entry, (ʾal-)Ḥaḍraẗ.

  1564. Ḥaḍrat Šayẖ H̱awāǧ Siyyid Muḥammad Niẓām ʾad-Dīn ʾAwliyāˁ (ʾUrdūized Arabic, حضرت شیخ خواجہ سیّد مُحَمَّد نظام الدین اولیاء) lived 1238-1325 A.D. He was the founder of ʾal-Nniẓāmiyyaẗ (النِّظَامِيّة), regularity, system, order, or ordleriness. ʾal-Nniẓāmiyy (النِّظَاميّ) is the possessive or an appurtenance. This movement, named after him, is a South Asian branch of Čištī (see glossary entry), a Ṣūfiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣūfiyy) order (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ). See also the glossary entry, Ḥaḍrat ʿInāyat H̱‎an.
  1565. Ḥaḍrat Siyyidnā Riyāḍ ʾAḥmad Sarkār Guhar Šāhī or Hazrat Syedna Riaz Ahmed Sarkar Gohar Shahi (ʾUrdūized Arabic, حضرة سيدنا ریاض احمد سرکار گوھر شاہی) translates as Ḥaḍraẗ (حضرة, his holy presence) Siyyidnā (سيدنا, our master) Riyāḍ (ریاض, gardens of paradise) ʾAḥmad (احمد, highly praised) Sarkār (سرکار, overseer or emissary) Guhar (گوھر, jewel) Šāhī (شاہی, imperial). He is commonly known as Guhar Šāhī or, as most frequently transliterated, Gohar Shahi.
    • Guhar Šāhī asserted that he received an ⫯Uwaysiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Uwaysiyyaẗ) transmission (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Fayḍ) from Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū (see glossary entry). Šāhī referred to his spiritual teachings and meditative practices as Dīn-i ʾIlahī (see glossary entry).
    • Šāhī was born November 25, 1941, in Rāwalpinḋiỳ (ʾUrdū, راولپِنڈى), Pākistāna (see glossary entry). His death is, however, disputed. Although he may have died in either 2001 or 2003 A.D., others argue that, due to persecution and an ongoing fatwā (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Fatwā) on his life, he is in hiding or occultation (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ġaybaẗ).
    • In my opinion, Šāhī was used by Bāhū to lead me to him.
    • “I have never claimed to be Mihdī. The false claimant is misled and ill-fated. However, I have elaborated the signs of True Mihdī. As Holy Prophet Muḥammad (Peace be upon him) has a seal of prophethood at his back, likewise, on the back of Mihdī there will be a seal of Mihdī which will be embossed by veins and who so ever will posses this sign we will accept him as ⫯Imām Mihdī.” (Guhar Šāhī. October, 1999.)
    For a discussion of Šāhī’s Ṣūfiyy order, see the glossary entry, ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ ʾal-Muntahiyyaẗ. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-⫯Aḥmad, (ʾal-)Ḥaḍraẗ, Muḥammad, Sarkār, and ʾal-Sayyad.

  1566. Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū (Persian and ʾUrdū, حضرت سلطان باهو, Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū; Šāh Mukhī Punjabi script, حضرت سلطان باہو, Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū; Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਹਜ਼ਰਤ ਸੁਲਤਾਨ ਬਾਹੂ, Hazarata Sulatāna Bāhū; Bengali, হজ়রত সুলতান বআহঊ, Hazarata Sulatāna Bāhū; Tamiḻ, ஹஜரத சுல்தான் பாஹூ, Hajarata Cultāṉ Pāhū; Telugu, హజ్రత్ సుల్తాన్ బాహూ, Hajrat Sultān Bāhū; or Gujarātī, હાજરી સુલતાન બાહૂ, Hājarī Sulatāna Bāhū) was ʾal-⫯imām (see glossary entry) of his own Ṣūfiyy Path (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ), ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ ʾal-Sarwariyyaẗ (see glossary entry).
    • Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū was a brilliant Ṣūfiyy (see glossary entry) writer of both poetry and prose as well as a beautiful Muslim exemplar of the Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement (see glossary entry). Bāhū was, in my estimation, a great and spiritually advanced waliyy ʾAllꞌah (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Waliyy ʾAllꞌah).
    • Bāhū lived, roughly, from 1628-1691 A.D. in the Punjab area of South Asia (see the glossary entry, Panǧāba). Etymologically, bā (Persian and ʾUrdū, با) is the Persian preposition for “with,” while hū (Arabic, Persian, and ʾUrdū, هو) is the Arabic pronoun for “he” (referring here to God). Bāhū (Persian and ʾUrdū, باهو), a given name which came from his mother (see the glossary entry, Bībī Rastī), can be translated as “with God.” Bāhū’s name came to define his noble character (links page).
    • As Bāhū wrote (translation significantly modified by me), “Neither Sunniyy nor Šīʿiyy am I. Heartburn doth afflict me with one as with the other. The moment I cast them aside, my pathway was arid no longer. I found myself immersed in the ocean of divine Unity.” (Excerpted from Kalām-i Bāhū, in Persianized Arabic, ـعلمِ باهو, Discourse of Bāhū.)

Haṃsa is “swan,” and “sō ⫯ham” is “I am he” or “I am that.” In meditation, haṃsa is sometimes repeated as the breath. Then, reversing the inhalation and exhalation, sō ⫯̕ham is, once again, repeated as the breath. Compare with the glossary entry, Hạməsāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə. See the glossary entry, Paṅca Namaḥ.

  1644. ʾal-H̱ams ʾal-marāḥil ʾal-ṯawriyyaẗ (الأَرْبَع المَرَاحِل الثَوْرِيَّة), the five stages (or phases) revolutionary, are the five revolutionary stages, to my understanding, of the Lesser Peace (see the glossary entry, Ṣulḥ-i ʾAkbar): the contradictions of capitalism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Tanāquḍāt ʾal-ra⫯asmāliyyaẗ), individualist anarchism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Fawḍawiyyaẗ ʾal-fardāniyyaẗ), grassroots communism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Šuyūʿiyyaẗ ʾal-qāʿidaẗ ʾal-šāʿbiyyaẗ), rebuilding from the bottom up (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Iʿādaẗ ʾal-bināˁ ʾal-⫯asfal ⫯ilaỳ ʾal-⫯aʿlaỳ), and socialist global statism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ ʾal-dawlaẗ ʾal-ʿālamiyyaẗ ʾal-ʾištirākiyyaẗ).
    • To put it another way, after the capitalist world system, borrowing Immanuel Wallerstein’s term, collapses from its own internal contradictions, which I believe it will at some point, the world may be in total anarchy. In that condition, I would expect residents of local communities to band together and establish a grassroots communism (collectivization). Then, a new world socialist state, which I call Unitive Socialism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʾIštirākiyyaẗ ʾal-Ttuwaḥḥudiyyaẗ), could be developed from the bottom up. I have, therefore, reversed the order, given by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, of socialism and communism. They expected communism to follow socialism. I see communism as preface and socialism as conclusion.
    • Globally, we are now in the contradictions of capitalism and moving, quite rapidly, into a total individualist anarchy. I am, however, an impossibilist (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-ʾistiḥālaẗ). In my opinion, these revolutionary events will occur, due to dialectical forces, on their own, not primarily through planned human agency. Although I support both socialism and, as a transitional phase, communism, my approval of individualist anarchism is qualified or provisional. It will, to my understanding, simply be the inevitable state of affairs immediately following the collapse. Finally, I do not, personally, favor a market system for the world socialist state but, instead, something more like a command economy.

  1839. Hēsychasmós (Greek, ἡσυχασμός, silence, stillness, or rest), from the Greek hēsychía (ἡσυχία, silence, stillness, or rest), is hesychasm. It is a practice of experiential prayer in the Eastern Orthodox Church (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Kanīsaẗ ʾal-⫯Urṯūḏaksiyyaẗ ʾaš-Ššarqiyyaẗi). See also the glossary entry, Lēctiō dīvīna.

    • Hwan-ung-Ch’ŏn-sa (Korean, 천사환웅 or 天使桓雄) is a Korean version. Ángelos Chouán⫯nk (Ancient and Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, Ἄγγελος Χουάνγκ) is a Greek spelling. The Japanese pronunciation of Hwan-ung is Kan⫯yū (Japanese, 桓雄). Huán-xióng (Chinese, 桓雄) is the Chinese pronunciation.
    • According to Korean tradition, Hwan-ung was sent from Heaven to Earth by His Father, the Lord of Heaven (Korean, 환인 or 桓因, Hwan-in).
    • “In ancient times Hwan-in (Heavenly King, Chesok or Sakrodeveendra) had a young son whose name was Hwan-ung. The boy wished to descend from heaven and live in the human world.... He [Hwan-in] gave Hwan-ung three heavenly treasures, and commanded him to rule over his people.... He [Hwan-ung] led his ministers of wind, rain and clouds in teaching the people more than 360 useful arts, including agriculture and medicine, inculcated moral principles and imposed a code of law.” (Ilyon, Samguk Yusa: Legends and History of the Three Kingdoms of Ancient Korea. Ha Tae-Hung and Grafton K. Mintz, translators. Rockville, MD: Silk Pagoda imprint of Disruptive Publishing. 2006. Kindle edition. Originally published in Seoul, South Korea: Yonsei University Press. 1972. Page 32.)
    • For what it’s worth, on October 6, 2014, I meditated on whether Hwan-ung was a Prophet or an Angel. Almost immediately, the Modern Turkish word for angel, Melek (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Malāk, hā-Mạləʾāḵə, and Melek), came into my mind.
  1842. Həyānəg hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, הְיָנְגּ הָמַלְאָךְ), Hyānġ ʾal-Malāk (هْيَانْغ الْمَلَاك), or Hyāng Farištah (Persian, هْیَانْگ فَرِشْتَه), Unseen (Indonesian) the Angel, is Hyang the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.
  1843. Həyəgiyẹʾih hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, הְיְגִּיֶאִה הָמַלְאָךְ), Hāyāǧiyā ʾal-Malāk (هَايَاجِيَا الْمَلَاك), Hayagīhyā Farištah (Persian, هَیَگِیهْیَا فَرِشْتَه), or Ángelos Hygieía (Ancient Greek, Ἄγγελος Ὑγιεία), Hygiene (Ancient Greek) the Angel, is Hygieia the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.
  1844. Hēylēl (הֵילֵל) is Hebrew for Lūcifer or Lucifer (Latin for light-bearer), shining one, morning star, or, by extension, Venus. The Arabic form is Halīl (هَلِيل). The Greek version is Heōsphóros (Ἑωσφόρος), dawn-bringer. In my opinion, since the Archangels are messengers (or conveyers) of divine blessings, Hēylēl indicates the absence of those blessings.
    • “The epitome of this discourse is that it is possible that one thing in relation to another may be evil, and at the same time within the limits of its proper being it may not be evil. Then it is proved that there is no evil in existence; all that God created He created good. This evil is nothingness; so death is the absence of life. When man no longer receives life, he dies. Darkness is the absence of light: when there is no light, there is darkness. Light is an existing thing, but darkness is nonexistent. Wealth is an existing thing, but poverty is nonexisting.” (ʽAbdu’l-Bahá, Some Answered Questions. Page 264.)
    • In Canaanite mythology, the shining one is ʿAṭṭār (Arabic spelling, عَطَّار) or ʿẠttʾār (in Hebrew script, עַטּאָר) who unsuccessfully challenged Bāʿạl (Hebrew, בַּעַל) for dominion. He is also known as ʾĔl (Hebrew, אֱלֹ), a word which is related to ʾĔlōhīm (see glossary entry). ʿAṭṭār then became the god of the underworld.
    • ʾal-ʿAṭṭār (العَطَّار), “the aromatic,” is also the name of an essential oil. A Persian poet, commonly known as ʿAṭṭār (عَطَّار), wrote the mystical poem, Manṭiq uṭ-Ṭayr (Persianized Arabic, مَنطِق اُلطَیر‎, conference or speech of the birds). It established the literary genre for Bahá’u’lláh’s Tablet (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Lawḥ), The Seven Valleys (see the glossary entry, Haft Vādī). In modern Arabic, ʾal-ʿaṭṭār (Arabic spelling, العَطَّار) is the druggist, perfumer, or spice dealer (spice merchant).

The Hebrew-language spelling, including the vowel-points, is unaltered from the original. See also the glossary entry, Hēylēl.
  1846. Hēymān hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, הֵימָן הָמַלְאָךְ), Believe (or Trust) the Angel, is Heman the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). Haymān ʾal-Malāk (هَيْمَان الْمَلَاك) is my Arabization. Ángelos Hēmán (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ἡμάν) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.

Hīzāyū⫯īl ʾal-Malāk (هِيزَايُوئِيل الْمَلَاك) is my Arabization. Ángelos Haziḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ἀζιήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  1849. ʾal-Hībiyyīna (الهِيبِيِّينَ), ʾal-hībiyyūna (الهِيبِيُّونَ), or ʾal-hībiyyāt (الهِيبِيَّات), with ʾal-hībiyy (الهِيبِيّ) as the singular form, are the hippies. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṯaqāfaẗ ʾal-muḍāddaẗ min ʾal-hībiyyīna.
  1850. ʾal-H̱idmat (الخدمت), with ʾal-ẖidam (الخدم) as a plural form, is service. The Modern Turkish form, Hizmet, sometimes refers to a contemporary or modernist expression of ʾal-⫯Islām (see glossary entry), Hizmet Hareket (Turkishized Arabic for Service Movement). It is promoted by the Turkish-born Muslim, Fethullah Gülen (born in 1941), who currently resides in the U.S. state, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wilāyaẗ Binsilfāniyā ʾal-Kūmunwilṯ). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥarakaẗ.

My added vowel-points are only approximations. hā-Yārōq hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, הָיָרֹק הָמַלְאָךְ), the Green One the Angel, is my Hebrew-language translation. Ángelos Chidr (Greek, Ἄγγελος Χιδρ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
    • ʾal-H̱iḍr (الخِضْر) is a mythical Character (i.e., recorded in sacred narratives) from ⫰Islāmic folklore. He may have been a Preceptor of Moses (see the glossary entry, Mōšẹh). The Angel’s verdant name may be related to Hermēs (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Hīrmīs), the beloved Prophet of God. In some cases, the traditional account of ʾal-H̱iḍr has been invoked as the source of an ʿUwaysiyy transmission (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Uwaysiyyaẗ). In addition, He is, as Hizir (Modern Turkish), honored by the Turkish Alevis (see the glossary entry, Alevîlik).

This doctrine is accepted within Arminianism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Armīniyyaẗ). For the contrasting doctrines of eternal security and the persistence of the saints, see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Amn ʾal-⫯abadiyy.
  1853. ʾal-H̱iffaẗu ʾal-rrūḥ (الخِفَّةُ الرُّوح), lightness of spirit, is levity or humor.

  1855. ʾal-Hīġiliyyaẗ ʾal-ḥadīṯaẗ (الهيغلية الحديثة), Hegelianism modern, is neo-Hegelianism.

  1857. ʾal-Ḥiǧraẗ (الهِجْرَة), the Emigration, is the name of the ⫰Islāmic calendar. It is dated from the Emigration, or night journey, of the Prophet Muḥammad and the Muslims from Mecca (Makkāẗ, مَكَّة) to Medina (ʾal-Madīnaẗ, اَلْمَدِينَة, “the city”) in 622 A.D. Those first Muslim pilgrims are called ʾal-muḥāǧirūn (المهاجرون), the emigrants. In addition, ʾal-Ḥaǧǧ (اَمكة), the Emigration, is the name given to the Pilgrimage by Muslims to Mecca. Muslims who fulfill the ⫰Islāmic requirement to take the Pilgrimage are entitled to add ʾal-Ḥaǧǧ, or ʾal-Ḥaǧǧī (اَمكةي) as the possessive or an appurtenance, to their names (“the emigrant” or “the pilgrim”). The complete Pilgrimage authorized in the Bahá’í Sacred Texts is not yet possible. For the time being, Bahá’ís visit the Holy Land.
  1858. ʾal-Ḥiǧr al-ʾIswadda (الحِجْر الاِسْوَدَّ), the stone black, is the Black Stone. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Kaʿbaẗ.
  1859. hā-Hiẖəlạhăḇūṯ (Hebrew, הָהִתְלַהֲבוּת‎), my own ISO transliteration (as usual), is Hebrew for flaming fervor or, more weakly, enthusiasm. Traditionally, the term, hā-hiẖəlạhăḇūṯ, has referred to Hasidic (Hebrew, חָסִידִי, Ḥāsiydiy) ecstasy (pious ecstasy). See the glossary entry, hā-Ḥāsiyḏōṯ.
  1860. ʾal-Ḥikāyaẗ (الحِكَايَة), with ʾal-ḥikāyāt (الحِكَايَات) as the plural form, is the story or the account.
  1861. ʾal-Ḥikāyaẗuṇ ʾal-ramziyyaẗ (الحِكَايَةٌ الرَمْزِيَّة), the story (or the account) symbolic, is the parable or the allegory. ʾal-Ḥikāyātuṇ ʾal-ramziyyaẗ (الحِكَايَاتٌ الرَمْزِيَّة), the stories (or the accounts) symbolic, is my translated plural form.
  1862. Hiḵəṯiyriyʾēl (Hebrew, הִכְתִּירִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Coronation in ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) or Discovery of ʾĔlōhiym the Angel, is my rendering of Ithuriel the Angel. Hiḵəṯiyr (Hebrew, הִכְתִּיר) is to crown or to coronate. Tawwaǧa fi ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (تَوَّجَ فِي الله الْمَلَاك), Crowned in God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation.
  1863. ʾal-Ḥikmaẗ (الحِكْمَة) is wisdom. Ḥikmat (حكمت) is the Persianized Arabic spelling. ʾal-Ḥakīm (الحكيم), from the same Semitic root, is the sage or the wise one. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥikmaẗ ʾal-ʾilāhiyaẗ and Lawḥ-i Ḥikmat.
  1864. ʾal-Ḥikmaẗ ʾal-⫯Insānu (الحِكْمَة الْإِنْسَانُ), the wisdom of man, is Anthroposophy (German, Anthroposophie). It was developed by Rudolf Joseph Lorenz Steiner (رُودُولْف يُوسِف لُورِينْز شْتَايْنِر, Rūdūlf Yūsif Lūrinz Štāynir), 1961-1925. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-ṯiraṯaẗ ʾal-⫯aḍʿāf ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ, ʾal-Ǧamāʿaẗ al-Masīḥiyyaẗ, and ʾal-Ḥikmaẗ.
  1865. ʾal-Ḥikmaẗ ʾal-ʾilāhiyyaẗ (الحِكْمَة الإِلهِيّة) is the divine philosophy or, literally, the divine wisdom. This historically ⫰Islāmic term is elaborated upon and developed by Bahá’u’lláh in the Lawḥ-i Ḥikmat (ﻟﻮﺡِ حكمت), Persianized Arabic for Tablet of Wisdom, and is also discussed in other places. In my opinion, the divine philosophy has been reinterpreted as progressive Revelation (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Waḥiyy ʾal-tadrīǧiyy). Contrast with the glossary entries, ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-ẖālidaẗ and ʾal-Ṯiyūṣūfiyyaẗ.
  1866. ʾal-Ḥilāqaẗ fī ⫯Akhām (الحِلَاقَة فِي أَكْهَام), the shave (or the razor) of Ockham, is Ockham’s razor (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Baẖula ʾal-ššadīd). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Maḏhabu ʾal-falsafiyy min ʾal-⫯ismāniyyaẗ.
  1867. ʾal-Hilyūn (الهِلْيُون) is asparagus.
  1868. ʾal-Ḥimyaẗ ʾal-Mutawassiṭiyyaẗ (الحِمْيَة المُتَوَسِّطِيَّة), the diet of the Middle, is the Mediterranean diet.
  1869. Hiṃdī (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, हिन्दी), an Indian language, uses a modified version of the Dēvanāgarī (see glossary entry) script. It is one of the two major forms of Hindustānī (see glossary entry). ʾal-Hindiyyaẗ (الهِنْدِيَّة) is an Arabic spelling. The other Hindustānī script is ʾUrdū (see glossary entry).
  1870. Hindu (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, हिन्दु) is derived from Hind (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, हिन्द), the Indus River of South Asia (in modern-day Pākistāna, Tibet, and northern India).
  1871. ʾal-Hindūsiyyaẗ (الهِنْدُوسِيَّة), with ʾal-Hindūsiyy (الهِنْدُوسِيّ) as the possessive or an appurtenance (“Hindu”), is Hinduism. The Armenian form is Hinduizm (Հինդուիզմ).
  1872. Hindustānī (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, हिन्दुस्तानी, Hindustānī; or ʾUrdū, ہندوستانی, Hindustānī) is the name given to Hiṃdī (see glossary entry) and ʾUrdū (see glossary entry).
    • Hindustānī has been influenced by Persian (see the glossary entry, Fārsī), Arabic (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿArabiyyaẗ), Sanskrit (see the glossary entry, Saṃskṛtam), and other languages. In recent years, many English-language words have also been incorporated into Hindustānī. Aside from some technical, especially religious, terms, Hiṃdī and ʾUrdū speakers are, for the most part, mutually intelligible.

It is termed the common faculty, because it communicates between the outward and inward powers and thus is common to the outward and inward powers.” (ʽAbdu’l-Bahá, Some Answered Questions. Page 210.)

He calls them ‘Star Kids.’ He believes they exist in sufficient numbers to run workshops for both them and their parents. These workshops are called ‘Helping Children Explore their ET Encounters’ and are designed for those ‘special children and their parents, who have been touched by a heritage from the Stars. They often seem like little adults in children’s bodies.’” (Mary Rodwell, “Star Children.” Australian Close Encounter Resource Network. No date. Retrieved on March 2, 2014.)

    • For instance, ʾal-ẖunūṯaẗ ʾal-⫯unṯawiyyaẗ ʾal-maẓhar ʾal-nafsiyy (الخنوثة الأُنْثَوِيَّة المَظْهَر النَفْسِيّ), hermaphrodism of the female expressed psychologically, is male psychological androgyny. ʾal-H̱unūṯaẗ ʾal-rruǧūlaẗ ʾal-maẓhar ʾal-nafsiyy (الخنوثة الرُّجُولَة المَظْهَر النَفْسِيّ), hermaphrodism of manliness expressed psychologically, is my own rendering of female psychological androgyny.
    • The framework of psychological androgyny was devised by Sandra Bem (see the glossary entry, Sāndrā Bīm). An experimental elementary school in California applied the framework. Years ago, I played a video for my sociology classes which featured the school. However, Bem has since abandoned psychological androgyny in favor of gender schema theory (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ ʾal-muẖaṭṭaṭ ʾal-ǧinsayni).
    See also the glossary entries, ʾal-H̱unūṯaẗ, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ ʾal-muẖaṭṭaṭ ʾal-ǧinsayni, and ʾal-Qā⫯imaẗ Bīm ʾal-⫯adwār ʾal-ǧinsiyyaẗ.

  1972. ʾal-Ḥuqūqu ʾal-madaniyyaẗ (الحُقُوقُ المَدَنِيَّة), rights (or truths) civil, are civil rights. ʾal-Ḥaqq ʾal-madaniyyaẗ (الحَقّ المَدَنِيَّة), right (or truth) civil, is the civil right. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥuqūqu ʾal-⫯insān. ʾal-Ḥarakaẗ ʾal-ḥuqūqu ʾal-madaniyyaẗ (الحَرَكَة الحُقُوقُ المَدَنِيَّة), the movement of rights civil, is the civil rights movement.
  1973. ʾal-Ḥuqūqu ʾal-mar⫯aẗ (الحُقُوقُ المَرْأَة), the rights of women, are women’s rights. ʾal-Ḥaqq ʾal-mar⫯aẗ (الحَقّ المَرْأَة), the right of women, is the women’s right.

  1975. ʾal-Ḥurayaẗ (الحُرَيْرَة), with ʾal-ḥurayāt (الحُرَيْرَات) as the plural form, is the calorie.
  1976. ʾal-Ḥūriyyaẗ (الحُورِيَّة), with ʾal-ḥūriyyāt (الحُورِيّات) as the plural form, is the Maiden (both feminine nouns). ʾal-Ḥūriyy (الحُورِيّ), the possessive or an appurtenance, is maidenly or fairylike. A Hebrew cognate is hā-ḥīwēr (הָחִוֵּר) for pale, weak, or unimpressive.
    • In Persian, the singular convention is ḥūrī (Persian, حُورِی). Ḥūr (Persian, حُور) is the Persian plural style. In ʾUrdū, the singular form is ḥūrī (حُوری), while the plural forms are ḥūriyān (حُوریان) and ḥūriyāṉ (حُوریاں). The Bengali singular and plural cases are, respectively, huri (হুরি) and hurira (হুরির). Hūra (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, हूर) and hōriyāṃ (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, होरियां) are the singular and plural Hiṃdī conventions. In Guramukhī Punjabi, hūra (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਹੂਰ) and hōri⫯āṁ (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਹੋਰਿਆਂ) are the singular and plural forms. The usual Anglicized spelling is houri(s).
    • ʾal-Ḥūriyyaẗ is the Maiden, the Nymph, the Fairy, or, strictly speaking, the black-in-white-eyed Damsel. The “whiteness” signifies purity or chastity, which has led some Arabists to translate ʾal-ḥūriyyāt as “the virgins.” The word ḥūriyyaẗ (حُورِيّة) is derived from a feminine form of the Semitic root, Ḥ-W-R (حور or, in Hebrew, חור), literally, whiteness when juxtaposed against the blackness of the eye. ʾal-Ḥūriyyaẗ is called by that name because She possesses ʾal-ḥawar (الحور): the contrast (or alteration) between the extreme whiteness of Her sclera (the white of the eye) and the deep blackness of Her iris (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿAyn).
    • ʾal-Ḥūr (الحُور) is, on the one hand, the plural of both the feminine ʾal-ḥawrāˁ (الحَوْراء) and the masculine ʾal-⫯aḥwar (الأحْوَر). Perhaps, therefore, ʾal-Ḥūr (roughly, “the Pure Ones”), as a generic term for the Archangels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ), is not necessarily related to gender. On the other hand, and maybe even more importantly, Shoghi Effendi consistently translated the personalized forms of the word as feminine.
    See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥūriyyaẗ ʾal-ġābāt, Ḥūriyyaẗ ʾal-Malāk, ʾal-Taʿaddud ʾal-⫯azwāǧ, and ʾal-Taʿaddud ʾal-zzawǧāt.
  1977. ʾal-Ḥūriyyaẗ ʾal-ġābāt (الحُورِيّة الْغَابَات), the nymph of the forests (or the nymph of the jungles), is the wood nymph. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Ġābaẗ, ʾal-Ġābaẗ ʾal-mutaḥaǧiraẗ, ʾal-Ḥūriyyaẗ, and Ḥūriyyaẗ ʾal-Malāk.
  1978. Ḥūriyyaẗ ʾal-Malāk (حُورِيَّة الْمَلَاك) is Maiden the Angel. This magnificent Being is, I feel, the central Archangel of the current Dispensation and, therefore, the Essence or Unity of Humanity. Ḥūriyy hā-Mạləʾāḵə (חוּרִיּ הָמַלְאָךְ) is a Hebraized version (with my approximated vowel-points). Other styles include: Ḥūrī Farištah (Persian, حُورِی فَرِشْتَه, and ʾUrdū, حُوری فَرِشْتَہ), Huri Melek (Modern Turkish), Ángelos Oúri (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ούρι), Hori Tenshi (Japanese, 堀天使), Hori Ch’ŏnsa (Korean, 호리 천사), Tiānshǐ Huòlì (Chinese, 天使霍丽), Hori Angel (Ukrainian Cyrillic, Хори Ангел), Huri Dēbadūta (Bengali, হুরি দেবদূত), Hūra Svargadūta (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, हूर स्वर्गदूत), Hūra Fariśatā (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਹੂਰ ਫ਼ਰਿਸ਼ਤਾ), and Hōrī Dēvadūta (Gujarātī, હોરી દેવદૂત).
    • ʾal-Ḥūriyyaẗ, while symbolizing the Holy Spirit of Bahá’u’lláh, is also, in my opinion, a sentient Being. Bahá’u’lláh was, I suspect, engaged in actual conversations. That is to say, perhaps Her glorified Presence the Maiden is a Resident of the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām) and among its Archangels. Through the Archangel Ḥūriyyaẗ (حُورِيَّة), Bahá’u’lláh, while in His human form, may, perhaps like all the Prophets, have entered into conscious contact with that magnificent World of Dreams.
    • To my understanding, the Revelation of Bahá’u’lláh expresses the Maiden. The Revelation is feminine. Bahá’u’lláh, as the Perfect Man, interacted with the universal Prophetic Nature (the Holy Spirit, the Word of God, or the Will of God) as ʾal-Ḥūriyyaẗ, the glorious divine Feminine who descended, with all Her majesty, upon Carmel. Together, these encounters constituted, in my opinion, the single most important event in Earthly history. The Maiden was blessed to become the specific Archangel of the Bahá’í Revelation. The feminine spirit (attributes), the activity of the Maiden, animates the Head of the Bahá’í Faith.
    • In light of the divinely Feminine Spirit of the Bahá’í Revelation, all of the Maiden’s beloved “consorts” (Bahá’u’lláh, ʽAbdu’l-Bahá, the Guardian of the Cause of God, and the members of the Universal House of Justice) have been men. Radically, I regard this relationship as a reversal of the polygyny (male polygamy) of old into an entirely new heavenly polyandry (female polygamy) of a sort. On one level, women have now, dispensationally, been exalted over men. Now, I personally believe, the beloved Maiden mediates the grace of Bahá’u’lláh and the Báb to the men of the Universal House of Justice.

  1979. ʾal-Ḥurriyyaẗu (الحُرِّيَّةُ), with ʾal-ḥurriyyāt (الحُرِّيّات) in the plural form, is freedom or liberty. For illustrations, see the glossary entries below.

It was a liberty granted to militias (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mīlīšiyā) in the United States. Those militias have long since been superseded by the military (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿAskariyyaẗ), particularly the army (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ǧayš).

Bahá’ís are the members of His Household (see the glossary entries, ʾal-⫯Ahl, ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-Bayt, and Yā ⫯ahl ʾal-Bāhā).

And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall blot them out into the water of bitterness: and he shall make the woman drink the water of bitterness that causeth the curse; and the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her and become bitter. And the priest shall take the meal-offering of jealousy out of the woman’s hand, and shall wave the meal-offering before Jehovah, and bring it unto the altar: and the priest shall take a handful of the meal-offering, as the memorial thereof, and burn it upon the altar, and afterward shall make the woman drink the water.

    • To my understanding, no one has been abducted by aliens. These experiences are, instead, dreams and visions. However, the dream state, as a portal to the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin) of Archangels, is, potentially, much more glorious than commonly imagined. That realm, an ontologically real dimension of the cosmic envelope (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ġilāf ʾal-dunyawiyy), is filled with possibilities. Moreover, our dreams and visions within the Inner, Angelic World which are not veiled, distorted, and impurified by vain imaginations, describe real phenomena or spiritual substances, not simply mental idealizations.
    • “One [sort of spiritual discovery] is the revelations of the Prophets, and the spiritual discoveries of the elect. The visions of the Prophets are not dreams; no, they are spiritual discoveries and have reality. They say, for example, ‘I saw a person in a certain form, and I said such a thing, and he gave such an answer.’ This vision is in the world of wakefulness, and not in that of sleep. Nay, it is a spiritual discovery which is expressed as if it were the appearance of a vision.“ (ʽAbdu’l-Bahá, Some Answered Questions. Page 251.)

  2472. ʾal-ʾIsataẖalāb (الاستخلاب) is chelation. A more elaborate term for chelation is ʾal-harakaẗ ʾal-ʿamaliyyaẗ ʾal-⫯izālaẗ ʾal-maʿdin ʾal-ṯaqīl (الحَرَكَة العَمَلِيَّة الإزالة المَعْدِن الثَقِيل), the movement process of the removal of metal heavy. Either way, chelation is a dangerous pseudoscientific practice which, unfortunately, has been used with many Autistic children.
  2473. ʾal-ʾIšāra (الاشارة), or ʾal-Išārat (الاشارةت) in the plural form, is the allusion (a subtle allusion), the pointer, or the reference.
  2474. ⫯Isbāniyā (إِسْبَانِيَا) is Spain.
  2475. ʾal-ʾIstiẖaraẗ (الاِسْتِخَارَة) refers, in the highest sense of the term, to moral guidance or, literally, to seeking beneficence. It also has a superstitious definition as divination (fortunetelling), especially bibliomancy (arbitrarily pointing to a text), which is not recommended here. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-ʾIstiẖaraẗ bi-ʾal-kataba.
  2476. ʾal-ʾIstiẖaraẗ bi-ʾal-kataba (الاِسْتِخَارَة بالكَتَبَ), moral guidance through the books, is bibliomancy. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-ʾIstiẖaraẗ.
  2477. ʿĪsaỳ (عِيسَى) or, commonly among the Copts (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Qibtiyy) and other Arabic-speaking Christians, Yasūʿa (يَسُوعَ), is Jesus. See also the glossary entry, Yēšūʿạ.
  2478. ʾal-ʾIšbāʿ ʾal-raġabāt ʾal-ḏātiyyaẗ ( الإِشْبَاع الرَغَبَات الذَاتِيَّة), the gratification (or saturation) of the desires (or wishes) of the self, is self-actualization (as a financial concept).
  2479. ⫯Isbirāntū (الإِسْبِرَانْتُو) in Arabic, ʾIspirāntū (اسپرانتو) in Persian and ʾUrdū, or ʾẸsəpērạnəṭō (אֶסְפֵּרַנְטוֹ) in Hebrew is Esperanto (Esperanto, hopeful one). The Hiṃdī and Bengali spelling is Ēspērāntō (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, एस्पेरांतो, and Bengali, এস্পেরান্তো). The Guramukhī Punjabi form is Ēsapērāntō (ਏਸਪੇਰਾਂਤੋ). The Tamiḻ convention is Esparēṉṭō (Tamiḻ, எஸ்பரேன்டோ). This proposed international auxiliary language was constructed by Ludwig Lazarus Zamenhof (لُودْفِيغ عَازَر زَامِنْهُوف, Lūdfīġ ʿĀzar Zāminhūf), 1859-1917.
    • Zamenhof’s youngest daughter, Lidia Zamenhof (لِيدِيَا زَامِنْهُوف, Līdiyā Zāminhūf), 1904–1942, joined the Bahá’í Faith. She came from a Jewish background and died in a Nazi death camp. See the glossary entry, ʾal-Nāziyyaẗ.
    • “Regarding the subject of Esperanto: It should be made clear to the believers [Bahá’ís] that while the teaching of that language has been repeatedly encouraged by ʽAbdu’l-Bahá, there is no reference either from Him or from Bahá’u’lláh that can make us believe that it will necessarily develop into the international auxiliary language of the future.” (From a letter, June 4ᵗʰ, 1937, written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to the National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá’ís of the United States and Canada. Lights of Guidance. Number 1140.)

  2480. ʾal-⫯Išfāq (الإشفاق) is compassion. This intellectual trait should not be confused with empathy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Taʿāṭuf). Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Mušārakaẗ ʾal-wiǧdāniyyaẗ.
  2481. ⫯Isḥāq (إِسْحَاق), Yiṣḥāq (Hebrew, יִצְחָק), or ʾIsḥāq (Persian and ʾUrdū, اِسحَاق) is the Biblical Prophet Isaac.
  2482. ʾal-ʿIṣiyān ʾal-madaniyy (العِصْيان المَدَنِيّ), disobedience civil, is civil disobedience. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Muqāwamaẗ ʾal-lā-ʿunfiyyaẗ.
  2483. ʾal-⫯Iskīmū (الإِسْكِيمُو) is the Eskimo or Eskimos. For the more appropriate term, see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Inuwīt.
  2484. ʾal-⫯Islāḥ ʾal-Brūtistāntiyy (الإِصْلَاح البرُوتِسْتانْتِيّ), Reformation Protestant, is the Protestant Reformation. ʾal-Masīḥiyyaẗ ʾal-Brūtistāntiyyaẗ (المَسِيحِيَّة البرُوتِسْتانْتِيَّة), Christianity Protestant, is Protestant Christianity.
  2485. ʾal-⫯Islām (الإسْلام), surrender, is the religion founded by the Prophet Muḥammad (see glossary entry). The Persian and ʾUrdū spelling is ʾIslām (اسلام). The Tamiḻ form is Islāmiyam (இஸ்லாமியம்). The Gujarātī spelling is Islāma (ઇસ્લામ). The Hiṃdī and Guramukhī Punjabi form is Isalāma (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, इसलाम, and Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਇਸਲਾਮ). The Armenian convention is Islam (իսլամ). For the Semitic root, see the glossary entry, Sallama.
  2486. Islamicate, a coined English-language term, is applied to groups or movements which originated or developed within, or were significantly influenced by, an ⫰Islāmic cultural context. For example, this wider usage is relevant to some of the Ṣūfiyy orders associated with the Čištī (see glossary entry) movement in South Asia, the Indian Naqšbandī (see glossary entry) movement of Rāma Candra (see glossary entry), and the Indian Śrī Viśva Vijñāna Vidyā Ādhyātmika Pīṭham (see glossary entry) of Brahmarṣi Śrī Madin Kabīra Śāha (see glossary entry). The rubric may also be useful when contextualizing the Bahá’í Faith.
    • According to Marshall G. S. Hodgson, who proposed using the designation, “The adjective ‘Islamic’ ... must be restricted to ‘of or pertaining to Islam’ .... Unfortunately, there seems to be no adjective in use for ... the society or culture of Islamdom [the Islamic world].... I have been driven to invent a term, ‘Islamicate’.... [It] would refer ... to the social and cultural complex historically associated with Islam and the Muslims, both among Muslims themselves and even when found among non-Muslims.” (The Venture of Islam. Volume 1. The Classical Age of Islam. Chicago, IL: The University of Chicago Press. 1977. Page 59.)
    • The following comments by Shoghi Effendi are particularly relevant: “They [Bahá’í teachers] must strive to obtain, from sources that are authoritative and unbiased, a sound knowledge of the history and tenets of Islám—the source and background of their Faith—and approach reverently and with a mind purged from preconceived ideas the study of the Qur’án which, apart from the sacred scriptures of the Bábí and Bahá’í Revelations, constitutes the only Book which can be regarded as an absolutely authenticated Repository of the Word of God.” (The Advent of Divine Justice. Page 49.)
    For my Arabic-language translation of Islamicate, see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mumāṯalaẗ ʾal-⫯Islāmiyyaẗ. See also the glossary entries, Bā Šāhrāh va bī Šāhrāh, ʾal-Niyū Taṣawwuf, and South Asia.
  2487. ʾal-⫯Islām ʾal-siyāsiyy (الإسْلام السِيَاسِيّ) is political ⫰Islām.
    • The term, ʾal-⫯Islām ʾal-siyāsiyy, is comparable with some uses of ʾal-⫯Islāmiyyaẗ (الإِسْلَامِيَّة) or “⫯Islāmism.”
    • I will, on occasion, use “⫯Islāmism” because, while contested, it is, generally, a less objectionable term to most ʾal-Salāfiyyaẗ (السلفِيَّة), or “predecessors,” than the designations ʾal-Wahhābiyy (الوَهّابيّ), the possessive or an appurtenance, and ʾal-Wahhābiyyaẗ (الوَهّابيَّة), the movement itself. The last two terms are named after the disputed founder Muḥammad ʾibn ʿAbd Wahhāb (مُحَمَّد اِبْن عَبد الوَهّاب). He lived 1703-1792. Unfortunately, the preferred terms ʾal-Salāfiyy (السلفيّ), the possessive or an appurtenance, and ʾal-Salāfiyyaẗ, the movement itself, are virtually unknown outside of Muslim and intellectual circles.
    Compare with the glossary entries, Bā Šāhrāh va bī Šāhrāh, Orthopraxy and heteropraxy, and Pronomianism and antinomianism. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Qāʿidaẗ and ʾal-Ṭālib.
  2488. ʾal-⫯Islām ʾal-taqaddumiyy (الإِسْلَام التَقَدُّمِيّ), the ⫰Islām progressive, is progressive ⫰Islām.
  2489. Íslenska is Icelandic. It is the Germanic language of Iceland (Icelandic, Ísland) which is written in a modified Roman alphabet.
  2490. ⫰Ismāʿīl (إِسْمَاعِيل) is Arabized Hebrew for the Almighty God hears. The Hebrew form is Yišəmāʿēʾl (יִשְׁמָעֵאל).
    • Traditionally, Ishmael (the common English-language spelling), one of the sons of Abraham (see the glossary entry, ʾẠḇərāhām), became the patriarch of the Arab people.
    • ʾIsmāʿīl Siyāhpūš or “Ismail Siahpoosh” (Persianized Arabic اِسْمَاعِیل سِیَاهْپُوش‎) was a dear ʾIyrānian friend of mine. He was a soft-spoken, deeply spiritual man with a pure heart. His last name, Siyāhpūš (سِیَاهْپُوش‎), is Persian for clad or covered (پوش‎, pūš) in black (سیاه‎, siyāh). Ismail was born on December 28, 1919, the same year as my father Harold, and died on March 7, 2010. Although he was fluent in Persian (see the glossary entry, Fārsī), his first language was Arabic (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿArabiyyaẗ).
  2491. ⫯Ismāʿīl ʾibn Ǧaʿfar aṣ-Ṣādiq (إِسْمَاعِيل اِبْن جَعفَر الصَادِق) is the name of the Seventh ⫯Imām in ʾal-Nizāriyyūna and the Eighth ⫯Imām in ʾal-Mustāʿliyyaẗ (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Ismāʿīliyyaẗ). See also the glossary entries, ʾal-⫯Imām, ⫯Ismāʿīl, and ʾal-ʾIṯnā ʾal-ʿUšriyyaẗ.
  2492. ʾal-⫯Ismāʿīliyyaẗ (الإِسْمَاعِيلِيَّة‎) or the Ismailis are, based on a dispute over the identity of the seventh ⫯Imām (see the glossary entries, ʾal-⫯Imām and ⫯Ismāʿīl ʾibn Ǧaʿfar aṣ-Ṣādiq), also known as Seveners. They are a branch of Šīʿiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Šīʿaẗ) ⫰Islām (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Islām). ʾal-Ismāʿīliyy (الإِسْمَاعِيلِيّ‎) is the possessive or an appurtenance. Now divided into factions, they are distinguished from ʾal-ʾIṯnā ʾal-ʿUšriyyaẗ (see glossary entry) in their view of the identity of the seventh ⫯Imām:
    • One branch, ʾal-Nazāriyyūna (النزَارِيُّونَ‎) or the Nazaris, with ʾal-Nazāriyy (النِزَارِيّ‎) as the possessive or an appurtenance, have a living hereditary ⫯Imām. The Nazāriyy (نِزَارِيّ‎) approach to ⫰Islām combines mysticism with a progressive approach to many social issues. Members are called ʾal–Nazāriyyūna (النَزَارِيُّونَ).
    • Sat Paṃtha or Sat Panth (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, सत् पंथ), “true or ideal path,” is a breakaway movement from ʾal-Nizāriyyūna which was founded in India by Pīr Ṣadr ʾad-Dīn (see glossary entry). The Sat Paṃtha movement used Hindu metaphors to present ⫰Islām. “According to [Anita Raina] Thapan ..., the Ismailis did not ‘resort to force to win over converts. Instead they used local beliefs to spread their own message.’ She cites Pir Sadruddin’s version of the Dasavatar, a Hindu pantheon of ten Hindu Gods that shows Ali (a holy figure ... revered by the Shias) to be the last incarnation of the Lord Vishnu!” (Rita Kothari, “Being-in-translation: Sufism in Sindh.” Decentering Translation Studies: India and Beyond. Judy Wakabayashi and Rita Kothari, editors. Philadelphia, PA: John Benjamins North America. 2009. Page 124.)
    • Another branch, ʾal-Mustāʿliyyaẗ (المستعلِيَّة‎), with ʾal-Mustāʿliyy (المستعلِيّ‎) as the possessive or an appurtenance, is headed by the ʾÂġā H̱‎ān or Agha Khan (Persian, آغا خان‎), the current name given to that movement’s hereditary ⫯Imām. ʾÂġā (Persian, آغَا) is ruler or commander. H̱ān (Persian, خَان‎) is lord or chief.
    • Another faction, is ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-Tawḥīd (الأَهْل التوحيد, the People of Unification) or ʾal-Muwaḥḥidūn (see glossary entry). In Arabic, they are commonly, though imprecisely, known as ʾal-Durziyyaẗ (الدُرْزِيَّة) or the Druze, with ʾal-Durūz (الدُرُوز) as the plural form and ʾal-Durziyy (الْدُرْزِيّ) as the possessive or an appurtenance. Similarly, they are generally known, in Hebrew, as hā-Dərūziym (Hebrew, הָדְּרוּזִים), with hā-Dərūziy (Hebrew, הָדְּרוּזִי) as the possessive or an appurtenance. The word “Druze” may have been named after ʾad-Darāzī (لدرازي) whom ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-Tawḥīd consider to have been a heretic.
    See the glossary entries, ʿAliyy ʾibn ⫯Abī Ṭālib, Avatāra, Bā Šāhrāh va bī Šāhrāh, ʾad-Dīn, Pántheon, Sat, and Viṣṇu.
  2493. ʾal-ʾIsm ʾal-⫯Aʿẓam (الاِسْم الأَعْظَم) is the Greatest (or Most Great) Name. In the Bahá’í Faith, the Greatest Name is the Name of Bahá’u’lláh (Bahāˁ or “Baháʾ”) in any of its forms. To put it another way, Bahá’u’lláh is the Supreme Manifestation (or Prophet) of God.
  2494. ʾal-⫯Isqāṭ ʾal-naǧmiyy (الإِسْقاط النَجْمِيّ), projection astral, is astral projection. The plural form is ʾal-tawaqquʿāt ʾal-naǧmiyyaẗ (التَوَقُّعَات النَجْمِيَّة), projections astral (tense modified from the original). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-H̱āriǧ ʾal-ǧasima ʾal-ẖaburāt.
  2495. ⫯Isrāfīl ʾal-Malāk (إِسْرَافِيل الْمَلَاك), Israfil the Angel, is the Angel Israfil (the Burning One), possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). In Hebrew he is, as the Angel of Mercury, Rāp̄āʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (רָפָאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Raphael (or Rephael) the Angel, the Angel Raphael, ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Healer. His Greek name is Ángelos Raphaḗl (Ἄγγελος Ραφαήλ). He is also called Ḥāriyp̄ or Hariph (Hebrew, חָרִיף), the Bright or Sharp One. In Persian, He is Tīr or Tir Farištah (تِیر فَرِشْتَه).
  2496. ʾal-⫯Išrāṭuṇ ⫯adawātiyy (الإِشْرَاطٌ أَدَوَاتِيّ), conditioning instrumental, is instrumental conditioning. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Išrāṭuṇ ʾistiṯābiyy.
  2497. ʾal-⫯Išrāṭuṇ ʾistiṯābiyy (الإِشْرَاطٌ اِسْتِثَابِيّ), conditioning operant, is operant conditioning. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Išrāṭuṇ ⫯adawātiyy.
  2498. ʾal-ʾIsrāˁ w-ʾal-Miʿrāǧ (الإِسْرَاء وَالمِعْرَاج) was the Night Journey (الإِسْرَاء, ʾal-ʾIsrāˁ) and (و, wa, “and”) the Stairway (or the Ascension) to Heaven (المِعْرَاج, ʾal-Miʿrāǧ) which were reportedly taken by the Prophet Muḥammad in approximately 621 A.D. According to tradition, He rode upon a horse named ʾal-Burāq (البُراق), Lightning. The Hebrew cognate and synonym is hā-bārāq (הָבָּרָק). Contrast with the glossary entry, ʾal-Barakaẗ. For more information on the angelic Lightning, see the glossary entry, Burāqīl ʾal-Malāk.
    ʾal-Burāq
  2499. ʾal-⫯Iṣlāḥ ʾal-Rasūliyy ʾal-Ǧadīd (الإِصْلَاح الرَسُولِيّ الجَدِيد), the reformation (alternatively, reform or restoration) apostolic new, is the New Apostolic Reformation.
  2500. ʾal-ʿIšq (العِشْق) is love, as with the Valley of Love in Bahá’u’lláh’s blessed Tablet, the Seven Valleys (see the glossary entry, Haft Vādī).

The White Buffalo Calf Woman is known, in the Lakota language (see the glossary entry, Lakȟótiyapi), as Pte-san win-yan. According to Lakota tradition, after manifesting in the clouds as a White Buffalo Calf, She shapeshifted into a beautiful Woman. Speculatively, the color of the buffalo may allude to her pale or radiant skin (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Bīḍaẗ ʾal-Qāmaẗ ⫯aw ʾal-Šamāliyyaẗ ⫯aw ʾal-ʿAriyān).

  2608. Jainā Dharma (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, ज़ीना धर्म) is Jainism.
    • The name of the religion translates as “natural law of the overcomer.” Jainā (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, ज़ीना) can be translated as “overcomer.” A disciple of Jainā is a Jaina (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, जैन). The word comes from the Sanskrit, jinaḥ (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, जिन), victor. Jinaḥ, in turn, can be traced to the Sanskrit verb, jayati (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, जयति), to win.
    • One of the major teachings of Jainā Dharma is ahiṃsā (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, अहिंसा), nonviolence or, literally, not striking a living being.

  2610. Jewfi or, sometimes, Jufi is a Hebrew-Arabic mixed compound word (combining stems from different languages).

Perhaps the most fascinating example is Ribbọynō ʾẠḇərāhām bẹn Mōšẹh bẹn Māyymōn (see glossary entry).

The plural forms are ʾal-kuffār (الكُفَّار), ʾal-kāfirīna (الﻛﺎﻓﺮﻳﻦَ), and ʾal-kāfirūna (الالكافرونَ). ʾal-Kāfirūna is also the one-hundred-ninth sūraẗ (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Sūraẗ) of ʾal-Qurʾân (see glossary entry). Compare with the glossary entry, Kāp̄ạriyēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə.

Kāf wa-nūn (ك وَـن) or, in Persianized Arabic, kāf va nūn (ک وَ ن, k and n), when combined (or turned into an acronym), become kūn (كون), “existence,” “the universe,“ or, literally, “the world of being.” According to Bahá’u’lláh, “... the letters B [کَاف, kāf] and E [نُون, nūn] were joined and knit together.” (Prayers and Meditations by Bahá’u’lláh. Page 84.) Since the English-language word, “be,” contains two letters, Shoghi Effendi translated kāf and nūn as, respectively, B and E. This metaphor illustrates the process of divine creation.
  2625. ʾal-Kahanūtiyyaẗ (الكَهَنُوتِيَّة), with ʾal-Kahanūtiyy (الكَهَنُوتِيّ) as the possessive or an appurtenance (“sacertodal” or “priestly”), is sacerdotalism or priestliness.

See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Hayirūfaniyy, Kōhēn-Gāḏōl hā-Mạləʾāḵə, ʾal-Maẓāhir ʾal-muqadisaẗ, and Theophany and hierophany.

  2631. ʾal-Kā⫯ināt ʾal-faḍā⫯iyyaẗ (الكائِنَات الفَضَائِيَّة), beings or creatures from space, are extraterrestrials. (The Latin word, extrā, translates as outside or beyond.) The empyrean servants which some people incorrectly refer to as extraterrestrials or, worse, aliens, are, in my view, our celestial angels, the heavenly hosts of Bahá’u’lláh. They have always been with us. ʾal-Kā⫯in ʾal-faḍā⫯iyy (الكَائِن الفَضَائِيّ) is the being from space (the extraterrestrial). See also the glossary entries, ʾal-ʾIẖtiṭāf ʾal-ġarīb, ʾal-H̱āriǧ ʾal-kawkab ʾal-⫯Araḍa, and ʾal-Taḥrīr fī ʾal-ʾitiṣāl.

Although “empath” is primarily a concept out of science fiction, I believe it is descriptive of the Archangels. I feel that they need tremendous empathy, as well as true intersubjectivity (see the glossary entry, Mā bayna ʾal-ḏawāt) in order to interact with each of our hearts. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Taʿāṭuf.
  2634. ʾal-Kā⫯ināt ʾal-Naǧmiyyaẗ (الكَائِنَات النَجْمِيَّة), beings stellar (or beings astral), are Astral Beings. ʾal-Kā⫯in ʾal-Naǧmiyy (الكَائِن النَجْمِيّ), being stellar (or being astral), is the singular form. I use these terms for the Archangels. In my opinion, as true Bodhisattvāḥ (see the glossary entry, Bodhisattva) or Servants, They occupy an intermediate position between this world and the world to come.

  2642. ʾal-Kalimaẗ ʾal-munḍawiyaẗ (الكَلِمَة المنضوية), the word affiliated (or internalized), is the hyponym. ʾal-Kalimāt ʾal-munḍawiyaẗ (الكَلِمَات المنضوية), the words affiliated (or internalized), are the hyponyms. Contrast with the glossary entry, ʾal-Farʿ fi⫯aẗ ẗakṯar ʾal-ʿumūmiyyaẗ.

Kamā Yāhwih ʾal-nnafs (كَمَا يَاهْوِه النَّفْس) is “as Yəhōwāh (i.e., YHWH or Jehovah) the breath (or the soul).” This expression refers to the fascinating speculation that YHWH (see glossary entry) is “unpronouncable,” quite literally, because it signifies the breath (Yah-weh), not a word. See also my essay and compilation on Breathing Bahá’u’lláh.
  2647. Kanadā (كَنَدَا) is, obviously, Canada (in both the English and French languages). Mūntriyāl (مُونْتْرِيَال) is Montreal (French, Montréal).

    • As a matter of personal preference, I capitalize the pronouns referring to Archangels, in the world of dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām), since I know that they are much more spiritually developed than me.

I cannot imagine ever being elevated over Bahá’u’lláh’s pure Servants, the Archangels.

    • “ Kyriarchy is best theorized as a complex pyramidal system of interlocking multiplicative social and religious structures of superordination and subordination, of ruling and oppression.... Such kyriarchal relations are still today at work in the multiplicative intersectionality of class, race, gender, ethnicity, empire, and other structures of discrimination. In short, kyriarchy is constituted as a sociocultural and religious system of dominations by intersecting multiplicative structures of oppression. The different sets of relations of domination shift historically and produce a different constellation of oppression in different times and cultures. The structural positions of subordination that have been fashioned by kyriarchal relations stand in tension with those required by radical democracy.” (Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza, Changing Horizons: Explorations in Feminist Interpretation. Minneapolis, MN: Fortress Press. 2013. Kindle edition.)

The adoption of such a secondary language will be an intermediary stage before the selection of a single world language. My own speculation is that English will, because of its widespread usage, become the international auxiliary language. The single world language will, perhaps, be a hybrid of Arabic and Persian (with a standardized grammar and phonetic spellings). See also the glossary entries, Fūlābūk, ʿĪdū, ⫯Intirlinġwā, ⫯Isbirāntū, and ʾal-Luġaẗ ʾal-kawākib.

  2961. ʾal-Luġaẗ ʾal-Linġālā (اللُغَة اللِينْغَالَا), the language Lingala, is the Lingala language.

  2968. Lumpenproletariat (lumpenproletarian, adjective) is derived from a German-French hybrid. The term was used by Karl Marx for the underclass. Lumpen is the German plural of lump (ragged or ragamuffin), i.e., the depersonalized lump of masses at the bottom of the social stratification (social inequality) system. The French, prolétariat, can be traced back to the Latin, prōlētārius. Although prōlētārius literally translates as offspring, the classist implication, in the Roman Empire, was that these downtrodden people, who did not own property, were good only as “baby factories” for future low-paid workers. The shorter word, proletariat, refers, in Marxist theory, to wage-laborers. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Brūlītāriyā.

    • Speculatively, certain affinites may be divinely ordained. Perhaps these relationships conform to an order or return not unlike the progressive Revelation of God’s Prophets. Rational and spiritual attributes return to this world, time and time again, as different human beings. Their shared mission or spiritual connections with one another, sometimes as guardian angels, might be remembered, in the minds of certain individuals, as past lives, reincarnation, or transmigration. The earthly lives of these “returning” souls can even be simultaneous, as with Bahá’u’lláh and the Báb or with Jesus, Paul, and John the Baptist.
    • Bahá’u’lláh wrote, “Strive ... to comprehend the meaning of ‘return’ which hath been so explicitly revealed in the Qur’án itself, and which none hath as yet understood. What sayest thou? If thou sayest that Muḥammad was the ‘return’ of the Prophets of old, as is witnessed by this verse, His Companions must likewise be the ‘return’ of the bygone Companions, even as the ‘return’ of the former people is clearly attested by the text of the above-mentioned verses.” (The Kitáb-i-Íqán. Page 47.)
    • the late Indian-English philosopher Roy Bhaskar conjectured on his own previous incarnations in the book, From East to West: “More particularly it is a conjugate of dual dispositions: to be embodied in successive layers of embodiment, and in particular at the physical level, over a succession of lives ....” (Roy Bhaskar, From East to West. Critical Realism – Interventions Series. New York: Routledge. Taylor & Francis Group. 2007. Kindle edition. Page 132.)
    • In the spirit of Bhaskar’s meditations, although I do not believe in reincarnation, as a Bahá’í, I personally feel deeply, in my heart, as though my soul is a “return” of the attributes of, in rough chronological order, the mystic of the interior castle Sainte Thérèse d’Ávila (see glossary entry), the king of knowers Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū (see glossary entry), the tolerant Bābā Bulhē Šāh-i Qādrī Šaṭṭārī (see glossary entry), his contemporary, the glorious Brahmarṣi Śrī Madin Kabīra Śāha (see glossary entry), the Bahá’í teacher and scholar of God’s worlds Henrietta “Emogene” Martin Hoagg (September 27ᵗʰ, 1869 - December 15ᵗʰ, 1945), the lover of reality Marian Crist Lippitt (June 30ᵗʰ, 1897 - February 5ᵗʰ, 1984), my eternal spiritual mother Elizabeth M. Thomas (December 10ᵗʰ, 1906 - January 18ᵗʰ, 1991), and the soul closer to God than his life’s vein Henry A. Weil (March 30ᵗʰ, 1909 - April 28ᵗʰ, 1984).

In my opinion, nominalism has, historically, been one of the three most influential perspectives in sociology (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-sūsiyūlūǧiyyaẗ). For the other two perspectives, see the glossary entries, ʾal-Miṯāliyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ and ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ.

    • It was a neo-Marxian movement among German humanists and social scientists in Frankfurt, Germany, which gave birth to critical social theory. The founders of this school developed a neo-Kantian type of cultural Marxism. That is to say, they applied a revised version of the German idealism of Immanuel Kant to their cultural Marxism. While Marx challenged Hegelian neo-Kantianism, the critical theorists returned to it. See the glossary entries, Ġūrġ Fīlhilm Frīdriš Hayġil and Kārl Mārks wa-Frīdriš ⫯Inġilz.
    • Some of these critical social theorists famously incorporated a variety of the psychoanalytic or depth psychological views of the well-known neo-Kantian thinker, Sigmund Freud.

    • This otherworldly formation of the Prophets and Their hosts (armies) of angels may include ʽAbdu’l-Bahá and various other angelic or spiritual souls from the Heavens, the Earth, and between them, i.e., occupying an inner-dimensional realm (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Abaʿād ʾal-ddāẖiliyyaẗ) between this world and the world to come (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin). They may also be extraterrestrial (see the glossary entry, ʾal-H̱āriǧ ʾal-kawkab ʾal-⫯Araḍa), i.e., live on other planets.
    • In the Supreme Concourse Archangels, or chalices of pure light, may work side by side with other souls. “Whoso openeth his lips in this Day and maketh mention of the name of his Lord, the hosts of Divine inspiration shall descend upon him from the heaven of My name, the All-Knowing, the All-Wise. On him shall also descend the Concourse on high, each bearing aloft a chalice of pure light.” (Baháʾuʾlláh, Gleanings from the Writings of Baháʾuʾlláh. Page 280.) “On every daring adventurer in the service of the Cause of Baháʾuʾlláh the Concourse on high shall descend, ‘each bearing aloft a chalice of pure light.’” (Baháʾuʾlláh quoted by Shoghi Effendi, Messages to America. Page 18.)

  3133. ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ (المَلَائِكَة عَلَّى), the Angels above (or the angels over), are the Most Exalted Angels (or the most exalted Beings). ʾal-Malāk ʿallaỳ (الْمَلَاك عَلَّى), the angel above (or the angel over), would be the Most Exalted Angel (or the Most Exalted Being). I use this term for the Archangels who appear during contact emancipations (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Taḥrīr fī ʾal-ʾitiṣāl). To my understanding, these beings are sometimes misidentified as strictly extraterrestrial. I personally sense that they are extremely tender, gentle, and receptive. Perhaps the reside both within and upon the cosmic spheres.
    • In my opinion, these inner-dimensional beings (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Abaʿād ʾal-ddāẖiliyyaẗ) may be able to move between our human world and their own World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin) at will. Such Archangels as the Maiden (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥūriyyaẗ) and the Angel Gabriel (see the glossary entry, Gạḇəriyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə) can contact Prophets and ordinary humans both when sleeping and awake. These Archangels seem to be capable of interacting with incarnate and discarnate souls, as seen in reports of departed souls manifesting in orbs of light.
    • I have adopted a version of the viewpoint, held by Graham Hancock and some other writers, that the beings who have had an ongoing interaction with individuals on this planet are interdimensionals, not exactly extraterrestrials. The Archangels, who may reside in a world of their own, seem to use dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Manām), near-death experiences (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ttaǧarib ʾal-ʾiqtirāb min ʾal-mawt), visions (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ru⫯yā), and fugue states (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Šarūd ʾal-tafakkakay) as portals for both spiritual and physical contact.
    • “Call out to Zion, O Carmel, and announce the joyful tidings: He that was hidden from mortal eyes is come! His all-conquering sovereignty is manifest; His all-encompassing splendour is revealed. Beware lest thou hesitate or halt. Hasten forth and circumambulate the City of God that hath descended from heaven, the celestial Kaaba round which have circled in adoration the favoured of God, the pure in heart, and the company of the most exalted angels.” (Baháʾuʾlláh, “Lawḥ-i-Karmil.” Tablets of Baháʾuʾlláh Revealed after the Kitáb-i-Aqdas. Page 4.)
    • “By ‘angels’ is meant those who, reinforced by the power of the spirit, have consumed, with the fire of the love of God, all human traits and limitations, and have clothed themselves with the attributes of the most exalted Beings [الملائكة على, ʾal-malā⫯ikaẗ ʿalaỳ, the angels above] and of the Cherubim [هذِهِ النُفُوس المُقَدَّسَة, hḏihi ʾal-nufūs ʾal-muqaddasaẗ, these souls holy, i.e., these holy souls].” (Bahá’u’lláh, The Kitáb-i-Íqán. Pages 78-79.)
    • “At the age of thirty Zoroaster receives a revelation, and during the next ten years he beholds seven visions of Ormazd [see the glossary entry, ʾAhūrā Mazdā] and the Archangels.” (Abraham Valentine Williams Jackson, Zoroaster: The Prophet of Ancient Iran. Page 50.)

  3134. ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʾal-sāqiṭaẗ (اْلمَلَائِكَة الْسَاقِطَة), angels fallen, are fallen angels. ʾal-Malāk ʾal-sāqiṭ (الْمَلَاك الْسَاقِط), angel fallen, is the fallen angel. In my opinion, fallen angels can refer either to pre-Adamites (see the glossary entry, Qabli ʾal-ʾÂdamiyyīna) or to specific human imperfections (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Naqīṣa).
  3135. ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʾal-wasīṭaẗ (المَلائِكَة الوَسِيطَة), Angels of Intermediation, are the Intermediate Angels (or Intermediate Messengers) of the Supreme Concourse (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mal⫯a ʾal-⫯Aʿlaỳ). ʾal-Malāk ʾal-wasīṭ (الْمَلَاك الوَسِيط) is the Intermediate Angel.
    • I have adopted these Arabic terms for the Intermediate Angels discussed in Unities of All Things. However, I now more commonly refer to these majestic servants of God as Archangels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ).
    • To my understanding, these extradimensional Beings lie between Earth (this world) and Heaven (the world to come).
    • ʽAbdu’l-Bahá appears, in my opinion, to refer to these Beings, and perhaps other members of the Supreme Concourse, as “divine confirmations and heavenly powers.” Archangels are, I feel, the Divine Physician’s Assistants of the human heart. My feeling is that each Archangel is a healing Vehicle for a specific divine blessing or spiritual virtue. The fact that we are in this world to develop virtues is, I feel, another way of saying that we are here to establish relationships with Archangels. By encountering the Archangels, the Messengers, or the pure Channels of the attributes and virtues, we can acquire them. Rather than asserting that angels are divine confirmations, I would say that Angels are divine Confirmations.
    • “The Holy Spirit will strengthen them [pure souls] and the hosts of the Supreme Concourse will render them victorious and the angels of Abha will come in succession. By angels is meant the divine confirmations and heavenly powers. Angels are also those holy souls who have severed attachment to the earthly world, who are free from the fetters of self and passion and who have attached their hearts to the Divine Realm and the Merciful Kingdom. They are of the Kingdom, heavenly; they are of the Merciful One, divine. They are the manifestations of the divine grace and the dawns of spiritual bounty.” (ʽAbdu’l-Bahá, Tablets of ʽAbdu’l-Bahá ‘Abbás. Page 509.)
    • An apparently newer translation, “The hosts of the Company on high will defend them [consecrated souls], and the angels of the Abhá Paradise, in continuous succession, will come down to their aid. The meaning of ‘angels’ is the confirmations of God and His celestial powers. Likewise angels are blessed beings who have severed all ties with this nether world, have been released from the chains of self and the desires of the flesh, and anchored their hearts to the heavenly realms of the Lord. These are of the Kingdom, heavenly; these are of God, spiritual; these are revealers of God’s abounding grace; these are dawning-points of His spiritual bestowals.” (ʽAbdu’l-Bahá, Selections from the Writings of ʽAbdu’l-Bahá. Page 81.)

  3136. ʾal-Malāk (الْمَلَاك), with ʾal-malā⫯ikaẗ (المَلائِكَة) as the plural form, is angel (or messenger). The root is la⫯k (لأك), to send as a messenger.
    • The word, ʾal-malāk, is related to ʾal-malik (المَلِك) or ʾal-mulk (المُلْك), dominion or kingdom. ʾal-Malākī (الْمَلَاكي or, without the short vowel-points, الملاكي) and ʾal-malā⫯ikiyy (المَلَائِكِيّ) are “angelic.” Guramuhkī Punjabi script and Hiṃdī for angelic, loanwords from Arabic, are both malākī (Guramuhkī Punjabi script, ਮਲਾਕੀ, or Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, मलाकी).
    • “Over thousands of years, angel names have evolved in spelling, meaning and use within religions, mysticism and magic, where the name of an angel is thought important in order to invoke angelic help.” (“Angel Names: Names of Angels.” Angels and Ghosts: Exploring Ghost & Spirit Phenomena. Louis Charles, publisher. Retrieved on July 22, 2014.)

    • “... he [God] will give his angels charge over thee, To keep thee in all thy ways.” (Psalms 91:11. American Standard Version. 1901.)
    • “See that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, that in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father who is in heaven.” (Jesus, quoted in Matthew 18:10. American Standard Version. 1901.)
    • “... when he [Mark] knocked at the door of the gate, a maid came to answer, named Rhoda. And when she knew Peter’s voice, she opened not the gate for joy, but ran in, and told that Peter stood before the gate. And they said unto her, Thou art mad. But she confidently affirmed that it was even so. And they said, It is his angel.” (Acts 12:13-15. American Standard Version. 1901.)

In my opinion, an honorary monarch should be popularly selected on the basis of personal heroism or sainthood. The monarchy should not be hereditary. Compare with the glossary entries, ʾal-Milkiyyaẗ ʾal-ddustūriyyaẗ, ʾal-Malakiyyaẗuṇ ʾal-ddustūriyyaẗuṇ. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Malakiyyaẗ and ʾal-Mulūk.

A painting by William Blake (وِلِيَام بْلَيْك, Wilyām Blayk), 1757-1827, bears that name. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Malāk min ʾal-Wuǧūd ʾal-⫯Ilhiyy.
  3143. ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ra⫯īsiyy (الْمَلَاك الرَئِيسِيّ), angel superior (alternatively, main, principal, or chief), is a term for Archangel. ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʾal-Ra⫯īsiyyaẗ (المَلَائِكَة الرَئِيسِيَّة), angels superior (alternatively, main, principal, or chief), and ʾal-Ru⫯asāˁ ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ (الرؤساء المَلَائِكَة), superiors (or chiefs) of the angels, would be Archangels.
  3144. ʾal-Malākūt (المَلَكُوتُ) is the Angelic Realm, Angelhood, or, as the Arabic term is commonly translated in Bahá’í sources, the Kingdom. The Hebrew cognate and synonym for “kingdom” is hā-mạləḵūṯ (Hebrew, הָמַלְכוּת). See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Malāk, ʾal-Malākūt ʾal-⫯Abhā, and ʾal-Malākūt ʾal-⫯Asmāˁ w-ʾal-Ṣifāt.

They can also be called Preceptor Angels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Muʿallim).

  3148. Malayaḷaṃ (Malayaḷaṃ, മലയാളം), with my own Romanization using the system adopted by Library of Congress and the American Library Association, is a language used in India. Malayāḷam and Malayam are other transliterations of the word. The Arabic form is ʾal-Mālāyālāmiyaẗ (المالايالامية).

With three cognates, Malikī ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (مَلِكِي الله الْمَلَاك), My King is God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation, hā-Mạlək (Hebrew, הָמַלְכּ) and ʾal-malik (المَلِك), both used here in the possessive case, translate as the king, the sovereign, or the ruler. Ángelos Malchiḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Μαλχιήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. He was allegedly a preceptor Angel (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Muʿallim) to Elijah (Hebrew, אֱלִיָּהוּ, ʾĔliyyāhū).

    • To my understanding, through the wormhole (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṯaqaba) of the dream state, the human soul enters into the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin) of the healing Archangels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ). However, the ability to accurately perceive that perceive that world may be limited by one’s imperfections. All dreams are contact experiences, but not all contact experiences are dreams.
    • We all become acquainted with the Archangels in our dreams. If we remember these divine Beings, if They seem familiar to us, or if (like the writers and mythologizers of old) we can even name Them, we may be drawing upon our dreams and similar visionary states. Perhaps the inner relationships which we now develop with these Archangels will even continue into the glorious world beyond. Going to sleep is a sacred act. My nightly “baptisms” have, for me, become among the most anticipated events in life.
    • “When thou desirest and yearnest for meeting in the world of vision; at the time when thou art in perfect fragrance and spirituality, wash thy hands and face, clothe thyself in clean robes, turn toward the court of the Peerless One, offer prayer to Him and lay thy head upon the pillow. When sleep cometh, the doors of revelation shall be opened and all thy desires shall become revealed.” (ʽAbdu’l-Bahá, Tablets of ʽAbdu’l-Bahá ʿAbbás. Page 104.)
    • “As to what thou hast seen in the dream, concerning the letter which reached thee from me, and angels were enclosed in it and they surrounded thee: Know thou verily, that letter is this glorious writing whereby I address thee; and, verily, this is full of angels of confirmation from the Kingdom of God and they will assist thee to serve the Cause of God in the vineyard of God.” (ʽAbdu’l-Bahá, Tablets of ʽAbdu’l-Bahá ʿAbbás. Page 604.)
    • “The human heart resembleth a mirror. When this is purified human hearts are attuned and reflect one another, and thus spiritual emotions are generated. This is like the world of dreams when man is detached from things which are tangible and experienceth those of the spirit. What amazing laws operate, and what remarkable discoveries are made! And it may even be that detailed communications are registered... ” (Selections from the Writings of ʽAbdu’l-Bahá. Page 108.)

The Koinḗ, or Common, Greek (New Testament) word for trespass is paráptōma (παράπτωμα).
    • In a Bahá’í doctrinal context, however, a recognition of authority (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Sulṭān and ʾal-Waṣī), appears to be more important than developing a properly nuanced understanding of the complex concept of ʾal-ʿiṣmaẗ: “Apart from the question of infallibility, there is the matter of authority..... Infallibility is a profound spiritual concept inherent in the Bahá’í Writings. In meditating upon the relevant passages, the believers [Bahá’ís] will naturally reach their own understanding of the subject.” (Department of the Secretariat to the Universal House of Justice, an excerpt from a letter, dated April 7, 2008, written to the Bahá’ís residing in ʾIyrān. Translated from the original Persian.)
    • Infallibility, in my view, is moral. In an ⫰Islāmic context, maʿṣūm can refer to an individual who does not sin (Arabic, ẖaṭa⫯). A similar view of infallibility is used by the Roman Catholic Church. The Pope is considered to be morally infallible when he speaks ex cathedrā (Latin, literally, from the chair). However, speaking ex cathedrā is very rare. Neither Pope Benedict nor Pope Francis have chosen to issue this type of edict. See the glossary entry, Bi-ʾal-Muqtaḍaỳ ʾal-sulṭaẗ.

  3319. ʾal-Mawdāliyyaẗ (المَوْدَالِيَّة), with ʾal-Mawdāliyy (المَوْدَالِيّ) as the possessive or an appurtenance, is an Indo-European loanword for modalism. The English-language term comes from the medieval Latin, modālis, which is derived from the Latin, modus (measure or manner). The Indo-European root is med- (to measure). Theologically, modalism refers to various doctrinal positions on the divine Nature. Modalists are substantially (that is to say, regarding divine Substance) unitarians (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Muwaḥḥid). They believe, however, that God appears, manifests, or operates in different modes, aspects, or measures. In ʾal-⫯Islām (see glossary entry), the Alevîlik (see the glossary entries, Alevîlik and Hak Muhammed Ali ve) have a modalist theology. In Christianity, modalism takes three major forms:
    • First, in modalistic monarchianism (also called Sabellianism, from its promoter, Sabellius, third century A.D.), God has three “faces” (Greek, πρόσωπα, prósōpa) of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (see the glossary entry, Patéras ton gio hágio pneúma). He is not a Trinity. The Arabic language term for Sabellianism is ʾal-Sābīliyāniyaẗ (السابيليانية).
    • Second, in dynamic monarchianism or adoptionism, historically a minority position, Jesus became a mode, aspect, or measure of God during His earthly Ministry or after His heavenly Ascension. The Arabic-language term is Yuqāran maʿa ʾal-ttabanniy (يقارن مَعَ التَّبَنِّي), compares with adoption.
    • Finally, in Oneness Pentecostalism (see the glossary entry, Pentecostalism), also called Jesus-only Pentecostalism (يَسُوع فَقَطْ, Yasūʿa faqaṭ, Jesus only), the Father and the Holy Spirit are different modes, aspects, or measures of Jesus Christ as the one and only God. Many Oneness Pentecostals contend that anyone who has not been specifically baptized in “Jesus’ Name only” (namely, the vast majority of self-identified Christians) has not received spiritual salvation (see the glossary entry, Sōtēría). This position, which is much closer to modalistic monarchianism than to dynamic monarchianism, originated with Frank John Ewart (1876-1947). Globally, the largest Jesus-only denomination is the United Pentecostal Church International (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Kanīsaẗ ʾʾal-ʿAnṣaraẗ ʾal-Muttaḥidaẗ ʾal-Duwaliyyaẗ).

In Turkey, Rūmī is frequently referred to as Mevlâna (the Modern Turkish spelling of Mawlānā or Mavlānā). The Arabic version is: Muḥammad Ǧalāl ʾal-Ddīn Rūmiyy (مَوْلَانَا جَلَال الدِيين مُحَّمَّد رُومِيّ). This is the translation of his name: ʾal-Ǧalāl (الجلال‌) is brilliance or splendor. See the glossary entries, ʾad-Dīn and Muḥammad. Rūmī (Persian, رومی) is “Anatolian” (someone associated with Asia Minor).

He was born in 1923 and may have been executed around 1979. ʾal-Mawlawiyyaẗ shares the same root with ʾal-Mawlaỳ (see glossary entry). One of the movement’s most distinctive practices is ʾal-samaʿ (see glossary entry).

The word is taken from the Hebrew verb, dārạš (Hebrew, דּמִדְרָשִׁים), to seek, to search, to demand, or to require. The term, hā-midrāš, refers to homiletic commentaries on hā-TạNạ″Ḵə (see glossary entry). They were written during the period of 400 A.D.-1200 A.D.
  3411. miʿẹḇẹr lə-hā-Məṣiyʾūṯiyūṯ hā-Diyʾālẹqəṭiy (Hebrew, מִעֶבֶר לְהָמְצִיאוּתִיוּת הָדִּיאָלֶקְטִי), beyond to the Realism dialectical, is my Hebrew-language translation of Dialectical metaRealism.
  3412. ʾal-Miftāḥ (المِفْتَاح), with ʾal-mafātīḥ (المَفَاتِيح) as the plural form, is the key. These terms are used in a variety of Islamicate (see glossary entry) contexts, such as, ʾal-Mafātīḥ ʾal-Ġaybaẗ (المفاتيح الغيبة), the Keys to the Unseen, and ʾal-mafātīḥ ʾal-ʾabwāb (المفاتيح الابواب), the keys to the gates. In a non-Islamicate context, Whitley Strieber (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Zuwwār) uses the term, “the key,” to describe a particular spiritual path. Moreover, taken and returned keys were the central feature of my contact experience with Brennan (see the glossary entry, Brīnān ʾal-Malāk). See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Ġaybaẗ and ʾal-Taʿāwun.

  3415. Mihr Bābā (Persian, مِهْر بَابَا, Mihr Bābā; ʾUrdū, مِہر بَابَا Mihr Bābā; Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, महर बाबा, Mahara Bābā; Gujarātī, મહાર બાબા, Mahāra Bābā; Ōṛi⫯ā, ମହାର ବାବା, Mahāra Bābā; Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਮਹਰ ਬਾਬਾ, Mahara Bābā; Kannaḍa, ಮಹಾರ್ ಬಾಬಾ, Mahār Bābā; Bengali, মোহরানা বাবা, Mōharānā Bābā; Tamiḻ, மஹார பாபா, Mahāra Pāpā; Telugu, మహార బాబా, Mahāra Bābā; or Malayaḷaṃ, മഹാര ബാബാ, Mahāra Bābā), which is usually Anglicized as “Meher Baba,” lived 1894-1969. He was among the more fascinating Indian gurus of the twentieth century. In 1954, he claimed to be the avatar (see the glossary entry, Avatāra) of the age.
    • Since Zoroastrian-born Meher Baba’s parents emigrated from ʾIyrān to India, he was not a Pārsī (Persian, پَارْسِی, or in Gujarātī, પારસી, Pārasī), a Persian or member of an established Persian Zoroastrian community in India. (Gujarātī is now the majority Pārsī language.) Meher Baba was born Marwān (or, more correctly, Marvān) Šahriyār-i ʾIyrānī (Persian, مَرْوَان شَهْرِیَارِ اِیرَانِی). The Persian name, Meher Baba, which was given to him by his earliest disciples, is Mihr (see the glossary entry, Miṯra), Persian for “lovingkindness” or “compassion,” and Bābā, Persian for “father” or “daddy.” See the glossary entries, Bābā and Gujarātī.
    • Meher Baba also established Ṣūfism Reoriented, a breakaway organization from the Universal Ṣūfism of Hazrat Inayat Khan (see the glossary entry, Ḥaḍrat ʿInāyat H̱‎an). Khan, directly, and perhaps Baba, indirectly, were related to the Čištī (see glossary entry) Ṣūfiyy (see glossary entry) tradition.
    • For what it’s worth, I respect Meher Baba. Periodically, I will pray for his departed soul. He appears, on many levels, to have been a sincere and kind-hearted individual, but I am obviously not one of his followers.
    Compare with the glossary entry, Mettā bhāvanā. See also the glossary entry, Šāh.

This event was, in my opinion, an example of reproductive intervention (perhaps genetic engineering) by Angels. It should not be confused with the specifically Roman Catholic doctrine of the Immaculate Conception (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥabalu bilā Danas).

I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you: howbeit he that sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these speak I unto the world.

The words could, literally, be translated, respectively, as the one who says: “Lend me your ears” and “Lend me your ears” (quoting from Mark Anthony in William Shakespeare’s play, Julius Cæser). Each of these words has the same Semitic root as ʾal-duʿā (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Duʿā) and ʾal-daʿwaẗ (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Daʿwaẗ ).

    • Scientifically and academically, modern-day homeopathy is medical quackery, but an empirical application of the principle of similars may be observed in vaccination. The Universal House of Justice has emphasized that it does not want the quotation provided below (found in Extracts from The Writings Concerning Health, Healing, and Nutrition, number 83) to be disseminated in isolation from other Bahá’í texts on medicine. Significantly, Shoghi Effendi said that the validity of a “biochemical homeopathy,” referred to by ’Abdu’l-Bahá, will be discovered “in the future.”
    • “One of the friends [Bahá’ís] of Persia wrote to Shoghi Effendi and asked this question: ‘Is it true that ’Abdu’l-Bahá has said that biochemical homeopathy, which is a form of food medicine, is in conformity with the Bahá’í medical concept?’ The beloved Guardian’s [Shoghi Effendi’s] reply to this question in a letter dated 25th November, 1944 was as follows: ‘This statement is true, and the truth thereof will be revealed in the future.’ (The question and answer are translated from the Persian.)
      “The Universal House of Justice has also asked us to inform you that it does not wish the above statement to be circulated in isolation from the many and varied other texts in the [Bahá’í] Writings on medicine.

Verily! ʾAllꞌah will not change the good condition of a people as long as they do not change their state of goodness themselves (by committing sins and by being ungrateful and disobedient to ʾAllꞌah). But when ʾAllꞌah wills a people’s punishment, there can be no turning back of it, and they will find besides Him no protector.” (ʾal-Qurʾân 13:11, Hilāliyy-H̱ān [هِلَالِيّ ـ خَان] translation.)

    • By accepting the possibility of a naïve realism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ ʾal-sāḏaǧah), this fallacy neglects the sociology of knowledge (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿIlmu ʾal-⫯iǧtimāʿa ʾal-maʿrifaẗ), namely, the social and historical contexts of knowledge production.

    • It is referred to by the late Indian-English philosopher Roy Bhaskar (see the glossary entry, Rāma Rôya Bhāskara).
    • When committing the epistemic fallacy, which distinguishes some types of the social idealist paradigm (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Miṯāliyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ) from critical realism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ ʾal-naqdiyyaẗ), one assumes that entities cannot exist apart from one’s knowledge of them. Statements about being or existence are misconstrued as statements about knowledge.
    • “For (a) it [transcendental realism] stands opposed to the empirical realism of subjective idealism and the conceptual realism of objective idealism alike, (b) pinpointing their common error in the reduction [reductionism] of being to a human attribute—experience or reason—in two variants of the ‘epistemic fallacy’ and (c) revealing their systematic interdependence—in that epistemologically, objective idealism pre-supposes the reified facts of subjective idealism and ontologically, subjective idealism presupposes the hypostatized ideas of objective idealism; so that upon inspection of their respective fine structures they may be seen to bear the same Janus-faced [dual or dualistic] legend: empirical certainty/conceptual truth.” (Roy Bhaskar, Reclaiming Reality: A Critical Introduction to Contemporary Philosophy. New York: Taylor & Francis Group. 2011. Pages 102-103.)

  3554. ʾal-Muḥāfaẓaẗ ʾal-ddīniyyaẗ (المُحَافَظَة الدِّينِيَّة), conservatism religious, is religious conservatism.
    • Clinging to religious tradition has resulted in the persecutions of the Prophets and Their followers.
    • Sadly, religiously conservative perspectives are now wreaking havoc across the globe and poisoning the human heart through the right-wing religious media: “Religious conservatism, particularly in England, constitutes indeed a serious obstacle which the friends [Bahá’ís] have to meet when spreading the Message, and not until such an obstacle has been completely removed can the Cause effectively spread and establish itself in the West. This religious conservatism is in many respects far more dangerous and more difficult to wipe out than the religious apathy which is so rapidly invading all classes of society.” (Shoghi Effendi, Unfolding Destiny: The Messages from the Guardian of the Bahá’í Faith to the Bahá’í Community of the British Isles. Pages 433-434.)

    • In my view, “traditional morality” has little or nothing to do with the demireality (see the glossary entries, ʾal-ʾInšiṭār, ʾal-Niṣf ʾal-wāqiʿ, and ʾal-Šiqāq) of contemporary American social and cultural conservatism. I believe that critical realism and the cosmic envelope (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ġilāf ʾal-dunyawiyy) of metaReality come much closer.
    • According to Shoghi Effendi: “On the question of sex the Bahá’ís are, in most of their fundamental views, in full agreement with the upholders of traditional morality.” Shoghi Effendi, Unfolding Destiny: The Messages from the Guardian of the Bahá’í Faith to the Bahá’í Community of the British Isles.

    • The word English-language word hallucinogen, from hallucination, is a compound of the Latin alūcinātus, “deceive,” and the later Latin, hallucinatus, “to wander,” with the Greek genḗs (γενής), “producer of.”
    • The term psychedelic is taken from the Greek noun, psychḗ (ψυχή), “soul” (alternatively, “mind” or “self”), and the Greek verb, dēleín (δηλείν), “to manifest,” “to make visible,” or “to clarify.”
    • “Concerning the so-called ‘spiritual’ virtues of the hallucinogens ... spiritual stimulation should come from turning one’s heart to Bahá’u’lláh, and not through physical means such as drugs and agents.” (From a letter, dated April 15, 1965, written by the Universal House of Justice to the National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá’ís of the United States, Lights of Guidance. Number 1183.)

His full name and title was ⫯Abū ʾal-Qāsim Muḥammad ʾIbn ʿAbd ʾAllꞌah ʾibn ʿAbd ʾal-Muṭṭalib ʾibn Hāšim (ابو القاسم مُحَمَّد بن عبد الله بن عبد المطلب‎ بن هاشم). See the glossary entry, ʾIbn. Taken out of historical context, some of the actions taken during the Prophet’s Ministry might appear rather drastic. However, He was living in a rugged tribal environment. As His divine Name implies, He should be praised for His actions. The Spirit of the Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement (see glossary entry), chronicled during the ⫰Islāmic Dispensation, was, in my opinion, the divine Attributes of His Praiseworthy Presence, the Prophet of ʾal-Qurʾân (see glossary entry).

Nāḥiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, נָחִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), at Rest (or Restful) in ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Nakhiel (alternatively, Nakiel or Nachiel) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). Nāḥ (Hebrew, נָח) is at rest, restful, to rest, or to relax. Murīḥ fī ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (مُرِيح فِي الله الْمَلَاك), Restful in God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Nachiḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ναχιήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  3773. Nāḥōriyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, נָחוֹרִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Hot in ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Nahoriel (or Nahuriel) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). hā-Nāḥōr (Hebrew, הָנָחוֹר) is hoarse, dry, hot, or snorting.

  3775. Nakaśāla (Bengali, নকশাল) is Naxalite, a designation for a Maoist movement in India.
  3776. Naʿma wa-lā (نَعمَ وَلَا), balhi va nah (Persian, بله و نه), ǧī hāṉ [“ṉ” indicating a final undotted “n” in ʾUrdū] ʾawra nahīṉ (ʾUrdū, جی ہاں اورَ نہیں), and hāṃ aura nahīṃ (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, हां और नहीं) are “yes and no.”
  3777. Nāmībiyā (نَامِيبِيَا) is Namibia.
  3778. Namo Amitābha Buddha (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, नमो अमिताभ बुद्ध) translates as “I pay homage to the Awakened One of Infinite Light.” Namo Amitābha (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, नमो अमिताभ) is, “I pay homage to the Infinite Light.” They are both Buddhist mantras (see the glossary entry, Mantra). Amitābha (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, अमिताभ) is the name given to a Buddha (see the glossary entry, Buddha). The Indo-European word, Amitābha, is a false cognate with the Arabic word, ⫯Abhā (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Abhā). However, the fact that both words can refer to light is a fascinating coincidence. See also the glossary entries, Jōdobukkyō and ʾĂmiyəṭəʾābəhəʾạ hā-Mạləʾāḵə.
  3779. Namāz (نماز), or Namāzān (نمازان) in the Persian plural form, refers literally to prostration. The word is Persian and ʾUrdū for ʾal-Ṣalāt (see glossary entry).

  3782. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ (النَمُوذَج), with ʾal-namāḏaǧ (النَمَاذَج) or ʾal-namāḏiǧ (النَماذِج) as the plural form, is paradigm, form, model, example, sample, exemplar, or type. ʾal-Namūḏaǧiyy (النَمُوذَجيّ), the possessive or an appurtenance, is paradigmatic, exemplary, or typical.
    • ʾal-Namūḏaǧ is a common Arabic-language translation of paradigm or exemplar, as used in the work of philosopher of science and physicist Thomas Samuel Kuhn (توما صَمُوئِيل كون, Tūmā Ṣamū⫯īl Kūn), 1922–1996.
    • In The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (1962 and revised in 1970), Kuhn used the term paradigm for dominant puzzle-solving models or mechanisms in the sciences. In a postscript to the revised edition, he suggested, unsuccessfully for the most part, replacing “paradigm” with “exemplar.” Kuhn’s concept has been influential in the field of social (sociological) theory.

  3783. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-⫯asliyy (النَمُوذَج الأَصْلِيّ), form (or model) original, is archetype. ʾal-Namāḏiǧ ʾal-⫯asliyyaẗ (النَماذِج الأَصْلِيَّة), models original, are archetypes.
  3784. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-biy⫯aẗ ʾal-takāmuliyyaẗ (النَمُوذَج البِيئَة التَكَامُلِيَّة), the model of the milieu integrative, is the integrative milieu model (a form of psychotherapy).
  3785. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-⫯iʿāqaẗ (النَمُوذَج الإِعَاقَة), with ʾal-namāḏaǧ ʾal-⫯iʿāqaẗ (النماذج الإِعَاقَة), in the plural form, is the model of disability. See the glossary listings below as illustrations.
  3786. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-ʿamaliyyaẗ ʾal-taġyīr Firǧīnyā Sātīr (النَمُوذَج العَمَلِيَّة التَغْيِير فِرْجِينيَا سَاتِير), the model of the process of change of Virginia Satir, is my Arabic-language rendering of the Virginia Satir Change Process Model. It was developed by Virginia Satir (فِرْجِينيَا سَاتِير, Firǧīnyā Sātīr), 1916-1988 A.D.
  3787. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-⫯iʿāqaẗ ʾal-⫯aqalliyyaẗ (النَمُوذَج الإِعَاقَة الأقَلِّيَّة), the model of disability minority, is my Arabic-language translation of the minority-group model of disability.
  3788. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-⫯iʿāqaẗ ʾal-ḥuqūqaẗ (النَمُوذَج الإِعَاقَة الحُقُوقَة), the model of disability of rights, is my Arabic-language translation of the rights-based model of disability.
  3789. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-⫯iʿāqaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ (النَمُوذَج الإِعَاقَة الاجْتِمَاعِيَّة), the model of disability social, is the social model of disability (syntax modified from the originals). It is one of the dominant frameworks for describing disability by disabled individuals, clinicians, and researchers.
    • The social model of disability develops a relativist (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Nisbiyyaẗ) or social constructionist (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Binā⫯iyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ) approach to disability (see the glossary entries, ʾal-ʿĀhaẗ and al-⫯Iʿāqaẗ), through epistemology (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ ʾal-maʿrifaẗ), and an ontologically (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿIlmu ʾal-wuǧūd) realist (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ) approach to impairment (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʾIʿtilāl). The model is, therefore, compatible with critical realism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ ʾal-naqdiyyaẗ). Therefore, impairment is relative reality (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Nisbiyyaẗ). Disability is demireality (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʾInšiṭār). Emancipation is copresence (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Waḥidaẗ ʾal-wuǧūd). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ ʾal-wuǧūdī.
    • “The so-called social model of disability shares some of the central concerns of a social constructionist perspective.... For example, the vocabulary of disability is not widely shared, as can be seen by the many epithets available for general use as different groups try to exercise political power through their choice of language in the debate.... [One writer] argues that ‘The social model of disability draws upon a realist philosophical approach which argues that some things (such as impairments) exist independently of the way in which they are socially constructed,’ ... Impairment might then be said to belong in the ‘real’ world while disability occupies a less certain space somewhere beyond language.” (Alex McClimens, “From vagabonds to Victorian values: The social construction of a disability identity” in Learning Disability: A Life Cycle Approach to Valuing People. Gordon Grant, Peter Goward, Malcolm Richardson, and Paul Ramcharan, editors. New York: Open University Press. 2005. Page 43.)

  3794. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-⫯iʿāqaẗ ʾal-tāhīliyaẗ (النَمُوذَج الإِعَاقَة التَأْهِيليَة), the model of disability rehabilitative, is my Arabic-language translation of the rehabilitation model of disability.

It has been proposed by Patrick J. Devlieger (بَاتْرِيك جَاي دِفْلِيجِر, Bātrīk Ǧāy Diflīǧir) among others (see Patrick J. Devlieger, University of Leuven and University of Illinois at Chicago, “Generating a cultural model of disability.” Presented at the 19th Congress of the European Federation of Associations of Teachers of the Deaf, October 14-16, 2005.). See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-⫯iʿāqaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ and ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-ʾiʿāqaẗ ʾal-ṭibbiyy.
  3796. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-ʾiʿāqaẗ ʾal-ṭibbiyy (النَمُوذَج الإِعَاقَة الطِبِّيّ), the model of disability medical, is the medical model of disability. See also the glossary entrues, ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-⫯iʿāqaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ and ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-⫯iʿāqaẗ ʾal-ṯṯaqāfiyyaẗ.
  3797. ʾal-Namūḏaǧiyyaẗ ʾal-ʿaṣabiyyaẗ (النَمُوذَجِيَّة العَصَبِيَّة), the typical (or exemplary) neurological, is my Arabic-language translation of neurotypical.
  3798. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-miṯāliyy (النَمُوذَج المِثَالِيّ), model ideal, is ideal type. See also the glossary entry, Idealtypus.
  3799. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-maṯāliyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ (النَمُوذَج المِثَالِيَّة الاجْتِمَاعِيَّة), the paradigm idealism social, is the social idealist paradigm. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Miṯāliyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ.
  3800. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-Mīnīsūtā (النماذج المينيسوتا), the model of Minnesota, is the Minnesota model. It refers to an approach to alcoholism treatment which was developed at Hazelden (هَازلْدِن, Hāzildin) in Center City (المَدِينَة المُرَكَّزِيَّة, ʾal-Madīnaẗ ʾal-Murakkaziyyaẗ, the city central), Minnesota (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wilāyaẗ Mīnīsūtā). The model was originally inspired by Alcoholics Anonymous (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mušrūbāt ʾal-ʾKuḥūliyyaẗ ʾal-Maǧhūl). Today, Hazelden treats individuals with a variety of substance addictions (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Idmān ʿilaỳ ʾal-muẖadirāt).
  3801. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ min ʾal-zuhūr, w-ʾal-sababiyyaẗ, w-ʾal-kiyānāt ʾal-ḏāt ʾal-ṣilaẗ, w-ʾal-nniẓām (النَمُوذَج مِنْ الظُهُور، وَالسَبَبِيَّة، وَالكِيَانَات الذَات الصِلَة، والنِّظَام) is, literally, the model of (or from) the emergence (or the appearance), and the causal (or the provoking), and the entities same (alternatively, self or essence) connection, and the system. It is my Arabic-language translation of the ECPRES Model. ECPRES is an acronym for emergent (E), causal powers (CP), related entities (RE), and system (S). This critical-realist model was developed by Philip Gorski (فِيلِيب غُورْسْكِيّ, Fīlīb Ġūrskiyy).
  3802. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-muʿāmalāt lil-ʾittiṣāl (النَمُوذَج المُعَامَلَات لِلَاِتِّصَال), the model of the procedures to (or for) communication (or contact), is the transactional model of communication.
  3803. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-sūsiyūlūǧiyyaẗ (النماذج السُوسِيِولِوجِيَّة), the paradigm sociological, is the sociological paradigm. ʾal-Sūsiyūlūǧiyyaẗ (السُوسِيِولِوجِيَّة) is an obvious Indo-European cognate for sociological.
    • Historically, there have, in my opinion, been three influential perspectives in Western sociology. They are social realism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ), nominalism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Maḏhabu ʾal-falsafiyy min ʾal-⫯ismāniyyaẗ), and social idealism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Miṯāliyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ). Social realists contend that the social world is substantially real. Nominalists or particularists (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʾal-Muʿayãniyaẗ) claim that groups are conventional categories of distinct human actors. Social idealists, who occupy a middle-range position, argue that the social world is ideational, mental, conceptual, or conversational (linguistic). Of the three, social idealism is, unfortunately in my view, the dominant paradigm.
    • In my opinion, each of these three perspectives can be distinctly defined. For example, combining idealism with nominalism would result in the unusual idea that each particular consists of consciousness. In such a case, consciousness itself would become simply a useful convention, not a universal. With this view in mind, Max Weber (see the glossary entry, Māks Faybir) was a German idealist (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Miṯāliyyaẗ ʾal-⫯Almāniyyaẗ), not, as frequently claimed, a nominalist.
    • Contrary to the views of George Ritzer (born, 1940), sociology is not, in my view, a multiple-paradigm science: “There is some support in the literature for the tripartite differentiation of sociology into factist, definitionist, and behaviorist paradigms.” (George Ritzer, “Sociology: A Multiple Paradigm Science.” The American Sociologist. Washington, D.C.: American Sociological Association. Volume 10. Number 3. August, 1975. Page 156-167.) The paradigm is idealism.
    • Kenneth Morrison has a different typology: “... by the end of the [nineteenth] century, three dominant philosophies had come to the forefront during the development of classical social theory. These were the philosophies of idealism, empiricism, and positivism, and what is important to note is that each of these philosophies influenced the development of social thought and had an enormous impact on nineteenth century social theory as a whole.” (Kenneth Morrison, Marx, Durkheim, Weber: Formations of Modern Social Thought. Second edition. Thousand Oaks, CA: SAGE Publications. 2006. Kindle edition.)

  3804. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-taḥawwul min ʾal-našāṭ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyy (النَمُوذَج التَحَوُّل مِنْ النَشَاط الاِجْتِمَاعِيّ), the model transformation of (or from) activity social, is the transformational model of social activity (in Bhaskarian critical realism).
  3805. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-taḥwalu (النَمُوذَج التحول) is paradigm shift (or paradigm transformation). The original English-language term was popularized through the work of Thomas Kuhn. See the glossary entry, ʾal-Namūḏaǧ.
  3806. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-tatawwur ʾal-ʿimāraẗ ʾal-mu⫯assarāt (النَمُوذَج التَطَوُّر العِمَارَة المُؤَسَّسَات), the model of the evolution of architecture (or structure) organizational, is my Arabic-language translation of the model of enterprise architecture evolution. It was developed by Ayed Said Alwadain (عَايِض سَعِيد الوَدَاعِين, ʿĀyiḍ Saʿīd ʾal-Wadāʿīn).
  3807. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-ṭawār⫯i ʾal-rrūḥiyy (النَمُوذَج الطَوارِئ الرُّوحِيّ), the model of emergency spiritual, is the model of spiritual emergency. In this model, the husband-and-wife team of Stanislav and Christina Grof juxtaposed the concept of spiritual emergency (الطَوارِئ الرُّوحِيّ, ʾal-ṭawār⫯i ʾal-rrūḥiyy) with their concept of spiritual emergence (النُّشُوء الرُّوحِيّ, ʾal-nnušūˁ ʾal-rrūḥiyy).
  3808. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ tisʿaẗ ʿašara ʾal-⫯abaʿād min ʾal-ʿawālim ʾal-mutaʿaddidaẗ (النَمُوذَج تِسْعَة عَشَرَ الأَبْعاد مِنْ العَوَالِم المُتَعَدِّدة), the paradigm (or model) of nine ten dimensions of (or from) the worlds multiple, is the nineteen-dimensional many-worlds paradigm. This term refers to The Unicentric Paradigm (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-Waḥīd ʾal-Markaz).
  3809. ʾal-Namūḏaǧ ʾal-Waḥīd ʾal-Markaz (النَمُوذَج الوَحِيد المَرْكَز) is a fairly precise translation of The Unicentric Paradigm into Arabic (literally, the paradigm of the unity of the center or the paradigm of concentric unity).
    • ʾal-Waḥīd ʾal-Markaz (الوَحِيد المَرْكَز) is unicentric (literally, the unity of the center) in Arabic. ʾal-Markaz (المَرْكَز) is the center.
    • This perspective, along with Dialectical metaRealism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ǧadaliyyaẗ ʾal-ttilwiyyaẗ ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ) as a whole, proposes to shift social theory from the dominant social idealist paradigm (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Miṯāliyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ) to a social realist paradigm (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ).
    • The Unicentric Paradigm challenges the false trichotomy between the extraterrestrial hypothesis (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Farrḍiyyaẗ ʾal-ẖāriǧ ʾal-kawkab ʾal-⫯araḍa), the interdimensional hypothesis (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Farrḍiyyaẗ muštarak bayna ʾal-⫯abʿād), and the chrononaut hypothesis (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Farrḍiyyaẗ ʾal-ʿubūr ʾal-zamin). All of them are true. In my opinion, however, the Beings who are in constant contact with us are not, at least for the most part, extraterrestrials (in the ordinary sense).

Nạḥəmān apparently refers to Rạbbiy Nạḥəmān or Rebbe Nachman (see the glossary entry, Riybōnō šẹl ʿŎlām). Uman (Ukranian, Умань, Uman′, my own ISO Romanization from the Ukrainian), in the nation of Ukraine, is the city where Nạḥəmān died. See also the glossary entry, hā-Ḥāsiyḏōṯ.
  3812. Namaste (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, नमस्ते) is “bowing to you” (i.e., obeisance) or, literally, “to bend.” However, a better English-language translation is “to bow,” as in, “I bow before you.” Saying “namaste,” touching one’s palms (the namaste gesture), or doing both simultaneously is a common greeting in parts of South Asia (see glossary entry). A more formal greeting is namaskār (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, नमस्कार), with the common Indo-ʾIyrānian suffix -kar (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, कार, to do or to make), is to make obeisance or, literally, “to make oneself bend” (or bow). Namaskāra or, alternately transliterated, nōmōshka (Bengali, নমস্কার) is the Bengali convention. These two Unicode glyphs approximate namaste: 🙏 and 🙇.

Criticism generally includes Marxian and neo-Marxian analyses of power. The objective is to promote significant social change. Research is not “neutral.”
    • The concept of criticism also refers to various responses to Immanuel Kant’s consideration of epistemology (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ ʾal-maʿrifaẗ) in his book, The Critique of Pure Reason.
    See also the glossary entries, ⫯Iymānuwīl Kānṭ, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ ʾal-maʿrifaẗ, ʾal-Mārksiyyaẗu, and ʾal-Mārksiyyaẗu ʾal-ǧadīdaẗ.

All of the other major orders descend from the ⫯Imām ʿAliyy (see the glossary entry, ʿAliyy ʾibn ⫯Abī Ṭālib) who was also the fourth Sunniyy caliph.
    • Etymologically, the word Naqšbandī is the “bond” or “banding” (the Persian cognate, بند, band), from the Indo-European root “bhendh,” which is established through the “engraving” (Persian, نقش, naqš) of the Name ʾAllꞌah upon the person’s spiritual heart (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Qalb). ʾal-Naqšbandiyaẗ have often accepted the spiritual legitimacy of ⫯Uwaysiyy transmissions.

    • In sociology, critical (social) theory was originally identified with the neo-Kantian (idealist), neo-Marxian Frankfurt school (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Maḏhabu ʾal-Frānkfūrt). For example, first generational critical theory often incorporated elements of Sigmund Freud’s (see the glossary entry, Sīġmūnd Fruwīd) neo-Kantian psychoanalysis (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Taḥlīl ʾal-nafsiyy), including Fredu’s discussion of the unconscious mind (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿAql ʾal-lāwāʿī).
    • Many contemporary critical theorists have introduced elements of a more recent type of idealism called social constructionism. After abandoning critical realism and before embracing it once again, I personally accepted that synthesized perspective, sometimes referred to as postmodern critical theory (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ ʾal-naqdiyyaẗ mā baʿdi ʾal-ḥadāṯaẗ), for several years.

  4061. Nōḥạ (Hebrew, נוֹחַ or נֹחַ, rest, peace, or comfort), commonly Romanized as Noah, was the Prophet of God for the Diluvian Dispensation (my own term). The Arabic spelling of His divine Name is Nūḥ (نُوح‎).
    • According to tradition, Noah’s sons repopulated the Earth following the Great Flood. Their names were Shem (“name”; سام, Sām; Hebrew: שֵם, Šēm), Ham (“heat or hot”; حَمّ, Ḥāmm; Hebrew: חָם, Ḥām), and Japeth (“fair or enlarged”; يافث‎, Yāfiṯ; Hebrew: יֶפֶֿתֿ, Yẹp̄ẹṯ). In Judaism, Noah’s sons and descendants are called hā-benēy hā-Nōḥạ (Hebrew, הָבֶּןי הָנוֹחַ), the sons of Noah. hā-ben hā-Nōḥạ (Hebrew, הָבֶּן הָנוֹחַ) is the son of Noah. The Arabic version of the sons of Noah would be ʾal-⫯abnāˁ ʾal-Nūḥ (الأبناء النُوح‎). ʾal-ʾIbn ʾal-Nūḥ (الابن النُوح‎) is the son of Nūḥ in Arabic.
    • The various branches of the modern-day Noahide movement (my coined term, النُوحِيَّة‎, ʾal-Nūḥiyyaẗ), which offer a contemporary interpretation of hā-benēy hā-Nōăḥ, claim to be following “the seven laws (or more precisely, the commandments) of the sons of Noah” (Hebrew, הָשִׁבְעַה הָמִצְווֹת הָבֶּנֵי הָנוֹחַ, hā-šẹḇʿạḥ hā-miṣəwōṯ hā-bẹnēy hā-Nōḥạ).

  4065. Noosphere was a term first used by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin for the human thought world.
    • The word is a portmanteau of noûs (Ancient Greek, νοῦς), “mind,” and sphaîra (Ancient Greek, σφαῖρα), “sphere.”
    • According to Teilhard, “All our difficulties and repulsions as regards the opposition between the All and the Person would be dissipated if only we understood that, by structure, the noosphere (and more generally the world) represent a whole that is not only closed but also centred.” (Pierre Teilhard De Chardin, The Phenomenon of Man. New York: Harper Perennial Modern Classics. 2008. Pages 262-263.)

  4144. Pạləṭiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, פַּלְטִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Deliverance in ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Paltiel the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). Bāltī⫯īl ʾal-Malāk (بَالْتِيئِيل الْمَلَاك) is my Arabization. Ángelos Paltiḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Παλτιήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. When I first saw His name, I had an inner sense that He was an Angel. I then found the source.
  4145. Pāli or, as indicated by the Dēvanāgarī Romanization used in this glossary, Pāli (Dēvanāgarī Pāli/Sanskrit script, पालि), is an extinct language (both written and spoken) which is now studied and utilized by Buddhologists, other scholars, and scholar-practitioners. Today, it is commonly written, in academic contexts, using the Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script. Pāli has also been extensively translated into Chinese and Tibetan.
  4146. Pạmẹlāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, פַּמֶלָה הָמַלְאָךְ), Bāmīlā ʾal-Malāk (بَامِيلَا الْمَلَاك), Pāmīlā Farištah (Persian, پَامِيلَا فَرِشْتَه), Ángelos Pámela (Greek, Ἄγγελος Πάμελα), or Pamera-Tenshi (Japanese, パメラ天使), All Sweetness the Angel, is Pamela the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin).
  4147. Pānāhʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, פָּנָהאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Turn Towards ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Panael the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). Pānāh (Hebrew, פָּנָה) is turned or to turn. ⫯Antaqil ⫯ilaỳ ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (أَنْتَقِل إِلَى الله الْمَلَاك), Move (or Transfer) towards (or to) God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Panaḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Παναήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  4148. Pān hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, פָּן הָמַלְאָךְ), Bān ʾal-Malāk (بَان الْمَلَاك), Ángelos Pán (Ancient Greek, Ἄγγελος Πάν), Pān Farištah (Persian, پَان فَرِشْتَه, or ʾUrdū, پَان فَرِشْتَہ), Tenshi no Pan (Japanese, 天使のパン), or Ch’ŏnsa P’aen (Korean, 천사 팬), Pasture (Ancient Greek) the Angel, is Pan the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). He is, according to John Randolph Price, the Angel of Materiality and Temptation.
  4149. Paṅca Namaḥ (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, पङ्च नमः) is Sanskrit for Five Names, as silently repeated in Rādhā Svāmī Satsaṅga Byāsa (see glossary entry) and some of its branches (factions). Paja Nāma (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਪੰਜ ਨਾਮ) is the Guramukhī Punjabi form. Panǧa Nāma (Persian, پَنْج نَامَ) is the Persian convention. Panča Nāmūṉ (ʾUrdū, پانچ ناموں) is the ʾUrdū version. The possible etymologies of the Five Names, from my own research, are:
    • Jyōta Nirajana (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਜ੍ਯੋਤ ਨਿਰੰਜਨ) or Jyōta Nirañjana (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, ज्योत निरंजन) is the first name which is inwardly recited. Jyōta (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਜ੍ਯੋਤ) is “light or effulgence.” Nirajana (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਨਿਰੰਜਨ) is “without blemishes.” See also the glossary entry, Jyōti.
    • Ō⫯akāra (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਓਅੰਕਾਰ, in which ਕਾਰ, -kāra, is from the Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, कर, -kara, to do or to make) is “Oṃ-maker or, by implication, God.” The “Ō” is Oṃ (see the glossary entry, Auṃ). Oṃkāra (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, ओंकार) is the Sanskrit form.
    • Rarāmakāra (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਰਰਾਮਕਾਰ) is “the Possessing, Giving, or Acquiring Black One or Rāma” (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, राम, Rāma; or Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਰਾਮਾ, Rāma). In some traditions, Rarāmakāra is replaced with Karamakāra (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਕਰਮਕਾਰ), “Maker of karma or action.” See also the glossary entry, Karma.
    • Sō ⫯Ham or sohang (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਸੋ ऽਹਮ੍, or Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, सो ऽहम्) is “I am he or I am that.” See also the glossary entry, Haṃsa.
    • Sati Nāmu (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਸਤਿ ਨਾਮੁ), Sat Nāma (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, सत् नाम), or Śani Nāma (Gujarātī, શનિ નામ) is “True or Ideal Name.” See also the glossary entry, Sati Nāmu.
    The Five Names are sometimes interpreted as the five lords of consciousness. In the Quan Yin Method (see the glossary entry, Qəwōʾən-Yin hā-Mạləʾāḵə) of Ching Hai (Chinese, 驚駭, Jīng Hài, astonished one), born in 1950, the Paṅca Namaḥ have been modified or transliterated as Gomtrazan Gwaarla Rarunka Sohuan Satnum. Compare with the glossary entry, Śabda Pratāp Āśrama. See also the glossary entries, Rādhā Svāmī Satsaṅga, Śivdayāl Siṅh, Śrī Śrī Ṭhākura Anukūlacandra, and Sūrata Śabda Yōga.
  4150. Pạnədōrāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, פַּנְדּוֹרָה הָמַלְאָךְ), Bāndūrā ʾal-Malāk (بَانْدُورَا الْمَلَاك), Pāndūrā Farištah (Persian, پَانْدُورَا فَرِشْتَه), Pinḍūrā Farištah (ʾUrdū, پِنڈُورَا فَرِشْتَہ), Paynḍūrā Farišatah (Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, پَینڈُورَا فَرِشَتَہ), Peṃḍorā Fariśtā (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, पेंडोरा फ़रिश्ता), Pēṇḍōrā Fariśatā (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਪੇਂਡੋਰਾ ਫ਼ਰਿਸ਼ਤਾ), Pyānḍōrā Dēbadūta (Bengali, প্যান্ডোরা দেবদূত), Paṇḍōra Dēvadūta (Telugu, పండోర దేవదూత), Paṇṭōrā Tēvatai (Tamiḻ, பண்டோரா தேவதை), Pāṇḍora Dēvate (Kannaḍa, ಪಾಂಡೊರ ದೇವತೆ), Pānḍōrā Ēnjala (Gujarātī, પાન્ડોરા એન્જલ), Pandora-Enjeru (Japanese, パンドラエンジェル), P’andora Ch’ŏnsa (Korean, 판도라 천사), Pānduōlā-Tiānshǐ (Chinese, 潘多拉天使), or Ángelos Pandṓra (Ancient Greek, Ἄγγελος Πανδώρα), the All-Endowed (Ancient Greek) the Angel, is Pandora the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). The Hebrew-language spelling, including the vowel-points, is unaltered from the original.
  4151. Pancasila (Indonesian) is paṅca (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, पङ्च), five, with śilā (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, शिला), stones. The term refers to five cornerstones or five principles. (Indonesian uses the Roman alphabet.)
  4152. Panǧāba (Persian, Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, and ʾUrdū, پَنْجَابَ), Pajāba or Paṃjāba (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਪੰਜਾਬ), Pañjāba (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, पंजाब), ʾal-Banǧāb (Arabic, البَنْجَاب), or Punjab (the common English-language spelling) is a region of South Asia currently shared by India (see the glossary entry, Bhārata Gaṇarājya) and Pākistāna (see glossary entry).
    • The word, Panǧāba, translates from the original Persian as “five rivers” or, more precisely, “five waterways.” Panǧ (پنج) is Persian for the number five. ʾÂb (آب) is Persian for water.
    • The Punjab was home to Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū (see glossary entry), to Bābā Bulhē Šāh-i Qādrī Šaṭṭārī (see glossary entry), to Gurū Nānaka (see glossary entry), to Sānəṭ-Kạbiyr hā-Mạləʾāḵə (see glossary entry), and to many other blessed saints (see the glossary entry ʾal-Waliyy ʾAllꞌah). Although I have not as yet visited the Punjab, it is my spiritual home.
    Compare with the glossary entry, Hindustānī. See also the glossary entry, Punǧ°ābī.
  4153. Punǧ°ābī (Persian and Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, پَنْجَابِی), Pajābī or Paṃjābī (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਪੰਜਾਬੀ), Punǧ°ābī (ʾUrdū, پنجابی), Pañjābī (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, पंजाबी), ʾal-Banǧābiyaẗ (Arabic, البَنْجَابِيَاة), or Punjabi (the common English-language spelling) is the language of the Punjab (see the glossary entry, Panǧāba). Punjabi is written in two scripts:
    • Šāh Mukhī (my own Romanization of the original Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, شاہ مکھی, king’s mouth or utterance) or Shahmukhi, which is written from right to left, is based upon the Persianized Arabic script. However, Šāh Mukhī script also has some formal similarities with ʾUrdū script. Šāh Mukhī Punjabi is the script used by most Punjabi Muslims (generally speaking, in the Pākistānī Punjab).
    • Guramukhī (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਗੁਰਮੁਖੀ, guru’s mouth or utterance) or Gurmukhi, which is written from left to right, is a linguistic cousin to Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script. Guramukhī Punjabi is used by most Punjabi Sikhs and Hindus (generally speaking, in the Indian Punjab). Guramukhī Punjabi is employed more frequently than Šāh Mukhī Punjabi.
    • The Sanskrit word, mukhī (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, मुखी), is found in the names of both scripts. It translates as “mouth.”
    See also the glossary entries, Guru and Šāh.
  4154. Pānəgū hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, פָּנְגּוּ הָמַלְאָךְ), Bānġū ʾal-Malāk (بَانْغُو الْمَلَاك), or Pāngū Farištah (پَانْگُو فَرِشْتَه), Aboriginal Abyss (Chinese) the Angel, is Pangu (Chinese, 盘古, Pángǔ) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.

  4156. Pāqəʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, פָּקְאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Bākāl ʾal-Malāk (بَاكَال الْمَلَاك), and Ángelos Pakál (Greek, Ἄγγελος Πακάλ), Shield the Angel, refer to Pacal (or Pakal) the Angel, possibly a resident of the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin) and its Archangels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. Pakal is Mayan (which now uses the Roman alphabet) for “shield.” In my opinion, He is incorrectly regarded by some popular writers as an “ancient astronaut” (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ruwād ʾal-faḍāˁ ʾal-qadīmaẗ). Compare with the glossary entries, Bẹp-Kōrōṭāniy hā-Mạləʾāḵə and Dōgū hā-Mạləʾāḵə.
  4157. Pārāniyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, פָּארָנִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Bough of ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Phaniel (or Paraniel) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). Pārān (Hebrew, פָּארָן) is from hā-pūʾrāh (Hebrew, הָפֻּארָה), the bough. With three cognates, Fārān ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (فَارَان الله الْمَلَاك), Paran (Bough) of God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Phaniḗl (Ἄγγελος Φανιήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. Pārān Farištah (Persian, پَارَان فَرِشْتَه, and ʾUrdū, پاران فَرِشْتَہ) is the Persian and ʾUrdū convention.
  4158. Paṇṭhan (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, पण्ठन्), paṃtha (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, पंथ), pathyā (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, पथ्या), and patha (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, पथ) are Indo-European cognates and synonyms with the English-language “path.”
  4159. Pántheon (Πάνθεον) is, in Ancient Greek, “for (or of) all the Gods.” It was originally a term for a temple dedicated to the worship of Greek Gods. The word was later applied to the set, or “collective,” of Gods worshipped within a particular religion. The Arabic cognate is ʾal-bāntiyūn (البانتيون). I have included the term, pántheon, in the glossary because of a possible similarity with the Station of Prophetic Distinction or, perhaps, Prophethood in general. In the divine hierarchy of Prophets sent to this world, Bahá’u’lláh, the Supreme Manifestation of God, occupies the highest Prophetic Rank.
  4160. Paramātman (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, परमात्मन्) is the Supreme (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, परमात्, Param) Soul or Self (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, परम्, Ātman). The term is, in modern India, used for God.

    • Kriya Yōga is an initiatory system which incorporates mantras (see the glossary entry, Mantra), such as “aw,” and “ee,” in addition to various breathing exercises (see the glossary entry, Prāṇāyām) and proper posture (see the glossary entry, āsana).
    • Parām (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, पराम्) is transcendental. Ānanda (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, आनन्द) is ecstasy, bliss, joy, pleasure, or delight. He was born Mukunda Lāla Ghōṣa (Bengali, মুকুন্দ লাল ঘোষ, Mukunda Lāla Ghōṣa; or in Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, मुकुंद लाल घोष, Mukuṃda Lāla Ghōṣa)
    • In 1920, Yogananda founded the American organization, the Self-Realization Fellowship. My late mother, Corinne Foster, studied under one of his students.

Pārās (Hebrew, פָּרָס) is (Ancient) Persia.
    • With three cognates, Fāris ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (فَارِس الله الْمَلَاك), Persia of God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation.
    • Ángelos Parasiḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Παρασιήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. Fārs-i H̱udā Farištah (Persian, فَارسِ خُدَا فَرِشْتَه), Persia of God Angel, is my Persian-language translation. Fārs mīṉ H̱udā kē Farištah (ʾUrdū, فارس میں خدا کے فَرِشْتَہ) and Phārasa meṃ Ḵẖudā kē Fariśtā (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, फारस में ख़ुदा के फ़रिश्ता), Persia in God the (or of) Angel, are my Hindustānī renderings.
  4163. Pārasī Maḏhab (ʾUrdū, پارسی مذہب) is the Parsi Religion of South Asia. In Gujarātī, a common Parsi language, the convention is Pārasī Dharma (પારસી ધર્મ), the natural law of the Parsi.

  4196. Pentecostalism (from the Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, pentēkostḗ or πεντηκοστή, fiftieth day) is an American neo-Protestant movement. It was initiated by Charles F. Parham (1873-1929) of Topeka, Kansas. Following a spiritual experience in 1900, Parham’s work inspired a series of revival meetings on Azusa St. in Los Angeles, California. Pentecostalism initially combined the Methodist or Wesleyan (John Wesley) emphasis on sanctification or holiness with various gifts of the Holy Spirit, including glōssolalía (see glossary entry). As I explained in my doctoral dissertation (1984), American Pentecostal Convergence and Divergence: A Hermeneutic and Survey Analysis, Pentecostalism soon divided into three major factions (my own terms):
    • The Parhamites continued, with some modifications, to accept the Methodist interpretation of instant sanctification (as an event following spiritual salvation, redemption, or rebirth).
    • The Durhamites, influenced by William Howard Durham (1873–1912), adopted a more Baptist view of gradual holiness.
    • The Ewartites are named after Frank John Ewart. His theology combined a basically Durhamite Pentecostalism with modalism. See the glossary entry, ʾal-Mawdāliyyaẗ.
    Since the early twentieth century, Pentecostalism has further factionalized and, through the Charismatic Renewal Movement, has even influenced Roman Catholicism. In my view, a comparison can be made between Pentecostalism and the Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement (see glossary entry). Both movements have appealed disproportionately to subaltern (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṯānaw) populations, especially, in the case of Pentecostalism, to African Americans and Latinos. See also the glossary entries, Glōssolalía and ʾal-H̱amsīniyyaẗ.

  4287. ʾal-Qadar (القدر‎), with ʾal-aqdiyaẗ (العقدية) as a plural form, is fate. Compare with the glossary entries, ʾal-⫯Iymān bi-ʾal-qaḍāˁi w-ʾal-qadar and ʾal-Qadariyyaẗ.
  4288. ʾal-Qadariyyaẗ (القَدَرِيَّة), with ʾal-qadariyy (القَدَرِيّ) as the possessive or an appurtenance, is fatalism (French, fatalisme). Compare with the glossary entries, ʾal-⫯Iymān bi-ʾal-qaḍāˁi w-ʾal-qadar and ʾal-Qadar.
  4289. Qạdərū hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, קַדְּרוּ הָמַלְאָךְ), Kadrū ʾal-Malāk (كَدْرُو الْمَلَاك), Kadrū Farištah (Persian, کَدْرُو فَرِشْتَه, or ʾUrdū, کَدرُو فَرِشْتَہ), Kadrū Farišatah (Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, کَدرُو فَرِشَتَہ), Kadrū Fariśtā (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, कद्रू फ़रिश्ता), or Kadrū Fariśatā (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਕਦ੍ਰੂ ਫ਼ਰਿਸ਼ਤਾ), Reddish-Brown One (Sanskrit) the Angel, is Kadru (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, कद्रू, Kadrū) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.
  4290. ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ (القادريَّة), with ʾal-Qādiriyy (القادريّ) as the possessive or an appurtenance (“powerful”), is a Sunniyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-Ssunnaẗ w-ʾal-Ǧamāʾaẗ) Ṣūfiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣūfiyy) order (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ). The word ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ is related to the name of a sūraẗ (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Sūraẗ) in ʾal-Qurʾân (see glossary entry). ʾal-Qadr or, alternately, ʾal-Qadir (القدر), can be translated as power or the powerful one.
    • The Persian spelling is Qādriyah (قادریه). The ʾUrdū and Šāh Mukhī Punjabi form is Qādrī (ʾUrdū and Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, قادری).

    • This ṭarīqaẗ, the one closest to my heart, was started by ʿAbd ʾal-Qādir ʾal-Ǧīlāniyy (see glossary entry), God bless his dear soul.
    • Although, as a Bahá’í, I cannot be a formal member of a religious order, I am connected to ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ through: first, Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū (see glossary entry), the beloved one, who initiated his own branch of this order (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ ʾal-Sarwariyyaẗ), second, Bābā Bulhē Šāh-i Qādrī Šaṭṭārī (see glossary entry), third, Brahmarṣi Śrī Madin Kabīra Śāha (see glossary entry) and his Śrī Viśva Vijñāna Vidyā Ādhyātmika Pīṭham (see glossary entry), and, fourth, Ḥaḍrat Siyyidnā Riyāḍ ʾAḥmad Sarkār Guhar Šāhī (see glossary entry) and his ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ ʾal-Muntahiyyaẗ (see glossary entry).
    See also the glossary entries, Subud and ʾal-Taṣawwuf.
  4291. ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ ʾal-Muntahiyyaẗ (القادريَّة المُنْتَهِيَّة) or Qādrī ʾal-Muntahī (ʾUrdūized Arabic, قادری المنتهی) is the name given to the movement started by Ḥaḍrat Siyyidnā Riyāḍ ʾAḥmad Sarkār Guhar Šāhī (see glossary entry). It is the Qādrī order (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ) of the finished or terminated one (المنتهي, ʾal-muntahī), possibly because Šāhī’s ⫯Uwaysiyy transmission (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Fayḍ and ʾal-⫯Uwaysiyyaẗ) completed (or fulfilled) the branch of the Qādrī order started by Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū (see glossary entry). After Šāhī’s death or disappearance, the four original branches of his movement, previously all united into a single movement, are now organized into different factions:
    • R.A.G.S., United Kingdom (R.A.G.S., which stands for the ʾUrdūized Arabic, ریاض, Riyāḍ; احمد, ʾAḥmad; گوھر, Guhar; شاہی, Šāhī), with a domain which as registered in Toronto, ON, considers the book, Dīn-i ʾIlahī (see glossary entry), to be Šāhī’s “last testament.” The group, apparently a faction of R.A.G.S., International (one of the four original branches), advocates repeating ʾal-ḏikr (see glossary entry), yā Riyāḍ (ʾUrdūized Arabic, يا احمد, O Gardens of paradise, taken from Šāhī’s name), seven times (with one’s hand on the heart), whenever desired, in order to receive “the spirit of the holy name.” No mention was made of Šāhī as ʾal-mahdī (see glossary entry). Their website is no longer functional.
    • On the other hand, Mehdi [Mihdi] Foundation International (ʾUrdūized Arabic and English, مہدی فاونڈیشن, Mihdī Fawnḋiyyāšin), another faction of R.A.G.S., International, is also known as (or closely associated with), in the English language, Gohar Shahi International, Kalki Avatar Foundation (ʾUrdūized Sanskrit and English, کلکی اوتار فاونڈیشن, Kalkī Āwatār Fawnḋiyyāšin), and Messiah Foundation International. This London-based organization claims that Šāhī, who is now in occultation (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ġaybaẗ), is the (interfaith) messiah or mahdī. It is currently operated by Yūnus ʾal-Guhar or Younus AlGohar (ʾUrdū, یونس الگوھر). He was born Muḥammad Yūnus (ʾUrdūized Arabic, مُحَمَّد یونس) in 1970 (see the glossary entry, Yōnāh)
      Younus AlGohar
    • The U.S.-based branch, the American Ṣūfiyy Institute (Devil’s Lake, ND), seems to have joined with Mehdi Foundation International. Before the factionalization of the movement (as I recall, in the middle-to-late 1990s), a leader or representative of the American Ṣūfiyy Institute graciously came to my home and instructed me in Šāhī’s meditation techniques, including taṣavvur-i ism-i ḏāt (see glossary entry) of Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū. I personally believe that Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū used this movement to more closely connect me with his departed soul.
    • A separate branch, All Faith Spiritual Movement International (originally in Antrim, Northern Ireland, UK), contends that, even though Šāhī never claimed to be ʾal-mahdī, he is ʾal-mahdī.
    • Members of yet another branch, Anǧumān Sarfrušān-i ⫰Islām or Anjuman Sarfroshan e Islam (ʾUrdū, انجمن سرفروشانِ اسلام) are the Organization of (ʾUrdū, انجمن, anǧumān) of Fearless Ones or Martyrs of (ʾUrdū, سرفروشان ِ, sarfrušān-i) ⫰Islām (ʾUrdū and Arabic, اسلام). ASI, International, the official abbreviation for the organization’s name, argues that, as a faithful Sunniyy (see glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Ahl ʾal-Ssunnaẗ w-ʾal-Ǧamāʾaẗ), Šāhī, who is deceased, was not ʾal-mahdī, but, rather, that he was open to accepting members of other religions into his movement. ASI, International, is located in Bahāwalpūr (ʾUrdū, بہاولپور‎), a city in the Pākistānī Punjab.
    • Finally, ʾal-Markāz-i Rūḥānī-i Qādrī or Al-Markaz-e-Rohani-e Kotri (ʾUrdūized Arabic, المَركَزِ روحَانیِ قَادرِی‎) is the Spiritual (روحانی‎ ِ, Rūḥānī) Center of (ʾUrdūized Arabic, المَرْكَز ِ, ʾal-markāz-i) Qādrī (ʾUrdūized Arabic, قادری‎). The website is also available on Archive.org. It apparently is, based upon an earlier redirection page, associated with ASI, International. Both websites also present similar interpretations of Šāhī and his activities. Significantly, however, in relation to this glossary listing, ʾal-Markāz-i Rūḥānī-i Qādrī operates the only website which formally connects Šāhī with ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ (in the name of the organization). The group is located in the Jamshoro District (ʾUrdū, ضِلعِ جامشورو‎, Ḍilaʿ-i Ǧāmšūrū) of Sindh (ʾUrdū, سندھ‎), Pākistāna.
    The parent order of ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ ʾal-Muntahiyyaẗ is ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ (see glossary entry) or, perhaps more directly, ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ ʾal-Sarwariyyaẗ (see glossary entry). See also the glossary entries, Bā Šāhrāh va bī Šāhrāh, ʾal-Ṣūfiyy, and ʾal-Taṣawwuf.
  4292. ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ ʾal-Sarwariyyaẗ (القادريَّة السروريّة) was the Ṣūfiyy order (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ) founded by the beautiful Punjabi walī (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Waliyy ʾAllꞌah) Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū (see glossary entry). ʾal-Sarwar (السرور), from the name of the order, is the leader or the chief. ʾal-Sarwariyy (السروريّ) is the possessive or an appurtenance. Sarvariỳ (سرورى) is the Persian form. Dear Bāhū, God bless his soul, appointed no successor (see the glossary entry ʾal-H̱alīfaẗ). Nevertheless, several branches of his order have been founded over the years. Since Bāhū, in his book Nūr ʾal-Hudaỳ (نور الهدى, Light of Guidance), offered to give people ⫯Uwaysiyy transmissions (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Fayḍ and ʾal-⫯Uwaysiyyaẗ), some of the orders which claim to be related to him have no continuous “earthly” salāsil (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Silsilaẗ). Branches and devotional activities include:
    • ʾal-Faqr (الفقر). See the glossary entry, ʾal-Faqīr.
    • Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū (see glossary entry).
    • Ḥaqq Bāhū (Persianized Arabic, حقّ باہو). See the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥaqq.
    • ʾal-Ḥīraẗ (الحيرة, the encampment), a mosque in the United Kingdom. See the glossary entry, ʾal-Masǧid.
    • Nūr Bāhū (Persianized Arabic, نور باہو). See the glossary entry, ʾal-Nūr.
    • ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ ʾal-Muntahiyyaẗ (see glossary entry).
    • Sarwarī Qādrī (ʾUrdūized Arabic, سروری قادری‎). ʾal-Sarwariyy (السروريّ) is pleasure.
    • Sarwarī Qādrī Silsilah (ʾUrdūized Arabic, سروری قادری‎ سلسله). See the glossary entry, ʾal-Silsilaẗ.
    • Yā Bāhū. See the glossary entry, Yā Bāhū!
    The parent order of ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ ʾal-Sarwariyyaẗ is ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ (see glossary entry).

One imagines the word, ʾAllꞌah, engraved upon one’s heart. This activity has been incorporated, with some changes, into Heartfulness Inquiry.

This distinction is important for understanding the alleged killings by the Prophets Moses (see the glossary entry, Mōšẹh) and Muḥammad (see glossary entry). For an elabortion, see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʾIǧhāḍ.

  4365. ʾal-Qatl ʾal-⫯ab (الْقَتْل الأَب), killing of the father, is patricide.
  4366. ʾal-Qatluṇ ʾal-ǧamāʿiyy (القَتْلٌ الجَمَاعِيّ), killing (or murder) collective, is mass murder. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-⫯Ibādaẗuṇ ʾal-ǧamāʿiyyaẗ, ʾal-Qatl, and ʾal-Qatluṇ ʾal-musalsal.

Qawālī (ʾUrdū قوالي, qawālī; Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, क़व्वाली, kavvālī; or Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਕਵਾਲੀ, kavālī), “loquacious,” refers to originally Čištī (see glossary entry) South Asian Muslim devotional music. It emerged from the Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement (see glossary entry). A person who sings a qawālī is a qawāla (ʾUrdū, قووال, qawāla; Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, क़व्वाल, kavvāla; or Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਕੱਵਾਲ, kavāla). The word is from the Arabic, ʾal-qawl (القَوْل), the speech, the utterance, or the discourse. “Qawwālī       A form of ecstatic Sufi Muslim worship in which a soloist leads a group of singers ....” (Gordon Thompson, “Qawwālī.” Encyclopedia of India. Volume 3. Stanley Wolpert, editor. Detroit, MI: Charles Scribner’s Sons. 2006. Pages 361-362.) Examples of Qawālī are:
    • ʾal-Ġazal (الغزل) is the spinning of ballads or love poems. See the glossary entry, ʾal-Ġazālī.

In a dream on September 23, 2015, a woman, Kate the Angel, and her daughter, Victoria the Angel (see the glossary entry, Wiyqəṭōriyāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə), possessed time-travel stones. Since these individuals came from the past, I assume, incorrectly, that they do not know the purpose of the stones. “Wonderful,” I think, sarcastically. When I try to take the stones, the little girl injures me. Then, I go to the mother. She and her daughter, the mother tells me, were taken into the past by another team. The two of them have also been using the stones, in a machine, to dance in a vortex.

In effect, the Báb, as ʾal-Qā⫯im (see glossary entry), confirmed that He Whom God Shall Make Manifest (see the glossary entry, Min Yaẓhar ʾAllꞌah), a prophetic title of Bahá’u’lláh, will be ʾal-Qayyūm (see glossary entry).

This new religious movement (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥarakaẗ ʾal-ddīiniyyaẗ ʾal-ǧadīdaẗ) was founded, in 1974, by Claude Vorilhon (كلود فوريلون, Klūd Fūrīlūn), born in 1946. Vorilhon is known by the title, Raël (رائيل, Ra⫯īl). In the context of the religion, the word “Raël” is “messenger.”

President Obama is the first African American (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Amīrkiyyaẗ ʾal-⫯Afrīqiyyaẗ) president. For what it’s worth, he is also the first president younger than this writer. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Ra⫯īs and ʾal-Ra⫯īs ʾal-⫯Amrīkiyy.

I remember my precise location at the moment his assassination was announced over the public address (PA) system: seated in the left rear of Mrs. Hoplamazian’s second-grade classroom. (She was also the assistant teacher in my kindergarten class.) She cried. All classes were immediately dismissed. Arriving home, I found, as an Autistic, my mother’s crying to be disturbing and confusing. Still, exploring President Kennedy’s assassination (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Agtiyāl ʾal-siyāsiyy) became one of the major Autistic special interests of my childhood. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Ra⫯īs and ʾal-Ra⫯īs ʾal-⫯Amrīkiyy.
  4541. Rājan (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, राजन्) is king.
  4542. ʾal-Rakʿaẗ (الركعة), with ʾal-rakʿāt (الركعات) as the plural form, translates, literally, as prostration, as in ʾal-Ṣalāt (see glossary entry). However, in a Ṣūfiyy context, the term is frequently applied to repetitions of ʾal-ḏikr (see glossary entry), i.e., inner  prostrations.
  4543. Rāma Candra or Ram Chandra (in Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, राम चन्द; and as sometimes transliterated into Arabic, ʾUrdū, and Persian, رام تشاندرا, Rām Tšāndrā), Sanskrit for dark (rāma) moon (candra), is also referred to as Lalajī Mahārāja (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, ललजी महाराज), Sanskrit for the honored (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, जी, jī) playful one (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, लल, lala), the great king (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, महाराज, mahārāja).
    • In 1873, Rāma Candra was born in Mainpurī (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, मैनपुरी), India. (“Purī,” or पुरी using Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, is “city.” “Mainpurī” is an apparent English-Hiṃdī, or “Hinglish,” hybrid of “main city.”) He died in 1931. As a Hindu and a reported initiate of Rādhā Svāmī Satsaṅga (see glossary entry), Lalajī (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, ललजी), the name by which he is commonly known, was allegedly the first non-Muslim šayẖ (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Šayẖ) of the Naqšbandī (see glossary entry) Ṣūfiyy (see the glossary entry, Ṣūfiyy) order (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ). His legacy has been claimed by both Hindus and Muslims. I was once blessed to experience his Ṣūfiyy meditation technique through a “prefect” of Sahaj Marg (Sahāj Mārga, Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, सहज मार्ग), natural path.
    • For further information on Lalajī, see this links page.

Compare with the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥašarāt, ʾal-Ḥukām, ʾal-Bīḍaẗ ʾal-Qāmaẗ ⫯aw ʾal-Šamāliyyaẗ ⫯aw ʾal-ʿAriyān, ʾal-Tšūbākābrā, and ʾal-Zzāḥif. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Haǧīn.
  4546. Rāma Rôya Bhāskara (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, राम रॉय भास्कर), May 15ᵗʰ, 1944, – November 19ᵗʰ, 2014, is the Hiṃdī version of the name of (Ram) Roy Bhaskar, God bless his dear soul. He was an Indian-English philosopher and the beautiful founder of the philosophy of Critical Realism, including its early twenty-first-century unfolding, the philosophy of metaReality.
    • Variations of his name in other South Asian languages include: Rāma Rā⫯ē Bhāsakara (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਰਾਮ ਰਾਏ ਭਾਸਕਰ), Rāma Rā⫯ē Bahāskara (ʾUrdū and Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, رَامَ رَائَے بھَاسکَر), Rāma Rāẏa Bhāskara (Bengali and Assamese, রাম রায় ভাস্কর), Rām Rāy Pāskar (Tamiḻ, ராம் ராய் பாஸ்கர்), Rām Rāy Bhāskar (Telugu, రామ్ రాయ్ భాస్కర్, and Malayaḷaṃ, രാമ് രായ് ഭാസ്കര്), Rāma Rōya Bhāskara (Gujarātī, રામ રોય ભાસ્કર, Dēvanāgarī Nepālī/Sanskrit script, राम रोय भास्कर), and Rāma Rāya Bhāskara (Ōṛi⫯ā, ରାମ ରାଯ ଭାସ୍କର). His name in Arabic would be something like Rāma Ru⫯yā Bahāskāra (رَامَ رُؤيَا بَهَاسْكَارَ) and in Persian, Rāma Rūya Bahāskāra (رَامَ رُویَ بَهَاسْکَارَ).
    • Rôya (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, रॉय) and its cognates are derived from the Arabic word, ʾal-Ru⫯yā (see glossary entry). Rôya is a false cognate with the common English-language name, Roy (from the proto-Celtic, roudos, red). The Sanskrit word, Bhāskara (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, भास्कर), and its cognates translate as bright, shining, or glittering. See the glossary entry, Rāma.

It is an epic poem, in Sanskrit, which was reportedly written by Vālmīki (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, वाल्मीकि), a Hindu sage from the fourth century B.C. Yaṇa (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, यण) is vehicle. See also the glossary entries, Ġūk Bʾâsišt and Rāma.
  4548. Rāmạziyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, רָמַזִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Hint of ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Ramaziel the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). Rāmạz (Hebrew, רָמַז) is to hint, to imply, or to indicate. hā-Rẹmẹz (Hebrew, הָרֶמֶז) is the hint, the clue, or the indication. With three cognates, Ramz ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (رَمْز الله الْمَلَاك), Sign (alternatively, Symbol, Ensign, or Emblem) of God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. ʾal-Rumūz (الرُمُوز) are the signs, the symbols, the ensigns, or the emblems.
  4549. ʾal-Ramzuṇ li-ḥarakaẗiṇ ʾal-ṣawtiyyaẗ (الرَمْزٌ لِحَرَكَةٍ الصَوْتِيَّة), the sign (or emblem) for (or to) movement (or activity) voiced (or acoustic), is the schwa.

My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.

    • “Submitter” is a translation of Muslim (see glossary entry). “Masjid” is a Romanization of Masǧid (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Masǧid).
    • I briefly met H̱alīfaẗ during one of his presentations. He was speaking at Mississippi State University, where I received my Ph.D. in sociology, in the early 1980s.
    • H̱alīfaẗ was celebrated by some and harshly criticized by others after claiming, based on an extensive computer analysis, that ʾal-Qurʾân (see glossary entry) was revealed in multiples of nineteen. In arguing his case, he frequently quoted this verse: “Over it [divine retribution or fire] is nineteen.” (Qurʾân 74:30, Qurʾân, the Final Testament: Authorized English Version. Rashad Khalifa, translator.) H̱alīfaẗ also claimed to be a messenger of God (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Rasūl). Regrettably, he became the victim of a religious hate crime or, more precisely, an act of terrorism. He was assassinated by an alleged ʾal-Qāʿidaẗ operative (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Qāʿidaẗ) in 1990.

  4558. ʾal-Rasm ʾal-muẖẖ (الرَسْم المُخّ), the depiction (or illustration) of the brain, is the electroencephalogram (EEG). ʾal-Rusūm ʾal-muẖẖ (الرُسُوم المُخّ) and ʾal-rusūmāt ʾal-muẖẖ (الرُسُومات المُخّ) are plural forms. ʾal-Taẖṭīṭ ʾal-dimāġiyy (التَخْطِيط الدِمَاغِيّ), diagram (or drawing) cerebral, is another term for the EEG. ʾal-Taẖṭīṭāt ʾal-dimāġiyyaẗ (التَخْطِيطات الدِمَاغِيّة) is the plural form.

The capitalist world system has been clearly condemned by both Shoghi Effendi and the Universal House of Justice. With the decisive legislative ruling by the House of Justice, global capitalism will, in my view, be brought down. In Some Answered Questions, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá was, in context, responding to a specific question about capitalism. That does not, in my opinion, indicate that He, in any fashion, necessarily supported the system.
    • “... an evil which the nation [the United States], and indeed all those within the capitalist system, though to a lesser degree, share with that state [the former Soviet Union] and its satellites regarded as the sworn enemies of that system—is the crass materialism, which lays excessive and ever-increasing emphasis on material well-being, forgetful of those things of the spirit on which alone a sure and stable foundation can be laid for human society.” (Shoghi Effendi, Citadel of Faith. Page 83.)
    • An ideology has “... callously abandon[ed] starving millions to the operations of a market system that all too clearly is aggravating the plight of the majority of mankind, while enabling small sections to live in a condition of affluence scarcely dreamed of by our forebears.” (The Universal House of Justice, The Promise of World Peace. Page 5.)

  4563. ʾal-Ra⫯asmāliyyaẗ ʾal-dawlaẗ ʾal-ʾiḥtikāriyyaẗ (الرَأْسمَالِيَّة الدَوْلَة الاِحْتِكَارِيَّة), capitalism of the state monopolized (or of the monopoly), is my Arabic-language translation of state-monopoly capitalism. This neo-Marxist perspective was developed by various scholars, including Jun Ikegami (Japanese, いけがみ じゅん or 池上 順, Ikegami Jun; or in Arabic جُون إِكِغَامِيّ, Ǧūn ⫯Ikiġāmiyy).
  4564. ʾal-Ra⫯asmāliyyaẗ ʾal-maḥsūbiyyaẗ (الرَأْسمَالِيَّة المَحْسُوبِيَّة), the capitalism of patronage (or favoritism), is crony capitalism.

  4567. ʾal-Rasm ʾal-ǧidāriyy (الرَسْم الجِدَارِيّ), painting on the wall, is the mural. ʾal-Rasmāt ʾal-ǧidāriyyaẗ (الرَسْمات الجِدَارِيّة), paintings on the wall, are murals.

  4571. ʾal-Rasūl (الرسول), with ʾal-Rusul (الرسل) as the plural form, is the Messenger or Apostle. ʾar-Rasūl ʾAllꞌah (الرسول الله‎) is the Messenger or Apostle of God. An alternate Qurʾânic term for Apostle, from the same root, is ʾal-Mursal (المرسل). ʾal-Mursalūn (المرسلان) and ʾal-mursalīn (الـمـرسـلـيـن) are plural forms. The message, also from the same root, is ʾar-risāla (الرسالة). See also the glossary entry, Apóstolos.
  4572. ʾal-Raṭānaẗ (الرَطَانَة) is lingo, jargon, jabber, or gibberish. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Raṭānaẗ ʾal-nafsiyyaẗ.

  4577. ʾal-Raykiyy (الْرَيْكِيّ) is an Arabization of Reiki (Japanese, 霊気, レイキ, or れいき). It is Japanese term for mysterious qì (see glossary entry). The Japanese word is used for numerous types of energy healing (by applying the hands). However, the original version of the system was developed by Mikao Usui or, Romanized as Chinese, Mikao Jiùjǐng (Japanese written in Chinese characters, 臼井甕男), 1865-1926 A.D.

It has been promoted by Episcopal (previously Roman Catholic) priest Matthew Fox (مَاثْيُو فُوكْس, Māṯyiw Fūks), born in 1940. See the glossary entries, ʾal-Kanīsaẗ ʾal-⫯Isqufiyaẗ and ʾal-Kanīsaẗ ʾal-Kāṯūlīkiyyaẗ ʾal-Rūmāniyyaẗ.

Her birth name was Mary Sutherland Maxwell, and she lived 1910-2000. (I met her once briefly at the New York City Bahá’í Center.) H̱ānum (خَانُم) is Persian for lady or madam. She was the wife of the Guardian of the Cause of God, Shoghi Effendi (see the glossary entry, Šawqiyy ⫯Afandiyy Rabbāniyy).
    • In addition, Rūḥiyyaẗ is the name of my late friend, given to her by ʽAbdu’l-Bahá, Rūḥiyyaẗ McComb or “Rouhieh McComb” (birth name, Musette Montana Jones). She was born in New York in 1904 and died in Hillsborough, FL, in 1987. Dear Rouhieh told me that she met ʽAbdu’l-Bahá at least 19 times in 1912 (early photo), and that He always spoke to her in English (see also the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥalwaỳ ʾal-ṣuẖẖūr w-ʾal-māˁu ʾal-ward).

Rūḥ ʾal-⫯Ilāhiyy ʾal-Malāk (رُوح الإِلَهِيّ الْمَلَاك), Divine Spirit (or Wind) the Angel, is my Arabic translation.
  4662. ʾal-Rūḥ ʾal-⫯iymān (الروح الإيمان) is the spirit of faith. It is, in my opinion, a term for faith (as attributes). Rūḥ-i ʾiymān (Persianized Arabic, روحِ ايمانی) is the Persianized Arabic spelling.
  4663. ʾal-Rūḥ ʾal-⫯insāniyy (الروح إِنْسانِيّ), spirit human, is the human spirit. Rūḥ-i ʾinsānī (روحِ انسانی) is the Persianized Arabic convention. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Nafs ʾal-nāṭiqaẗ.

Rūm (Hebrew, רוּם) is high or exalted. ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Mutaʿālī ʾal-Malāk (الله المُتَعَالِي الْمَلَاك), God the Exalted (or Transcendent) the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation.
  4669. ʾal-Rūmiyyyaẗ (الرُومِيَّة) is the Roman. ISIL has used Rūmiyyyaẗ (رُومِيَّة) as the new name for its periodical—presumably as a warning to the Vatican crusaders. ʾal-Rūmā (الرُومَا) is Rome.

  4673. ʾal-Rūtīniyyaẗ min ʾal-kārīzmā (الرُوتِينِيَّة مِنْ الكَاريزْمَا), including two Indo-European cognates, is the routinization of charisma (German, die Veralltäglichung des Charisma) or, literally, the routine of charisma. This concept, as developed by Max Weber (see the glossary entry, Māks Faybir), refers to the institutionalization of the charisma (authority based upon personal magnetism, saintliness, or heroism) of a religious leader as a social organization or a priesthood. Without such routinization, any new religious movement (NRM) will generally die out.
    • In the Bahá’í Faith, the charismata of the Báb, Bahá’u’lláh, and ʽAbdu’l-Bahá, the three Central Figures of the Bahá’í Faith, were routinized into the Bahá’í administrative order, including the Guardianship of Shoghi Effendi and the Universal House of Justice.
    • In ʾal-Taṣawwuf (see glossary entry), a ṭarīqaẗ (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ) is generally founded upon the routinization (social institutionalization) of the charisma of a deceased leader (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Imām).
    • “Routine” is from the French, route, a “customary way,” which, in turn, is derived from the Latin, rupta viā. Rupta is “broken” (in the sense of established or well-trodden). Viā is way or road. “Charisma” is from the Ancient Greek, chárisma (χάρισμα), “gift, grace, or favor.” The Ancient Greek, charísmata (χαρίσματα), is a plural form of the word.

The web can also be referred to by the pure English-language loanword, ʾal-wīb (الوِيب). See also the glossary entries, ʾal-⫯Intirnit and ʾal-Mūqqaʿ ʾal-⫯iliktrūniyy.

Sāḇəṯāʾ-šẹl-hā-ʿẠkāḇiyš hā-Mạləʾāḵə (סָבְתָא־שֶׁל־הָעַכָּבִישׁ הָמַלְאָךְ), Ǧaddaẗ-min-ʾal-ʿAnkabūt ʾal-Malāk (جَدَّة ـ مِنْ ـ العَنْكَبُوت الْمَلَاك), or Mādar Buzurg-i ʿAnkabūtī Farištah (Persian, مَادَر بُزُرْگِ عَنْکَبُوتِی فَرِشْتَه), Grandmother from (or of) the Spider the Angel, is Spider Grandmother the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām).

    • The term refers historically (by Shoghi Effendi), in a Bahá’í context, to the Ḥarrānities (ʾal-Ḥarrāniyyaẗ, الحَرَّانِيَّة) or universally (by Bahá’u’lláh) to both the Ḥarrānities and the Mandæans or, in Arabic, ʾal-Mandā⫯iyyūn (المَنْدَائيُّون). ʾal-Mandā⫯iyy (المَنْدَائيّ) is “the Mandæan.” In my opinion, Mandæanism may have resulted from the routinization of the charisma (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Rūtīniyyaẗ min ʾal-kārīzmā) of John the Baptist (see the glossary entry, Yōḥānān hā-Mạṭbiyl).
    • Either way, ʾal-Ṣābi⫯ūn should not be confused with ʾal-Saba⫯yūn (Arabic spelling, السَبأِيُون) of Sheba (Hebrew, שְׁבָא or Šəḇāʾ, and Arabic, سَبأَ or Sab⫯a), as recorded in the Hebrew Bible. The word, ʾal-Saba⫯yūn, does not appear in ʾal-Qurʾân (see glossary entry), but the story of Solomon (سُلَيْمَان, Sulaymān) and the Queen of Sheba (or بِلْقِيس, Bilqīs) is contained in chapter (See the glossary entry, ʾal-Sūraẗ) 27 (النَمْل, ʾan-Naml, the Ants).
    • In order to emphasize the spelling differences in the original languages, my suggestion is to represent ʾal-Ṣabāʾiyūn as “Shebans”. Unfortunately, the similarity in spelling between Sabæans and Sabians has added to the confusion. For instance, although some writers call the Ḥarrānities “Sabæans” and the Mandæans “Sabians,” the original word is, in both cases, Ṣābi⫯ūn. Further perplexing to some readers, other sources, including many Biblical translations, use “Sabæans” for the Shebans.

  4704. Śabda Pratāp Āśrama or Shabd Pratap Ashram (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, शब्द प्रताप आश्रम, Word of Power Monastery) is a Sūrat Śabda Yōga (see glossary entry) organization. Their Sanskrit simarana (see glossary entry) is: Dharā (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, धरा, “support” or, in common usage, “waterfall”) Sindhu (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, सिन्धु, “ocean,” “stream,” “flood,” “waters,” “sea,” or “Indus River”) Pratāpa (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, प्रताप, “heat,” “warmth,” “splendor,” “glory,” “majesty,” “power,” “strength,” or “energy”).

It translates as the witness or, roughly, as the person who bears witness. The term is used for “the martyr.” The ʾUrdū designation is šahād (شہید). The Persian form is šahīd (شهید). ʾal-ʾIstišhād (الاستشهاد), from the same root, is martyrdom. The ʾUrdū version is šahīdat (شہادت). The Persian term is šahādat (شهادت).
  4763. ʾal-Sāḥil ʾal-ẖalīǧ (السَاحِل الخَلِيج), the coast (or the seashore) of the gulf, is the gulf coast.
  4764. ʾal-Sāḥir (السَاحِر), with ʾal-sāḥirāt (السَاحِرَات) as the plural form, the wizard, the sorcerer, the magician, the witch, or the conjurer.
  4765. ʾal-Sāḥir ⫯Uwz (السَاحِر أُوْز) is the Wizard of Oz.
  4766. Šāhrāh (Persianized Arabic, شاهراه) is ʾal-Šarīʿaẗ (see glossary entry), way, or, in modern Persian, highway, expressway, freeway, or turnpike. See also the glossary entry, Bā Šāhrāh va bī Šāhrāh.
  4767. ʾal-Ṣahyūniyyaẗ (الصَهْيُونِيَّة), with ʾal-ṣahyūniyy (الصَهْيُونِيّ) as the possessive or an appurtenance (“the Zionist”), is Zionism. ʾal-Ṣahyūniyyīna (الصَهْيُونِيِّينَ) are the Zionists.
  4768. ʾal-Šāʿir (الشَاعِر) is the muse, the poet, or the bard. On the other hand, ta⫯ammala (تَأَمَّلَ) is the verb, “to muse.”
  4769. ʾal-Šaẖṣāniyyaẗ (الشَخْصانِيَّة), with ʾal-Šaẖṣāniyy (الشَخْصانِيّ) as the possessive or an appurtenance, is personalism, a diverse philosophical movement. ʾal-Šaẖṣān (الشَخْص) is “the person.”
  4770. Saint can be traced back to seint (Middle English), to saint (French masculine) and sainte (French feminine), to sānctus (Late Latin for holy), and to sancīre (Latin for to consecrate or to hallow). The Indo-European root is sak (to sacrifice, to sacrifice, or to make a treaty). A saint is a holy or virtuous person. Many of the individuals included in this glossary are, in my opinion, saints. The Sanskrit, saṃta (see glossary entry), is a false cognate with saint. See also the glossary entries, Gurū Nānaka, ʾal-Qiddīsi, Sainte Thérèse d’Ávila, and ʾal-Waliyy ʾAllꞌah.
  4771. Sainte (Ste) Thérèse d’Ávila (French) or St. Teresa of Ávila (1515-1582) was baptized as Teresa Sánchez de Cepeda y Ahumada (Spanish). I translated her name into Arabic as ʾal-Qiddīsaẗ Tayrīs ʾal-⫯Afīlā⫯iyy (القِدِّيسَة تَيرِيسْ الأَفِيلَائِيّ). ʾal-Ddirāsāt ʾal-Qiddīsaẗ Tayrīs (الدِّرَاسَات القِدِّيسَة تَيرِيسْ), the studies of saint Teresa, are Teresian studies.
    • She was an exceptional Roman Catholic mystic and the author of books on Christian mysticism and the spiritual world, including Interior Castle (or another translation of Interior Castle), The Way to Perfection, and numerous poems. Although Thérèse is commonly, and devotionally, referred to as a saint, she is, officially, a doctor of the Roman Catholic church (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭabīb min ʾal-kanīsaẗ), not a saint.
    • I consider Ste Thérèse d’Ávila to be a member of my spiritual family.
    • The etymology of “Teresa” is uncertain, but it may be derived from the Greek theros (θερος), “summer,” or thḗrízein (θήρίζεἰν), “to reap or to harvest.”
    See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Maʿād, ʾal-Qiddīsi, Saint, ʾal-Ṣalāẗ ʾal-ʿaqliyyaẗ, and ʾal-Waliyy ʾAllꞌah.
  4772. Saint John of the Apocalypse (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, Άγιος Ιωάννης της Αποκάλυψης, Hágios Iōánnēs tēs Apokálypsēs) is, in Arabic, ʾal-Qiddīsi Yaḥyaỳ min ʾal-Nihāyaẗ ʾal-ʿĀlim (القِدِّيسِ يَحْيَى مِنْ النِهَايَة العالِم), Saint John of the End of the World. He was, by His Own testimony, a divine Revelator, a Messenger of God (a lesser Prophet). He is also known as Iōánnēs tēs Pátmou (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, Ιωάννης της Πάτμου) or Yaḥyaỳ Baṭmus (يَحْيَى بَطمُس), John of Patmos.
    • The Hebrew version of “John” (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, Ιωάννης, Iōánnēs) is Yōḥānān (יוֹחָנָן) or Yəhōḥānān (יְהוֹחָנָן). The Arabic version is Yaḥyaỳ (يَحْيَى). John is “YHWH is the Gracious One or the Favorer.” See the glossary entry, YHWH. Apocalypse (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, Αποκάλυψης, Apokálypsēs) is Revelation, i.e., the Book of Revelation.
    • “The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show unto his servants, even the things which must shortly come to pass: and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John; who bare witness of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, even of all things that he saw. Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written therein: for the time is at hand.” (St. John, Revelation 1:1-3, American Standard Version. 1901.)
    See also the glossary entries, Apóstolos, ʾal-Rasūl, Saint, and Saint Paul.
  4773. Saint Paul (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, Άγιος Παῦλος, Hágios Paûlos) or ʾal-Qiddīsi Būlus (الْقِدِّيسِ بُولُس) was an Apostle (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, Άπόστολος, Apóstolos) or Messenger of God (a lesser Prophet). I have developed an intimate prayerful relationship with His divine Soul. He is, in my opinion, the spirit of Christian flexibility and relativism. Sadly, He has been misunderstood as a dogmatic (doctrinal) theologian.
    • St. Paul was not one of the apostles (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, απόστολοι, apóstoloi) appointed during the earthly Ministry of Jesus Christ. Nevertheless, beloved Paul proclaimed Himself to be an Apostle. St. Paul was born Shaul (Hebrew, שָׁאוּל, Šāʾūl; Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, Σαῦλος, Saûlos; Latin, Saulus; or in Arabic, شاؤول, Šā⫯ūl), Ask or Pray. After His Revelatory vision of Jesus, on the highway to Damascus (see the glossary entry, Dimašq ʾal-Šām), His divine Name became Paul (Latin, Paulus; Greek, Παῦλος, Paûlos; in Hebrew, פּוֹל, Pōl; or in Arabic, بُولُس, Būlus), Small or Humble.
    • “... [Some] Prophets are followers and promoters, for they are branches and not independent; they receive the bounty of the independent Prophets, and they profit by the light of the Guidance of the universal Prophets. They are like the moon, which is not luminous and radiant in itself, but receives its light from the sun.” (ʽAbdu’l-Bahá, Some Answered Questions. Page 164.)
    • “We cannot possibly add names of people we (or anyone else) think might be Lesser Prophets to those found in the Qur’án, the Bible and our own Scriptures. For only these can we consider authentic Books.” (From a letter, dated March 13, 1950, written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual Bahá’í, Lights of Guidance. Number 1696.)

Šāḵạr (Hebrew, ) is to hire or hired. Sākrī⫯īl ʾal-Malāk (سَاكْرِيئِيل الْمَلَاك) is my Arabized version. ʾIstāǧarat ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (اِسْتَأْجَرَت الله الْمَلَاك), Hired by God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation.
  4777. Šāḵəṣiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, שָׁכְצִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the King the Angel, is Shakziel (or Shaḳẓiel using an older Romanization system) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). This Angel allegedly has dominion over water insects (waterbugs). hā-Šāḵəṣiy (Hebrew, הָשָׁכְצ) may translate as “the king.” My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. Šākṣī⫯īl ʾal-Malāk (شَاكْصِيئِيل الْمَلَاك) is my Arabization.
  4778. Sākśātkāra (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, साक्षात्कार, or in the Southern Dravidian Kannaḍa language of India, ಸಾಕ್ಷಾತ್ಕಾರ). The word is Sanskrit for self-realization. See also the glossary entries, Drāviḍa and Kannaḍa.

  4782. ʾal-Salaka ʾas-Salām (السَلَكَ السَلام), the corps of peace, is the Peace Corps.
  4783. ʾal-Šalal ʾal-nawm (الشَلَل النَوْم), the paralysis of sleep, is sleep paralysis. It is a common explanation for so-called alien abductions (angelophanies). Indeed, angelophanies are visionary phenomena. As such, they can be easily distorted by the mind of the experiencer.
  4784. ʾas-Salām ʾal-⫯Amīrkiyy (السَلَام الأَمِيرْكِيّ), peace American, is pax Americana. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿAqīdaẗu Mūnrū.

Although I prefer a simple rendering of the term as either “connection” or “communion,” current usage favors retaining the original Arabic.
  4786. ʾal-Ṣalāẗ ʾal-ʿaqliyyaẗ (الصَلَاة العَقْلِيَّة), prayer mental, is mental prayer (Spanish, oración mental, prayer mental). It was advocated, using its original Spanish name, by Sainte Thérèse d’Ávila (see glossary entry). A more contemporary term for this devotional activity is ʾal-ṣalāẗ ʾal-dāẖaliyyaẗ (الصَلَاة الدَاخِلِيَّة), prayer interior, namely, interior prayer.
  4787. ʾal-Ṣalāẗ ʾal-ʾistimāʿ (الصَلَاة الاستماع), the prayer of listening, is listening prayer. It is a type of contemplative prayer (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣalāẗ ʾal-ta⫯mmuliyyah). See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Ṣalāẗ ʾal-tanaffasa, ʾal-Ṣalāẗ tawasīṭ, ʾal-Ṣalāẗ ʾal-Yahwih, and ʾal-Tanaffasa Yišūʿa.

  4792. ʾal-Ṣalāẗ ʾal-tanaffasa (الصَلَاة التَنَفَّسَ), the prayer of the breath, is the breath prayer, a type of contemplative prayer (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣalāẗ ʾal-ʿaqliyyaẗ). The practice has been advocated by Richard Foster (ريتْشارد فُستِر, Rītšārd Fustir), born in 1942. (He is not related to this “Foster.”) See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Ṣalāẗ ʾal-ʾistimāʿ, ʾal-Ṣalāẗ tawasīṭ, ʾal-Ṣalāẗ ʾal-Yahwih, and ʾal-Tanaffasa Yišūʿa.
  4793. ʾal-Ṣalāẗ tawasīṭ (الصَلَاة توسيط), prayer centering, is centering prayer, a type of contemplative prayer (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣalāẗ ʾal-ʿaqliyyaẗ). It is advocated by, among others, Thomas Keating (توما كيتنْغ, Tūmā Kītinġ), born in 1923. The practice resembles, and was perhaps inspired by, Transcendental Meditation (see the glossary entry, Ṭrānseṃḍaiṃṭala Dhyāna). See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Ṣalāẗ ʾal-ʾistimāʿ, ʾal-Ṣalāẗ ʾal-tanaffasa, ʾal-Ṣalāẗ ʾal-Yahwih, and ʾal-Tanaffasa Yišūʿa.

With two cognates, Sālim ʾal-Malāk (سَالِم الْمَلَاك), Salem the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Salḗm (Greek, Ἄγγελος Σαλήμ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. For the Semitic root of these two words for “peaceful,” see the glossary entry, Sallama. Compare with the glossary entries, Šālēmiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə and Šālēməyāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə.
  4797. Šālēməyāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, שָׁלֵמְיָה הָמַלְאָךְ), Peaceful in Yāhəwẹh (see the glossary entry, YHWH) the Angel, is Salemia (alternatively, Salmia, Selemia, Shelemiah, or Seleucia) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām).

Ángelos Salemia (Greek, Ἄγγελος Σαλεμια) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. For the Semitic root of these two words for “peaceful,” see the glossary entry, Sallama. Compare with the glossary entries, Šālēm hā-Mạləʾāḵə and Šālēmiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə.
  4798. Šālēmiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, שָׁלֵמִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Peaceful in ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Salamiel (alternatively, Satanail or Satomail) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). Šālēm (Hebrew, שָׁלֵם) is peaceful. With three cognates, Silmiyy fī ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (سِلْمِيّ فِي الله الْمَلَاك), Peaceful in God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation.

  4799. ʾal-Salfādūr (السَلْفَادُور) is El Salvador.
  4800. ʾal-Sālif (السالف), with ʾal-⫯aslāf (الأسلاف) as the plural form, is the predecessor. Each of the Prophets is ʾal-Sālif of the Prophets from the future. In my opinion, the concept of sālif (سالف) is related to the mystical concept of return (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Maʿād). See also the glossary entry, Mutaqaddim.
  4801. ʾal-Sālik (السالك), or ʾal-sālikūn (السالكون) as the plural form, is the wayfarer, such as on a spiritual journey. ʾal-ʾibn ʾal-sālik (ابن السالك), literally “son of the wayfarer,” is a needy traveler. The plural form is ʾal-⫯abnāˁ ʾal-sālikūn (الأبناء السالكون) for sons of the wayfarer. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Sayr w-ʾal-sulūk.
  4802. Sallama (سَلَّمَ), a verb, is “to surrender.” It is related to the nouns, ⫰Islām (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Islām), Muslim (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Muslim), Sulaymān or Solomon (سليمان‎, peace), and ssalām (سَّلَام, peace). In both Géʿzé (see glossary entry) and Amharic (see the glossary entry, ʾEmiréñā), “peace” is salām (ሰላም), based upon my own transliteration using the system of the Library of Congress and the American Library Association. The verb, sallū (سلُّو), to seek, is also related.
    • These words, among others, share the Semitic root, S-L-M (in Arabic, سلم, sīn-lām-mīm), which may be translated as, for instance, “whole,” “peace,” “safe,” “well-being,” “intact,” and “surrender.” Šālōm (שָׁלוֹם), ššālōm (שָּׁלוֹם), or “shalom”, a Hebrew noun for “peace,” is from the same root (in Hebrew, שׂלם, šīn-lāmed-mēm).
    • Peace, in Maltese, the only Semitic language written in a version of the Roman alphabet, is sliem (or, alternately, the Indo-European, non-Semitic “paċi”).
    • ʾal-Ssalāmu ʿālaykum (السَّلَامُ عَلَيكُم) is peace be upon you. The Hebrew cognate is šālōm ʿălēyəḵẹm (שָׁלוֹם עֲלֵיְכֶם). The Maltese cognate is sliem għalikom.
    • True peace, I feel, is found by surrendering one’s heart (or free will) to the Best Beloved.

Šāmạʿ (Hebrew, שָׁמַע) is to hear. With three cognates, Samʿ ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (سَمْع الله الْمَلَاك), Hearing God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Samyil (Greek, Ἄγγελος Σαμυιλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. Compare with the glossary entry, Šiməʿōn hā-Mạləʾāḵə. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Samʿ.

    • “It is clear that there has been, beginning with the ancient period, continuous contact and exchange between India and Iranian regions. This contact and exchange did not end in the Vedic period but can be found in almost every major historical period and political dynasty. The exchange was not unidirectional or a one-way diffusion either from some ‘Aryan’ civilization to India or from India outward. Rather, Sanskrit, like most cultural phenomena, developed over time through a joint process of cross-fertilization and regional innovations.” (Holly Jane Grether, “Sanskrit.” Encyclopedia of Global Religion. Mark Juergensmeyer and Wade Clark Roof, editors. Thousand Oaks, CA: SAGE Publications. 2011. Pages 1122-1124.)

  4908. Sātya Sāi Bābā (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, सत्य साईं बाबा), Sačā Sā⫯īṉ Bābā (ʾUrdū, سچا سائیں بابا), Sati⫯a Sā⫯īṁ Bābā (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਸਤਿਅ ਸਾਈਂ ਬਾਬਾ), or Satya Sā⫯ī Bābā (Gujarātī, સત્ય સાઈ બાબા) was an Indian guru (see glossary entry). He claimed to be the reincarnation of Śirḍī Sāi Bābā (see glossary entry). Sātya Sāi Bābā was born in 1926 and died in 2011. In Hindustānī, Sātya (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, सत्य) and Sāča (ʾUrdū, سچا) are defined by the adjective, “true” or “real.” Sāī (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, साई) is earnest. See the glossary entries, Sat and Sadagurū.
  4909. ʾal-Šahwaẗ ʾal-ǧinsiyyaẗ ʾal-silʿaẗ (الشَهْوَة الجِنْسِيَّة السِلْعَة), the desire sexual of the commodity, is commodity fetishism. It is a theory developed by Karl Marx.

    • ʾal-Šawq (الشَوْق) is Arabic for yearning or longing. The letter yāˁ (يَاء), represented by the ī (ي or in Persian, ʾUrdū, Šāh Mukhī Punjabi, and Maṣrī, ی) at the end of Šawq (شوق), makes the word a possessive or an appurtenance (my yearning or my longing), i.e., Šawqiyy (شَوْقِيّ). The Persian, ʾUrdū, and Maṣrī form is Šawqī (شَوْقِی).
    • ⫯Afandiyy (أَفَنْدِيّ or in Persian, ʾUrdū, Šāh Mukhī Punjabi, and Maṣrī, آفندی, ʾÂfandī) is a transliteration of the word efendi (Modern Turkish) when written in the Arabic alphabet. Literally, in historically formal Turkish address, efendi can be translated as “my lord.” In Modern Turkish, efendi is used much like “sir,” or, beginning in 1934 (in post-Ottoman Turkey), “mister.” The word comes from the modern Greek word, aphéntēs (αφέντης), which itself is derived from the Ancient Greek word, authéntēs (αὐθέντης), lord or doer. Therefore, efendi is, ultimately, a cognate with the English-language word, authentic. Efendi is, for instance, also used in reference to Šayẖ Nūr ʾal-Ǧarrāhī (see glossary entry).
    • Rabbāniyy (رَبَّانيّ or in Persian, ʾUrdū, Šāh Mukhī Punjabi, and Maṣrī, ربانی, Rabbānī), from the same Semitic root as the Hebrew word, rạbbiy, (see glossary entry) or “rabbi” (translated, like efendi, as my lord), and the Arabic word, rabbī (translated as my lord, lordly, or divine). See the glossary entry, Rạbbiy.

Sawsan (Arabic, Persian, and ʾUrdū, سَوْسَن), Šōšān (Hebrew, שׁוֹשָׁן), and the cognate “Šōšạnnāh” (Hebrew, שׁוֹשַׁׁנָּה), translate as “lily,” i.e., Lilian. This Angel visited me, in a dream (a contact experience), along with Emily the Angel (see the glossary entry, ʾẸmiyliy hā-Mạləʾāḵə). Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Zanbaq.
  4913. ʾal-Ṣawt (الصَوْت), with ʾal-⫯aṣwāt (الأَصْوَات) as the plural form, is the voice (alternatively, the noise, the sound, or the vote). ʾal-Ṣawtāni (الصَوْتَانِ), in the dual tense, are the two voices (alternatively, the two noises or the two sounds). When I worked as an on-air radio newscaster (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Muḏīʿu ʾal-⫯aẖbār), “the voice” was my nickname (from one of the disk jockeys or “jocks”).
  4914. ʾal-Ṣawt ʿabra ʾal-Prūtūkūl ʾal-⫯Intirnit (الصَوْت عَبْرَ البرُوتُوكُول الإِنْتِرْنِت), the voice over the protocol of the Internet, is Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP).

The term ʾal-šayẖ refers to a Ṣūfiyy (see glossary the entry, ʾal-Ṣūfiyy) leader. Śēkha (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, शेख, Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਸ਼ੇਖ, and Bengali, শেখ) is the Hiṃdī, Guramukhī Punjabi, and Bengali spelling. Šayẖ (شیخ) is the ʾUrdū and Persian form. ʾal-Šayẖ ʾal-šuyūẖ (الشيخ‎ الشيوخ) is the elder of elders.
  4917. Šayẖ Dàoshòubuddha or Sheikh Taoshobuddha (in ʾUrdū script, شيخ‎ تاؤشوبدھ, Šayẖ Tā⫯ušūbudah; in Dēvanāgarī script, शेख ताओस्होउबुद्ध, Śēkha Tāōshoubuddha; or in Guramukhī Punjabī script, ਸ਼ੇਖ ਤਾਓਸਹੋਉਬੁੱਧ, Śēkha Tā⫯ōsahō⫯ubudha) is a mixed compound term (combining word stems from different languages). Śēkha (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, शेख), Tāō (transliterated into Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, ताओ), and Buddha (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, बुद्ध) are taken from Hiṃdī and Sanskrit. Shou (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, स्होउ) is based upon my Dēvanāgarī transliteration from the original Chinese and its Romanization.
    • Born in 1951, Sheikh Taoshobuddha is a nephew of Rāma Candra (see glossary entry) and has further universalized the Naqšbandī (see glossary entry) Ṣūfiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣūfiyy) silsilaẗ (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Silsilaẗ) which was continued by Rāma Candra. Sheikh Taoshobuddha’s birth name was Brij Kumar Saksena (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, ब्रज कुमार सक्षण, Braja Kumāra Sakṣaṇa), multitude, prince, and victorious. I once had an extended telephone conversation with him.
    • Shòu (Traditional Chinese, 壽, shòu; or Simplified Chinese, 寿, shòu) is the blessing of longevity. According to Sheikh Taoshobuddha, “The word Sho implies, that which is vast like the sky and deep like an ocean and carries within its womb a treasure as ‘Bliss.’”

It is an ⫰Islāmic messianic movement which was started by Šayẖ ⫯Aḥmad bin Zayn ʾal-Ddīn bin ⫰Ibrāhīm ʾal-⫯Ašā⫯iyy (شَيخ أَحْمَد بِن زَين الدِّين بِن إبراهيم الأحسائِيّ). He lived 1753–1826. After his death, he was succeeded by Siyyid (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Sayyid) Kāzim-i Raštī (Persianized Arabic, سِیِّدِ کاظم رَشْتِی‎). He is also known, in Arabic, as Sayyid Kāẓim bin Qāsim ʾal-Ḥusayniyy ʾal-Rraštiyy (سَيِّد كاظم بن قاسم الحسينِيّ الرَّشْتِيّ‎). He lived 1793–1843. ʾal-Šayẖiyyaẗ continues to have a following on the Perso-Arabian Gulf (see the glossary entry, ʾal-H̱alīǧ ʾal-Fārisiyy ʾal-ʿArabiyy). However, in the nineteenth century, some members of the movement became adherents of the Bábí Faith. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Bāb, ʾal-Bābiyaẗ, Dīn-i Bābī, and ʾal-Šayẖ.

He used to host a spiritually themed interview show on listener-supported WBAI-FM radio in New York City. Lex Hixon also founded Free Spirit magazine (now called New York Spirit).
    • Lex practiced a participatory approach to universal spirituality. In addition to being a Ṣūfiyy šayẖ, he was actively engaged in Zen Buddhism (see the glossary entry, Zen), Vedānta (see the glossary entry, Veda), and Russian Orthodoxy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Kanīsaẗ ʾal-⫯Urṯūḏaksiyyaẗ ʾal-Rūwsiyyah). He was originally a disciple of Sri Chinmoy (see the glossary entry, Śrī Cinmaya).

In this writer’s view, Satan is a metaphor for ʾal–nafs (see glossary) and for individuals, especially powerful ones, who are dominated by their lower nature.

    • Throughout my life, I, like many other Autists, have run into many bullies to whom I, subjectively, would attribute Schadenfreude. These experiences have informed my work in both social theory and the sociology of religion.

The term is a symbol of the Manifestation of God, the Tree beyond which there is no passing. The Prophets are the Alpha (Greek, Άλφα) and the Ōméga (Greek, Ωμέγα), the Beginning and the End, or, in effect, the A-Z. Ultimately, the Tree of Life (see the glossary entry, hā-ʿĒṣ hā-Ḥạyiym) is the Manifestation of God. Compare with the glossary entry, Gāḏēriyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə.

  5019. Ṣīġah (Persian, صیغه), “concubinage,” is the legal practice of temporary (or trial) marriage in ʾIyrān. A similar, but not identical, idea, known as companionate marriage, was advocated in the U.S.
    • “It [a chaste and holy life] condemns ... the practices of nudism and companionate marriage.” (Shoghi Effendi, The Advent of Divine Justice. Page 31.)
    • “... the extension of the influence and activities of those ‘prophets of decadence’ who advocate companionate marriage ... [appears to be one of] the outstanding characteristics of a decadent society, a society that must either be reborn or perish.” (Shoghi Effendi, The World Order of Bahá’u’lláh. Page 188.)
    • “The Companionate Marriage ... [is] ‘legal marriage with legalized birth control, and with the right to divorce by mutual consent for childless couples, usually without payment of alimony.’” (Judge Ben B. Lindsey and Wainwright Evans, The Companionate Marriage. Garden City, NY: Garden City Publishing. 1929. Page xiii.) The authors dissociate companionate marriage, in which a couple admits the (nullifying) possibility that the marriage may be unsuccessful, from trial marriage, as institutionalized promiscuity. In my opinion, that distinction between two negatives is without much of a difference.

  5020. Sīġmūnd Fruwīd (سِيغْمُونْد فْرُوِيد) is Sigmund Freud. He was the originator of psychoanalysis. From a sociological perspective, he influenced the development of critical social theory. Within both psychiatry (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭṭibbu ʾal-nafs) and clinical psychology (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿIlmu ʾal-nafs ʾal-ssarīriyy), the dominance of his perspectives has, fortuitously, waned. Freud was born in 1856 A.D. and died in 1939 A.D.

    • During the 1400s A.D., Gurū Nānaka (see glossary entry), God bless his dear soul, founded this monotheistic religion, an important part of the Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement (see glossary entry), in the South Asian Punjab. Sikhism was partially inspired by the beautiful Sānəṭ-Kạbiyr hā-Mạləʾāḵə (see glossary entry). In the main tradition of Sikhism, Gurū Nānaka was followed by nine other gurus (see the glossary entry, Guru). The current guru is the Sikh corpus of sacred scriptures, the Śrī Gurū Gratha Sāhiba Jī (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਸ਼੍ਰੀ ਗੁਰੂ ਗ੍ਰੰਥ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਜੀ) also called the Ādi Gratha (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਆਦਿ ਗ੍ਰੰਥ) or, simply, the Gratha or Grath (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਗ੍ਰੰਥ).

In Anglicized Arabic, a silsilaẗ (سِلْسِلَة‎) is sometimes interpreted as a sub-ṭarīqaẗ (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ). For a similar concept in Judaism, see the glossary entry, hā-Ṣadiqiym. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Silsilaẗ ʾal-ḏahab.

  5028. Simarana (Gurmurkhī Punjabi, ਸਿਮਰਨ, simarana, or Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, सिमरन, simarana) is Punjabi for remembrance. It is derived from the Sanskrit, smaraṇa (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, स्मरण), remembering or recalling. In nāma simarana (Gurmurkhī Punjabi, ਨਾਮੁ ਸਿਮਰਨ), one remembers (meditates on) the nāma (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, नाम), a cognate and synonym with the English-language word, name. For instance, among the neo-Sikh Rādhā Svāmī Satsaṅga Byāsa (see glossary entry) and some of its branches (see the glossary entry, Sūrata Śabda Yōga), simarana is practiced by silently repeating the Paṅca Namaḥ (see glossary entry). Compare simarana with the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḏikr. See also the glossary entry, Japa.

    • Šīnəʿọr was located in Mesopotamia (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Bilād ʾal-Rāfidayn).
    • “Now the whole earth had one language and the same words. And as they migrated from the east, they came upon a plain in the land of Shinar [Šīnəʿọr] and settled there. And they said to one another, ‘Come, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly.’ And they had brick for stone, and bitumen for mortar. Then they said, ‘Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves; otherwise we shall be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.’ The LORD [Hebrew, יהוה, YHWH] came down to see the city and the tower, which mortals had built. And the LORD said, ‘Look, they are one people, and they have all one language; and this is only the beginning of what they will do; nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them. Come, let us go down, and confuse their language there, so that they will not understand one another’s speech.’ So the LORD scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city. Therefore it was called Babel, because there the LORD confused the language of all the earth; and from there the LORD scattered them abroad over the face of all the earth.” (Genesis 11:1-9, New Revised Standard Version.)

    • I overheard my parents talking about going on a trip, and I asked if I could travel along with them. While walking toward the car, I saw and recognized various people, including celebrities. Then, I began driving in a car with both of my parents and two celebrities (played by Cynthia and Robert) in the back seat. We were going to take a flight in a plane owned by another celebrity. I bragged about how I have met various celebrities, including the one who owns the plane, and I mentioned him by name. Along the way, we stopped off to get various unusual foods, all delicacies. I stated that I will, over the summer, be taking a trip (possibly to China and Haiti). My mother cautioned me that China is a “dangerous dump” with prisons, and that I should stay away (strange). If you take a paid tour, I replied, you miss all the danger. We drove by an Amtrak station and a “state train” going to Gary, Indiana. At that point, I jokingly asked if anyone knew the (silly) “Gary, Indiana” song, and I started singing it.
    • The names, Cynthia and Robert came to me in a meditation. In effect, the message from my parents is that I was welcome with them, and they will feed me delicacies. All is now forgiven on my end. They will make up for my childhood difficulties with my them, including being asked not to eat many foods I liked in the closet. My conclusion, from the meditation, is that I will, relatively soon, be taking a blessed journey with my parents in the next world. Perhaps that explains why, recently, I have been feverishly trying to decide on where to retire.

My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.
  5074. Ṣiyṣiyṯiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, צִיצִיתִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Tassel of ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is my approximation of Zeziel (or “Tzitzitiel”) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). hā-Ṣiyṣiyṯ (Hebrew, צִיצִית) or the tzitzit is the tuft of hair, the tassel, the forelock, the frill, or the fringe. Šurrābaẗ ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (شُرَّابَة الله الْمَلَاك), Tassel (alternatively, Fringes or Tuft) of God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. ʾal-Šurrābāt (الشُرَّابَات) are fringes, tassels, or tufts.

This Being might have been the Preceptor (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Muʿallim) of His Blessed Presence Siddhārtha Gautama Buddha (see the glossary entry, Buddha). Her name in Chinese is Bái-Sǎn-Gài-Fú-Dǐng (Chinese, 白傘蓋佛頂).
  5078.

  5082. Siyyid Muḥammad-i Ḥusaynī (ʾUrdūized Arabic, سیدن مُحَمَّد ِ حسینی), also known as H̱awāǧa Bandā Nawāz (ʾUrdūized Arabic, خواجہ بندہ نواز), lived 1322-1423 A.D. He was the individual who spread the Čištī (see glossary entry) order (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ) within India. H̱awāǧa Bandā Nawāz was from Delhi (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, दिल्ली, Dillī), India.
  5083. Siyyid Šāh Muḥammad Ġawṯ-i Šaṭṭārī (Persianized Arabic, سِیِّد شَاه مُحَمَّد غَوْثِ شطّاری), circa 1502-1563 A.D., was one of the better known figures associated with ʾal-Šaṭṭāriyyaẗ (see glossary entry). He spent time in India, and he translated an originally Sanskrit Yogic text, Amṛtakuṇḍa (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, अमृतकुण्ड, Pool of Nectar), from Arabic (حَوْض المَاء الحَيَاة, Hawḍ ʾal-Māˁ ʾal-Ḥayāẗ, Pool or Cistern of the Water of Life) into Persian (with an Arabic title, بَحْر الحَيَاة, Baḥr ʾal-Ḥayāt, Sea or Ocean of Life). Amṛta (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, अमृत) is nectar. Kuṇḍa (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, कुण्ड) is pool. Siyyid Šāh Muḥammad Ġawṯ-i Šaṭṭārī was a brilliant luminary in the Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement (see glossary entry).
  5084. Ṣiy-Zūs hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, צִי־זוּס הָמַלְאָךְ) and Tšī-Zūs ʾal-Malāk (تْشِي ـ زُوس الْمَلَاك), God of the Dawn Light (Pawnee language) the Angel, are, respectively, my Hebraized and Arabized spellings of Chee-Zoos the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin).
  5085. Smṛtī (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, स्मृति), in Sanskrit, or satī (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, सती), in Pāli, is usually translated as mindfulness. However, according to Emory University’s John Dunne, in this brief clip from one of his lectures, “retention” may be a more accurate translation. Compare “retention” with ḏikr (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḏikr) and the Hiṃdī word, simarana (see glossary entry), which both translate as remembrance. Satī involves keeping (or retaining) one’s thoughts, feelings, and breath in mind. Please read my short compilation on this subject.
  5086. Sōbẹq hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, סוֹבֶּק הָמַלְאָךְ), Sūbayk ʾal-Malāk (سُوبَيك الْمَلَاك), Sūbik Farištah (Persian, سُوبِک فَرِشْتَه), or Ángelos Soûchos (Ancient Greek, Ἄγγελος Σοῦχος), Uniter (Ancient Egyptian) the Angel, is Sobek the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin).
  5087. Sociologie (French for sociology) is a mixed compound term (combining word stems from different languages) which was independently coined by French philosopher, Auguste Comte (see the glossary entry, ⫯Awġust Kūnt). However, the term, sociologie, was originally used by the French essayist, Emmanuel Joseph Sieyès (1748-1846). The Latin, sociō, is “associated” or “allied.” Sociō is derived from the Latin, socius, sharing. The Indo-European root is sek, to follow. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Fīzyāˁʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ, ʾal-ʿIlmu ʾal-⫯iǧtimāʿa, and -logy.
  5088. Sōkrátēs (Ancient Greek, Σωκράτης) is Socrates. The Arabic cognates are Sūkrātīs (سُوْكْرَاتِيس) and Suqrāṭ (سُقْرَاط).
  5089. hā-Šōfār (שׁוֹפָר) is Hebrew for horn. ʾal-Ṣuwira (الصُور) is an Arabic word for a (musical) horn or trumpet.
    • The Hebrew-language term refers to the Biblical ram’s horn (originally, the deer’s horn) or, in some translations, the trumpet.
    • “... qạl šp̄ār ḥāzāq məʾḏ ....” (Hebrew, ”... קַל שׁפָר חָזָק מְאד ....“) or, in English, “... [the swift] sound of a ram’s horn [was increasingly] very strong ....” (Exodus 19:16. Literal Translation of the Holy Bible.)
  5090. Sōnniyy hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, סוֹנִּיּ הָמַלְאָךְ), Sūnniyy ʾal-Malāk (سُونِّيّ الْمَلَاك), Sūnnī Farištah (Persian, سُونِّی فَرِشْتَه, or ʾUrdū, سُونِّی فَرِشْتَہ), or Ángelos Sónny (Greek, Ἄγγελος Σόννυ), Descendant (Old English) the Angel, is Sonny (as an affectionate modern English-language term for “son”) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. On June 7ᵗʰ, 2015, Archangel Sonny came to me in a dream, along with Archangel Douglas (see the glossary entry, Ḏūḡəlās hā-Mạləʾāḵə) and Archangel Josephine (see the glossary entry, Ḡə′ōzẹp̄iyn hā-Mạləʾāḵə), to facilitate a meeting with the late Roy Bhaskar.
  5091. Sōpədẹṭ hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, סוֹפְּדֶּט הָמַלְאָךְ), Sūbdit ʾal-Malāk (سُوبْدِت الْمَلَاك), Sūpdit Farištah (Persian, سُوپْدِت فَرِشْتَه), or Ángelos Sopntét (Greek, Ἄγγελος Σοπντέτ), Sharp One (Ancient Egyptian) the Angel, is Sopdet (Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, Sopdet) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.
  5092. Sōp̄ēriyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, סוֹפֵרִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Scribe of ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Sopheriel (alternatively, Soperiel, Sofriel, or Sopher) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). hā-Sōp̄ēr (Hebrew, הָסוֹפֵר) is the scribe or the secretary. Sūfayrī⫯īl ʾal-Malāk (سُوفَيرِيئِيل الْمَلَاك) is an Arabization of the Angel’s name. Ángelos Sopheriḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Σοφεριήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  5093. Šōp̄əṭiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, שֹׁפְטִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Judge in ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Shoftiel the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). hā-Šōp̄əṭiym (Hebrew, הָשֹׁפְטִים), with hā-šōp̄əṭ (Hebrew, הָשֹׁפְט) as the singular form, are the judges. Šūftī⫯īl ʾal-Malāk (شُوْفْتِيئِيل الْمَلَاك) is my Arabization.
  5094. Sōp̄iyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, סוֹפִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), End in ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Sophiel (or Sofiel) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). hā-Sōp̄ (Hebrew, הָסוֹף) is the end. Nihāyaẗ fī ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (نِهَايَة فِي الله الْمَلَاك), End in God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Sophiḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Σοφιήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾĒyn Sōp̄.
  5095. Šọqạḏ-Ḥōzẹh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, שָׁקַד־חוֹזֶה הָמַלְאָךְ), Striving (or Laboring) of a Prophet (or a Seer) the Angel, is Soqed Hozi (alternatively, Shoqed Chozi, Soqedhozi, or Skd Huzi) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). He is the Angel of Partnership. Ǧihād-Ḥālim ʾal-Malāk (جِهَاد ـ حَالِم الْمَلَاك), Striving of a Visionary (or a Dreamer) the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. ʾal-Ḥālimūna (الحَالِمُونَ) are the visionaries or the dreamers.
  5096. Sōrūš hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, סוֹרוּשׁ הָמַלְאָךְ), Surūš ʾal-Malāk (سُرُوش الْمَلَاك) or Šrūša ʾal-Malāk (سْرُوشَ الْمَلَاك), Šrūša Farištah (Persian, سْرُوشَ فَرِشْتَه, and ʾUrdū, سْرُوشَ فَرِشْتَہ), and Ángelos Sōroús (Greek, Ἄγγελος Σωρούς), Obedience or Observance (Ancient Avestan) the Angel, refer to Soroush (alternatively, Surush, Saroush, Suroush, Sorush, Surush, Sarush, or Sraosha) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. Šrūša (سْرُوشَ) was an originally Ancient Avestan term for obedience or observance.
  5097. hā-Sūllām Yạʿăqōḇ (Hebrew, הָסֻלָּם יַעֲקֹב), the ladder of Jacob, is Jacob’s Ladder (Genesis 28:10-19). With two cognates, ʾal-Sullam Yaʿqūb (الْسُلَّم يَعْقُوب), the ladder of Jacob, is an Arabic-language translation. In my opinion, Jacob’s dream affirms the vertical connections made by the Archangels, through Their work in the Divine Council (see the glossary entry, hā-Bạʿădạt-ʾĒl), between departed souls in the next world and incarnated human beings in this world, as well as between different physical worlds and dimensions of human beings (as with apparent extraterrestrial images in some crop circles). The operations of the Archangels become, metaphorically, a Stairway to Heaven. hā-Sūllāmōṯ (Hebrew, הָסֻלָּמוֹת) and ʾal-salālim (الْسَلَالِم) are the ladders. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Samawāt w-ʾal-⫯Arḍ wa-mā bayna-humā.
  5098. Sōtēría (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, σωτηρία) is salvation in the Christian New Testament. It is related to the Biblical verb, sṓizō (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, σῴζω), to save or to rescue.
  5099. Soulology is a German-Latin mixed compound word (combining stems from different languages). “Soul” is derived from the Old English forms of the word, sāl and sāwol. In turn, these words are related to the Old Frisian form, sēle, the Old Saxon form, sēola, and the Old High German form, sēula, soul.
    • I began writing the book, Introduction to Soulology, when I was eleven years, and I completed it at twelve years old. It was my early attempt, prior to joining the Bahá’í Faith, to establish my own religion.
    • The two basic concepts in the book were bidimensionality (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṯunā⫯iyyaẗ ʾal-⫯abʿād) and schizophrenia (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Fuṣām). As is evident in this glossary, I have developed a revised concept of multidimensionality later in my life. While I was writing the book on Soulology, I was still (mis)diagnosed with childhood schizophrenia.
    • My own Arabic approximation of Soulology would be ʾal-ʿIrfāniyyaẗ ʾal-Nafsiyyaẗ (العِرفَانِيَّة النَفْسِيَّة), the mystical knowledge (or gnōsis) pneumatic (alternatively, of the soul, mental, psychological, or psychic). ʾal-Nafsiyy (النَفْسِيّ), the possessive or an appurtenance, is “soulologist” (as well as “psychological”).
    See also the glossary entries, -logy and ʾal-Nafs.
  5100. South Asia is a geographical category which includes an area once widely referred to as the Indian Subcontinent (now the South Asian subcontinent).
    • Corresponding terms in some other languages are: ʾal-Ǧanūb ʾal-ʾÂsiyā (الجنوب الآسيا), Ǧanūbī-i ʾAyšā (ʾUrdū, جنوبیِ ایشیا), Ǧanūb-i ʾÂyšā (Persian, جنوبِ آسیا), Dakṣiṇa Eśiyā (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, दक्षिण एशिया), Dakṣiṇa Ēśiẏā (Bengali, দক্ষিণ এশিয়া, or Kannaḍa, ದಕ್ಷಿಣ ಏಷ್ಯಾ), Dakṣiṇa Āsiyā (Tegulu, దక్షిణ ఆసియా), Dakṣiṇa Āśiyā (Dēvanāgarī Marāṭhī/Sanskrit script, दक्षिण आशिया), Dakhaṇa Ēśi⫯ā (Guramukhī Punjabi, ਦੱਖਣ ਏਸ਼ਿਆ), Dakṣiṇa Ēśiyā (Gujarātī, દક્ષિણ એશિયા), Teṟaku Āciyāvil (Tamiḻ, தெற்கு ஆசியாவில்), Dakṣiṇēṣya (Malayaḷaṃ, ദക്ഷിണേഷ്യ), or Güney Asya (Modern Turkish).
    • This region includes (debatably among others): India (see the glossary entry, Bhārata Gaṇarājya), Bangladesh (see the glossary entry, Bānlādēśa), Pākistāna (see glossary entry), Sri Lanka (in the Siṁhala language or Sinhalese, ශ්‍රී ලංකාව, Śrī Laṃkāva), Nepāl (in the Nepālī language, नेपाल), Afghanistan (see the glossary entry, ʾAfġānistān), Bhutan (in the Dzongkha language, འབྲུག་ཡུལ་, ’Brug-yul), Myanmar or Burma (Burmese, Myăma, Myăma), the Chinese Autonomous Region of Tibet (Tibetan, བོད་, Bhö), and the Maldives (in the Tāna script of the Divehi language, ދިވެހިރާއްޖޭގެ ޖުމްހޫރިއްޔާ, Divehirāʿjēge Jumhūriʿyā, Republic of the Maldives).
    • South Asia gave birth to the Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement (see glossary entry). This region was also home to the Ancient Indus Valley Civilization (3300–1300 B.C.). The trading network of that South Asian civilization even included Ancient Persia (modern-day ʾIyrān) and Ancient Mesopotamia (in modern-day, ʿIrāq and some surrounding areas), which are both usually classified under West Asia (see glossary entry).
    See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Bilād ʾal-Rāfidayn and Dhārmika Āsthāoṃ.
  5101. Śrī (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, श्री, śrī; Bengali, শ্রী, śrī; or Telugu, శ్రీ, śrī) is derived from the Sanskrit word, śrīmān (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, श्रीमान्), beautiful. Šrī (شری) and srī (سری) are alternate ʾUrdū spellings. The word, śrī, can be translated as beautiful, majestic, divine, splendrous, or opulent. Prefixing śrī before someone’s name, as in Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu (see the glossary entry, Səʾạṣi′yāh-Məʾạṭāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə), is a bit like saying “lord” or, as a form of respectful address, “my lord.”
  5102. Śrī Aravinda or Sri Aurobindo (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, श्री अरविन्द, Śrī Aravinda; or Bengali, শ্রী অরবিন্দ, Śrī Arabinda or Śara Arabanada), “beautiful lotus,” lived 1872-1950. Śra Arabaṇda is my own alternate Bengali Romanization using the system from the Library of Congress and the American Library Association. His birth name was Aravinda Ghoṣa (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, अरविन्द घोष, Aravinda Ghoṣa; or Bengali, অরবিন্দ ঘোষ, Arabinda Ghōṣa). Arabaṇda Ghasha is my own alternate Bengali Romanization using the system from the Library of Congress and the American Library Association. Ghoṣ or Ghasha (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, घोष, or Bengali, ঘোষ) is a common name of the Indian caste of writers.
    • Śrī Aravinda was born into a Hindu family in present-day Bangladesh (see the glossary entry, Bānlādēśa), which was then a part of India (see the glossary entry, Bhārata Gaṇarājya). The system of spiritual practice Aravinda developed is called Pūrṇa Yōga (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, पूर्ण योग), complete, full, fulfilled, perfect, or satisfied union. Pūrṇa Yōga is usually translated into English as “integral yōga.”

  5155. Subud (Javanese written in the Roman script, Subud; and Javanese writen in the Arabic script, سبد, Subud or, alternately, سوبود, Sūbūd) is a Javanese mystical tradition. (The Javanese language is frequently written in either the Roman or Arabic alphabet.) In 1934, the movement was founded by the Indonesian visionary Pak [Indonesian for “papa” or “mister”] Muhammad Subuh Sumohadiwidjojo (Javanese written in the Roman script) or Bāk Muḥammad Ṣubuḥ Sūmūhādīwīdǧūǧū (Javanese written in the Arabic script, باك مُحَمَّد صبح سوموهاديويدجوجو). He lived 1901-1987 A.D. He may have been inspired by the heavenly ʾal-Qādiriyyaẗ (see glossary entry) Ṣūfiyy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṣūfiyy) order (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ).
    • The word “Subud” is an acronym formed from the Javanese words, susila, budhi, and dharma (see glossary entry). Susila is from the Sanskrit, śuṣila (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, शुषिल), air, gas, or wind. Budhi is from the Sanskrit, bōdhi (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, बोधि), awakened (see the glossary entry, Buddha). Subud can, therefore, be roughly translated as the natural law of the awakening wind. The major Subud activity is called latihan kejiwaan (Indonesian language, practice psychological, psychiatric, or mental) or, simply, latihan (Indonesian language, practice). Reported results include the neurological tremors which are often associated with kuṇḍalinī (see glossary entry) experiences and various vocalizations (see the glossary entry, Glōssolalía).
    • “... [One] phenomenon, making use of some Sufi ideas and practices, is known to thousands in the West as ‘Subud.’ Its procedure is mainly based on the Naqshbandi-Qadiri methods, but in its current presentation these have been turned upside down. In the Subud meeting called the Latihan, the member waits for certain experiences, believed to be the working of God within him. Some are slightly affected, some profoundly, some not at all. The interesting thing here is that Subud attitude values the experience, and many people who are not affected or who cease to perceive it drift away. The remainder are the stalwarts of the movement. But, according to Sufi ideas and practice, it is precisely those who do not feel subjective states, or who have at one time been affected by them and no longer feels them, who may be real candidates for the next stage. To the Sufi, one who does not know this may appear like a man, trying to exercise his muscles, who thinks the exercises are no good because he no longer feels stiffness in his limbs. The gains of Subud are offset, at least in part, by the losses.” (Idries Shah, The Way of the Sufi. London: The Octagon Press. 1980. Pages 21-22.)
    • “Indiscriminate indulgence in the Latihan exercise has been known to give rise to a condition now referred to in the medical literature as ‘Subud psychosis.’” (Idries Shah, The Way of the Sufi. London: The Octagon Press. 1980. Page 43.)
    • “Pak Subuh is known to have held the 12th century Sufi teacher Abdul Qadir al-Jilani [see the glossary entry, Abd ʾal-Qādir ʾal-Ǧīlānī] in high esteem, saying that he had received the latihan on an equivalent level to Subuh himself.” (Dirk Campbell, “Subud and Sufism.” Dirk Campbell. Website. November, 2010. Retrieved on January 29, 2014.)

These words have an uncertain origin (etymology). However, the most widely accepted academic view is that they come from ṣūf (صُوف), wool. Thus, a Ṣūfiyy would be a “woolen one,” signifying the garments in which certain Ṣūfiyyāt (صُوفِيَّات) once clothed themselves. Although the term, “Ṣūfiyy” (صُوفِيّ) refers specifically to a Muslim mystical lover, the definition has frequently been expanded to include Islamicate (see glossary entry) spiritual activities. The form, “Ṣūfism,” is a Westernization. See also the glossary entry, Bā Šāhrāh va bī Šāhrāh.

  5210. ʾal-Šurṭaẗ (الشُرْطَة) is the police. In my opinion, the police, taken as a whole, are neither heroes nor villains. They are just regular human beings. Those who argue that the benefit of the doubt should be given to police in “shootings” are, in effect, saying that police should be held to a lower standard than the general public. Rather, police, because of their training and responsibilities, should be held to higher standard than the general public. If they fall from that standard, their punishment should be especially harsh. Historically, the police have reflected the common forms of false consciousness in a society. In the U.S., the police have served to protect the capitalist world system, including the structures of racism, sexism, and classism. Using the excuse, “you should always listen to cops,” is blaming the victim. If someone is abusing a victim, the fact that he or she happens to be a cop is irrelevant to the situation. Nevertheless, the cop should be punished more severely than others. As I see it, police should be hired, fired, and managed by boards of civilian leaders in local neighborhoods, such as community organizers.
  5211.

  5212. Sūsəʾārəṭəhəʾạḇəʾạhāḥ hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, סוּסְאָרְטְהְאַבְאַהָח הָמַלְאָךְ), Sūsārthāfāhāḥ ʾal-Malāk (سُوسَارْتْهَافَاهَاح الْمَلَاك), Susārthavāha Farištah (ʾUrdū, سُسَارتھَوَاہَ فَرِشْتَہ), Susārathavāha Farišatah (Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, سُسَارَتھَوَاہَ فَرِشَتَہ), Susārthavāhaḥ Fariśtā (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, सुसार्थवाहः फ़रिश्ता), or Susārathavāha Fariśatā (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਸੁਸਾਰਥਵਾਹ ਫ਼ਰਿਸ਼ਤਾ) is Susarthavaha (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, सुसार्थवाहः, Susārthavāhaḥ) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām).

It has the same Indo-European root as the English-language word, “sew.”
  5218. ʾal-Ṣuʿūbaẗ (الصُعُوبَة), with ʾal-Ṣuʿūbāt (الصُعُوبَات) as the plural form, is the difficulty. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-ʾIẖtibar.

  5220. ʾal-Ṣūr (الصُور), with ʾal-ṣūraẗ (الصُورَة) as the singular, is “forms.” The singular term, with a dot below the letter s, should not be confused with ʾal-sūraẗ (see glossary entry).
  5221. ʾal-Ṣuʿūd w-ʾal-Suqūṭ ʾal-⫯Imbrāṭūriyyaẗ ʾal-Rūmāniyyaẗ (الصُعُود وَالسُقُوط الإِمْبْرَاطُورِيَّة الرُومَانِيَّة), the rise (alternately, the rising or the ascent) and the fall of the empire Roman, is my Arabic-language translation of the Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire.

My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.
  5224. ʾal-Ṣuwwam (الصُوَّم) and ʾal-ṣṣiyāmu (الصِّيَامُ) refer to the fast, fasting, or abstinence.
  5225. ʾal-Ṣuwwam ʾal-Kabīr (الصُوَّم الكَبِير), the fast (or abstinence) great, is Lent.
  5226. Sūyāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, סוּיָה הָמַלְאָךְ), Suwā ʾal-Malāk (سُوَا الْمَلَاك), Ángelos Soúa (Greek, Ἄγγελος Σούα), or Sua-Tenshi (Japanese, スア天使), East (Chibcha language of the Muisca First-Nations people of Colombia) the Angel, is Sua (alternatively, Bachica or Nemquetaha) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām).

According to Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, a communist society is both stateless and without capitalism. The common definition, found in the United States and some other countries, of communism as a dictatorial state reflects a misunderstanding of the term’s historical usage. The Former Soviet Union and Mainland China never officially designated themselves “communist.” The USSR was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Mainland China, which has long since abandoned socialism anyway, is the People’s Republic of China. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Šuyūʿiyyaẗ ʾal-budā⫯iyyaẗ.

Cooperative communism would be characterized by cooperatives, statelessness, and localism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-H̱āṣṣiyyaẗ ʾal-maḥalliyyaẗ).
  5232. Svāmī or swami (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, स्वामी) is lord or respected master.

See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Kanīsaẗ ʾal-Ǧadīdaẗ and ʾal-Kanīsaẗ al-Quds ʾal-Ǧadīdaẗ.

  5246. ʾal-Taʿālīm (التَعَالِيم), with ʾal-taʿālīmāt (التَعَالِيمات) as the plural form, is teaching. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Taʿlīm.
  5247. ʾal-Taʿālīmāt min ⫰Ibrāhīm (التَعَالِيمات مِنْ إبراهيم), the teachings of (or from) Abraham, is my own Arabic-language translation of the Teachings of Abraham, a body of material allegedly channeled through Esther Hicks (اِسْتِير هِيكْس, ʾIstīr Hīks), born in 1948 (MP3 audio file MP3 released under a Creative Commons license). ʾIstīr (اِسْتِير) is the Arabic version of the Hebrew, ʾẸsətēr (אֶסְתֵּר).

  5250. Ṭəʾārā-hā-Ləḇēnāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, טְאָרָה־הָלְבֵנָה הָמַלְאָךְ) or Tārā-ʾal-⫯Abyaḍ ʾal-Malāk (تَارَا ـ الأَبْيَض الْمَلَاك), star white (Sanskrit) the Angel, is White Tara the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My Hebrew vowel-points on “Ṭəʾārā” are only approximations. Ángelos Leukḗ Tára (Greek, Ἄγγελος Λευκή Τάρα) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. Howaito-Tāra·Tenshi (Japanese, ホワイトターラ・天使) is a Japanese rendering. Saphēda Tārā (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, सफेद तारा), in the original Sanskrit, is White Tara (White Star).
  5251.

My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. The etymology of Ta⫯aroa is undetermined.

  5254. ʾal-Taʿāṭuf (التَعَاطُف) is empathy. Taʿāṭafa (تَعَاطَفَ) is also to empathize (the verb). It is a quality which I, as an Autistic, developed through meditation. Empathy should not be confused with sympathy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mušārakaẗ ʾal-wiǧdāniyyaẗ) or compassion (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Išfāq). See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Kā⫯ināt maʿa ʾal-taʿāṭuf and ʾal-Ttawaḥḥud.
  5255. Ṯāʾạwāhʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, תָאַוָהאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Boundary of ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel (with my approximated vowel-points), is Thavael the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). Ṯāw or ṯāv (Hebrew, תָו) and tāw or tāv (Hebrew, תָּו), which corresponds to the Arabic tāˁ (تَاء), is thav (or tav), the final letter of the Hebrew alphabet. Therefore, hā-ṯāʾạwā (Hebrew, הָתָאַוָה) is the boundary. Ḥudūd ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (حُدُود الله الْمَلَاك), Boundary of God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Thavaḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Θαβαήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  5256. ʾal-Taʿawuniyyaẗ (التَعَاوُنِيَّة), with ʾal-taʿawuniyyāt (التَعَاوُنِيَّات) as the plural form, is the cooperative (or the co-operative).

By and large, the literature on codependency brings it closer, in my view, to social criticism than to social science. The genre can also be understood within the larger context of American individualism. Codependency has developed as a part of the twelve-step movement (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Maǧmūʿāt ʾal-ʾiṯnay ʿušraẗ ʾal-ẖutwaẗ). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥarakaẗ ʾal-ʾintiʿāš.

  5269. ʾal-Tābiṭaẗ ʾal-ṭawʿiyyaẗ (الرَابِطَة الطَوْعِيَّة), association (or society) voluntary, is the voluntary association. ʾal-Tābiṭāt al-ṭawʿiyyaẗ (الرَابِطَات الطَوْعِيَّة), associations (or societies) voluntary, is the plural form. See, for an example, the glossary entry, hā-Hăḏạsāh.
  5270. ʾal-Tablīġ (التبليغ) is propagation. The term is comparable to Christian evangelism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Daʿwaẗ ʾal-⫯inǧīliyyaẗ).
  5271. ʾal-Tabūru ʾal-Ḥurriyyaẗ ʾal-ʿĀlamiyyaẗ (التَابُورُ الحُرِّيَّة العَالَمِيَّة), the battles (from the Kurdish word, Tabûra) of freedom international, are the International Freedom Battalion in Syria. The original Kurdish and Turkish terms are, respectively, Tabûra Azadî ya Înternasyonal‎ and Enternasyonalist Özgürlük Taburu.

  5275. ʾal-Taḍāmun ʾal-mīkānīkiyyaẗ (التَضَامُن المِيكَانِيكِيَّة), solidarity mechical, is mechanical solidarity. Contrast with the glossary entry, ʾal-Taḍāmun ʾal-ʿuḍwiyyaẗ. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Taḍāmun.
  5276. ʾal-Taḍāmun ʾal-ʿuḍwiyyaẗ (التَضَامُن الْعُضْوِيَّة), solidarity organic, is organic solidarity. Contrast with the glossary entry, ʾal-Taḍāmun ʾal-mīkānīkiyyaẗ. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Taḍāmun.
  5277. ʾal-Tadarruǧ ʾal-maṯāliyyaẗ fī ʾal-wāqiʿiyyaẗ (التَدَرُّج المِثَالِيَّة فِي الْوَاقِعِيَّة), the scale of idealism through realism, is my Arabic-language translation of the idealism-realism scale.
    • Among other issues, this scale, as I have defined it, distinguishes classical critical theory from Roy Bhaskar’s critical realism and his philosophy of metaReality. For example, from a critical social theory perspective, rooted in neo-Kantianian or German idealism, the major obstacle to emancipation is ideology, not, as explained by Roy Bhaskar, demireality (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Šiqāq). On the other hand, both of these critical perspectives emphasize the inseparability of theory (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ) and practice or praxis (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mumārasa).
    • Peter Wolfendale has defined the territory quite well:
      “Classical Realism: Any position that takes there to be a real structure of the world that is ontologically independent (and thus distinct from) the structure of thought. This position is exemplified by thinkers such as Aristotle and [John] Locke.
      “Classical Idealism: Any position that takes there to be a real structure of the world that is in some sense identical to (and thus ontologically dependent upon) the structure of thought. This position is exemplified by thinkers such as [Bishop George] Berkeley and [Georg Wilhelm Friedrich] Hegel.”

Reflexology is also referred to as ʾal-ʿilāǧ ʾal-minṭaqaẗ (العِلَاج المِنْطَقَة), therapy of the zone, or, in the English language, zone therapy. The Chinese form is jiǎo dǐ àn mó (脚底按摩), literally, foot massage.
  5281. ʾal-Tadlīk w-ʾal-masāǧ (التَدْلِيك والمَسَاج) includes the original Arabic word for massage (alternatively, rubdown or bodywork) followed by the Indo-European loanword.
  5282. ʾal-Tadrīʿa (التدريع) is armoring (or shielding). It is sometimes referred to as ʾal-tadrīʿa ʾal-ʿaḍalāt (التدريع العَضَلات), armoring of the muscles (i.e., muscular armoring). ʾal-ʿAḍalaẗ (العَضَلة) is the muscle. The concept of armoring was important in the work of Wilhelm Reich. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-ʿIlāǧ ʾal-nafsiyy ʾal-ǧassama, ʾal-ʿIlāǧ ʾal-taṣāruʿ, ʾal-⫯Uwrīġūn, and ʾal-ʿIlmu ʾal-ṭāqaẗ.

Because of its association with the University of Chicago (الجَامِعَة الشِيكَاغُو, ʾal-Ǧamiʿah ʾal-Šīkāġū), the dominant approach to symbolic interactionism is also called ʾal-maḏhabu Šīkāġū ʾal-tafāʿuliyyaẗ ʾal-ramziyyaẗ (المَذْهَبُ شِيكَاغُو التَفَاعُلِيَّة الرَمْزِيَّة), the school Chicago of interaction (or interactivity) symbolic (the Chicago school of symbolic interactionism).
    • This neo-Kantian idealist system (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Miṯāliyyaẗ), inspired by both pragmatism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Brāġmātiyyaẗ) and process philosophy (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Falsafaẗ ʿaminiyaẗ), was influenced by numerous scholars, including George Herbert Mead (جُورْج هِرْبِرْت مِيد, Ǧūrǧ Hirbirt Mīd), 1863-1931.
    • Symbolic interactionism combined various perspectives, including the Thomas theorem (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ Tūmā), social behaviorism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Sulūkiyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ), and the theory of the looking-glass self (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ yabḥaṯu ʾal-zuǧǧāǧ ʾal-nafs). However, the individual who coined the term, “symbolic interactionism,” and revised the theory into its dominant form was one of Mead’s admirers, Herbert Blumer (هِرْبِرْت بْلُومِر, Hirbirt Blūmir), 1900-1987 A.D.
    • On the other other hand, Manford Kuhn (مَانْفُورْد كُون, Mānfūrd Kūn), 1911-1963 A.D., and other scholars associated with the University of Iowa (الجَامِعَة أَيُوَا, ʾal-Ǧamiʿaẗ ⫯Ayuwā) developed an alternative approach to symbolic interactionism. It is known, among sociologists, as ʾal-maḏhabu ⫯Ayuwā min ⫯aǧl ʾal-tafāʿuliyyaẗ ʾal-ramziyyaẗ (المَذْهَبُ أَيُوَا مِنْ أَجْل التَفَاعُلِيَّة الرَمْزِيَّة), the school Iowa of (or from) for interactivity symbolic (the Iowa school of symbolic interactionism).
  5292. ʾal-Ṭafḥuṇ w-ʾal-⫯anā w-ʾal-ḍammīr (الطَفْحٌ والأَنَا والضَّمِير), the id and the ego and the superego, are, in order, the id, the ego, and the superego or, in the original German, die Es, die Ich, und die Über-Ich. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-⫯Anā, ʿĪdū, Sīġmūnd Fruwīd, and ʾal-Taḥlīl ʾal-nafsiyy.
  5293. ʾal-Tafhīm (التفخيم) is instruction.
  5294. ʾal-Tafkīkiyyaẗ (التَفْكِيكِيَّة), with ʾal-tafkīkiyy (التَفْكِيكِيّ) as the possessive or an appurtenance (“deconstructionist”), is deconstructionism. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ mā baʿdi ʾal-binyawiyyaẗ.
  5295. ʾal-Tafkir (التَفْكِير) is meditation or thinking.
    • Although meditation is a cognitive or thinking process, meditation, as commonly used in the Bahá’í primary sources, cannot, in my opinion, be reduced to ordinary thinking. For instance, Shoghi Effendi, writing through his secretary, was presumably not telling Bahá’ís that they can be taught to think. When we meditate, dream, or look within, we discover the Angels, since They are within us and within this world (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin).
    • “Meditation is very important, and the Guardian sees no reason why the friends should not be taught to meditate, but they should guard against superstitious or foolish ideas creeping into it.” (From a letter, dated November 19, 1945, written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual Bahá’í, Lights of Guidance. Number 1484.)

  5298. ʾal-Tafsīriyyaẗ (التَفْسِيرِيَّة), explanatory or interpretive, is term for hermeneutics. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Tafsīr.
  5299. ʾal-Tafawwuq (التَفَوُّق) is triumphalism (or supremacy). ʾal-Tafawwuq ʾal-ddīniyy (التَفَوُّق الدِّينِيّ), triumphalism religious, is religious triumphalism. See also the glossary entry, ad-Dīn.

    • The English-language term, rarely a self-designation, is generally a pejorative.

It was the approach to psychotherapy developed by Wilhelm Stekel (فِيلْهِلْم شِْتكِيل, Fīlhilm Štikīl), 1868-1940. As a preteen, I was fascinated by Stekel’s book on dream interpretation (translated into the English language as The Interpretation of Dreams: New Developments and Technique).

    • Contact emancipation is the objective of angelophanies (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ẓuhūr). In my opinion, the beings directly engaging with humans during these dream-like experiences are Intermediate Angels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʾal-wasīṭaẗ), not extraterrestrials. Perhaps others, including extraterrestrials (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Kā⫯ināt ʾal-faḍā⫯iyyaẗ) and departed souls (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Amuwāt), may work with the Intermediate Angels or Archangels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ).
    • Several of my books on the Unities of All Things website focus on emancipation through the “angelophanies” of Intermediate Angels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʾal-wasīṭaẗ).

In my opinion, the Archangels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ) can appear however they wish to appear.
  5358. ʾal-Ṭā⫯ifaẗ (الطائفة or, with the diacritics, الطَائِفَة), with ʾal-ṭawā⫯if (الطَوَائِف) in the plural form, is the emirate. A ṭā⫯ifaẗ (طائفة) is also a party, group, company, professional group, community, or trade union. In current usage, a ṭā⫯ifaẗ is a religious group, a sect, a faction, or a party. Consequently, ʾal-ṭā⫯ifiyyaẗ (الطَائِفِيَّة) is sectarianism, factionalism, or partisanship. ʾal-Ṭā⫯ifiyy (الطَائِفِيّ), the possessive or an appurtenance, is sectarian, factional, or partisan.

This conservative social theory blames the poor for their poverty, rather than focusing the attention, correctly in my view, on capitalism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ra⫯asmāliyyaẗ) and the rapidly collapsing capitalist world system (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Nniẓām ʾal-ra⫯asmāliyy ʾal-ʿālamiyy).

In 1969, the English-language term, counterculture, was coined by Theodore Roszak (ثِيُودُور رُوشَاك, Ṯiyūdūr Rūšāk), 1933-2011, in his book, The Making of a Counter Culture (الصِّنَاعَة الثَقَافَة المُضَادَّة, ʾal-Ṣṣināʿaẗ ʾal-Ṯaqāfaẗ ʾal-Muḍādaẗ), the making (or manufacture) of a culture of contradiction (or culture of opposition).

The practice has been used, by some Muslims, under the threat of persecution. In a Bahá’í context, taqiyyaẗ (تَقِيَّة) has, to my understanding, been superseded by wisdom (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥikmaẗ). Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Taqwaỳ.

    • An intellectual tradition differs from a religion (see the glossary entry, ʾad-Dīn). As a Marxist sociologist (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿIlmu ʾal-⫯iǧtimāʿa ʾal-Māksiyy), I do not attempt to follow the ideas of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels (see the glossary entry, Kārl Mārks wa-Frīdriš ⫯Inġilz) faithfully. Instead, I begin with certain Marxian assumptions. The fact that people pick some assumptions, but not others, contributes to the diversity of an intellectual tradition.
    Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Maḏhabu.
  5464. ʾal-Taqlīdiyyaẗ lā ʾal-Yataǧaz⫯a (التَقْلِيدِيَّة لَا اليتجزأ), traditionalism undivided (literally, traditionalism not divisible), is Integral Traditionalism.

As I recall, the late Rūḥiyyaẗ Rabbāniyy (see the glossary entry, Rūḥiyaẗ) once said that she was not in the business of ranking Prophets. Similarly, perhaps, I am not in the business of ranking Archangels.

The two alternate Indonesian terms are Sufisme (presumably borrowed from the French spelling) and Tasawuf.
    • ʾal-Taṣawwuf includes numerous Islamicate (see glossary entry) mystical orders (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭarīqaẗ). The Ṣūfiyys, while originating in ʾal-⫯Islām (see glossary entry), matured, along with Hindus and Sikhs, through South Asian Bhakti practices, provided through the grace of His divine Presence Muḥammad.
    • “[The] Bhakti movement in Medieval India is responsible for the many rites and rituals associated with the worship of God by Hindus, Muslims and Sikhs of Indian subcontinent. For example, Kīrtanā [see glossary entry] at a Hindu [see glossary entry] Temple, Qawālī [see glossary entry] at a Dargāh [see glossary entry] (by Muslims), and singing of Gurbānī [see glossary entry] at a Gurdwārā [see glossary entry] are all derived from the Bhakti movement of medieval India (800-1700).” (The Bhakti Movement: 800 A.D-1700 A.D.)

The developers were anthropologists Marshall Sahlins (مارشال سالينز, Māršāl Sālīnz), born in 1930, and Elman Service (المان سرفيس, ʾIlmān Sirfīs), 1915-1996. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Biy⫯aẗ ʾal-ṯṯaqāfiyyaẗ, ʾal-Taṭawwur ʾal-ʿālamiyy, and ʾal-Taṭawwur ʾal-ṯaqāfiyy.

The term refers to critical consciousness or consciousness raising. Conscientization is based on the French word, «conscience», which can be alternately translated as consciousness and as conscience. Freire’s development of this concept clearly identifies critical pedagogy as a type of cultural Marxism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mārksiyyaẗu ʾal-ṯṯaqāfiyyaẗ). Concienciación (MP3 audio file MP3) is a Spanish-language spelling. Conscientisation (MP3 audio file MP3) is the French-language version.

    • Spiritually, this condition is frequently experienced as an absence of theory of mind or mentalizing. According to recent research, among the more common results of the empathy issues in ttawaḥḥud (تَّوَحُّد) are spiritual apathy and, in some cases, even antipathy. Apparently, Autists or Autistics have higher rates of atheism, agnosticism, and religious skepticism than the general population.
    • As an Autist or Autistic, I have addressed my own similar problem, a largely intellectual and superficial approach to spirituality, through Heartfulness Inquiry and a specifically targeted version of that meditation for Autists, The Echoing Practice (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mumārasaẗ ʾal-tardī ʾal-ṣadaỳ).

This term is problematic for at least three reasons. First, all Autists function well in some areas and not in others. Second, levels of functioning often change during an individual’s life course (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ ʾal-faʿla ʾal-tawāṣuliyy).

  5767. ʾal-ʿŪd (العُود), with ʾal-⫯aʿwād (الأَعْوَاد) as the plural form, is the lute (the musical instrument). Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṭunbūr.

Marx supported a living wage for workers. Allegations that he believed, “everyone should be paid the same,” come from anti-Marxists.
  5770. ʾal-⫯Uḥādiyyaẗ ʾal-ʿibādaẗ (الأُحَادِيَّة العِبَادَة ), singularity of worship (or devotion), is monolatry or monolatrism (a belief that only one Deity among deities is deserving of worship by anyone).

The beauty of the Bahá’í system is that no one can (or at least should) claim to be learned. Since, with the Bahá’í Learned, the focus is taken away from specific individuals and placed upon a divine institution, “the Learned” (except for the late Hands of the Cause of God), like the Rulers (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mulūk), can come and go. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-ʿĀlam, ʾal-⫯Ayādī ʾal-⫯Amr ʾAllꞌah, and ʾal-ʿUlamāˁ ʾal-ddīnu.

Ttamrīḍ ʾal-Malāk (تَّمْرِيض الْمَلَاك), Nursing the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Oúl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ούλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.

God bless his victims and give them comfort and peace in the next world.
  5794. ʾal-ʿUmlaẗ (العُمْلَة), with ʾal-ʿumlāt (العُمْلَات) as the plural form, is currency (money).
  5795. ʾal-ʿUmlaẗ ʾal-muwaḥḥadaẗ (العُمْلَة المُوَحَّدَة), the currency united, is the common currency. However, a common currency without common governance (the elimination of individual nation states) is one of the major problems afflicting Greece. More broadly, the capitalist world system needs to be abandoned. Otherwise, other “Greeces” will most likely result.
  5796. ʾal-ʿUluww ʿaẓẓama (العُلُوّ عَظَّمَ‎), loftiness (or elevation) to magnify (or to glorify), is endowed with constancy.
  5797. ʿŪmmāhʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, עֻמָּהאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ) is Umahel (or Ummahel) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). ʿŪmmāh (Hebrew, עֻמָּה) was an Ancient, Biblical city. The etymology is uncertain. ʿUmmāh ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (عُمَّاه الله الْمَلَاك), Ummah of God the Angel, is my Arabic-language rendering. Ángelos Oumaḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ουμαήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  5798. ʾal-⫯Ummaẗ (الأُمَّة‎) is community. The plural form, ʾal-ʾumūm (العُمُوم), is the universality, the generality, or the totality. The word, ⫯ummaẗ (أمّة‎), comes, with similar usages, from the Hebraized Aramaic term, hā-ʾūmmāh (הָאוּמָּה or הָאֻמָּה‎).
    • ʾal-⫯Ummaẗ is: community, people, tribe, nation, national unity, commonwealth or, as a possibility, intentional community. Given that the term, ⫯ummaẗ, is related to the designation ⫯umm (أمّ, mother), nurturing community, nurturance, sanctuary, shelter, asylum, refuge, or even home town may be appropriate. However, beloved community, from Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. (1929-1968), might be the most fitting translation.
    • To illustrate, His Peaceful Presence Muḥammad, as the Embodiment of God’s Will, was building ʾal-⫯Ummaẗ ʾal-⫯Islāmiyaẗ (الأمّة الإسْلامية‎), the beloved ⫰Islāmic Community, in Medina (اَلْمَدِينَة, ʾal-Madīnaẗ).

  5799. ʾal-⫯Umm ʾal-nafsāniyy (الأُمّ النَفْسَانِيّ‎) is spiritual mother, spiritual mom, or, more precisely, ensouled mother or mental mother. My spiritual mother (more precisely, my ensouled mother or my mental mother) is ⫯ummī ʾal-nafsāniyy (أُمِّي النَفْسَانِيّ). More formally, an Arabic term for mother is wālidaẗ (وَالِدَة). Mādar-i maʿnawī (مَادَرِ مَعنَوِی), mother of spiritual, is Persian for “spiritual mother.” Rūḥānī māṉa (ʾUrdū, رُوحَانِی مَاںَ) is spiritual mother in ʾUrdū.
  5800. ʾal-ʿUmr (العُمْر), with ʾal-⫯aʿmār (الأَعْمَار) as the plural form, is life, lifetime, or age.
  5801. ʾal-ʿUmrān (العُمْرَان‎) is prosperity or construction.

The Hebrew-language version, including the vowel-points, is my own. Unkurunkuru (Japanese, ウンクルンクル) is given as a Japanese spelling. Unkulunkulu was the supernatural Teacher of the Zulu people from Southern Africa. Today, His name is commonly used to refer to God.
  5803. Ūnitās in Dīversitāte, Latin for Unity in Diversity, is the motto of The MarkFoster.NETwork. “Its [the world-wide Law of Bahá’u’lláh’s] watchword is unity in diversity ....” (Shoghi Effendi, The World Order of Bahá’u’lláh. Page 42.) See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Waḥidaẗ fī ʾal-tanawwuʿ.

Racism is a product of a white-male-dominated capitalist society. Until the capitalist system comes down, racism will, sadly, continue. In the modern-day U.S. the bases of the Republican Party and the Democratic Party are, respectively, white and Black. Therefore, American racial politics are literally being played out in the two-party system.
  5805. ʾal-ʿUnṣuriyyaẗ ʾal-mu⫯assasiyyaẗ (العُنْصُرِيَّة المُؤَسَّسِيَّة), racism institutional, is institutional racism.

See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Niswiyyaẗ, ʾal-Niswiyyaẗ ʾal-ʾištirākiyyaẗ, ʾal-Niswiyyaẗ ʾal-lībirāliyyaẗ, ʾal-Niswiyyaẗ ʾal-rādīkāliyyaẗ, and ʾal-Niswiyyaẗ ʾal-Mārksiyyaẗu.
  5808. ʾal-⫯Unṭūlūǧiyā ʾal-wāqiʿiyyaẗ ʾal-niswiyyaẗ (الأُنْطُولُوجِيَا الوَاقِعِيَّة النِسْوِيَّة), the ontology realist (or realism) feminist (or feminism), is my Arabic-language translation of feminist-realist ontology. It is a critical realist approach to feminism which was developed by Lena Gunnarsson (لِينَا غُونَّارْسُّون, Līnā Ġūnnārssūn).

My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. The Arabic-language spelling is my own.
  5810. ʾal-ʿUqūbaẗ ʾal-⫯iʿdām (العُقُوبَة الإِعْدَام), the punishment of execution, is capital punishment (or the death penalty). In my view, at this point in time, “capital” punishment should be primarily reserved for “capitalists” and others in positions of domination (politicians, law-enforcement officers, etc.).
  5811. ʾŪrānūs hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אוּרָנוּס הָמַלְאָךְ), ⫯Uwrānūs ʾal-Malāk (أُوْرَانُوس الْمَلَاك), ʾUwrānūs Farištah (Persian, اُوْرَانُوس فَرِشْتَه), Yūraynus Farištah (ʾUrdū, یُورَینُس فَرِشْتَہ), Tenōsei-Tenshi (Japanese, 天王星天使), and Ángelos Ouranós (Ancient Greek, Ἄγγελος Οὐρανός), Heaven (Ancient Greek) the Angel, are Uranus (or Ouranos) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām).

  5812. ʾUrdū (ʾUrdū, اُردُو), or, in Arabic, ʾal-⫯Urdiyyaẗ (الأُرْدِيَّة), ʾal-⫯Uwrdiyyaẗ (الأُوْرْدِيَّة), or ʾal-⫯Urduwiyyaẗ (الأُرْدُوِيَّة), is one of the two major forms of Hindustānī (Hiṃdī-ʾUrdū) employed in South Asia. The diacritics (vowel-points) in the original spelling clarify the pronunciation of the initial letter, ⫯alif (ا), as u and the final letter, wa (و), as ū (not as v). Generally, ʾUrdū uses a Persianized script (see the glossary entry, Fārsī), while Hiṃdī (see glossary entry) utilizes the Dēvanāgarī (see glossary entry) script. However, the ʾUrdū dialect of Hindustānī is also sometimes written in Dēvanāgarī, especially in India. In this glossary, I have followed my own variation of the Arabic ISO system of Romanization for ʾUrdū. See also the glossary entry, Hindustānī.
  5813. ʾŪrəʾāniyạh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אוּרְאָנִיַה הָמַלְאָךְ), ⫯Uwrāniyā ʾal-Malāk (أُوْرَانِيَا الْمَلَاك), ʾUwrāniyā Farištah (Persian, اُوْرَانِیَا فَرِشْتَه), and Ángelos Ouranía (Ancient Greek, Ἄγγελος Οὐρανία), Heavenly (Ancient Greek) the Angel, refer to Urania (an Ancient Greek muse) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations. Compare with the glossary entry, ʾŪrānūs hā-Mạləʾāḵə.
  5814. ʾŪrəḇəʾāšiyy hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אוּרְבְאָשִׁיּ הָמַלְאָךְ), ⫯Uwrfāšiyy ʾal-Malāk (أُوْرْفَاشِيّ الْمَلَاك), ʾUrvāšī Farištah (Persian, اُرْوَاشِی فَرِشْتَه), ʾUrvašī Farištah (ʾUrdū, اُرْوَشِی فَرِشْتَہ), ʾUravašī Farišatah (Šāh Mukhī Punǧ°ābī script, اُرَوَشِی فَرِشَتَہ), Urvaśī Fariśtā (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, उर्वशी फ़रिश्ता), Ūrvaśi Dēvadūta (Telugu, ఊర్వశి దేవదూత), Ūrvaci Tēvatai (Tamiḻ, ஊர்வசி தேவதை), Urvaśī Dūtē (Gujarātī, ઉર્વશી દૂતે), or Uravaśī Fariśatā (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਉਰਵਸ਼ੀ ਫ਼ਰਿਸ਼ਤਾ), Widely Extending (Sanskrit) the Angel, is Urvashi (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, उर्वशी, Urvaśī) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām).

Also known as El Auria (Hebrew, אֵל־אוֹרִיָה, ʾĒl-ʾŌriyāh, ʾĔlōhiym the Light of Yāhəwẹh), He is the Angel (or perhaps one of the Angels) of the Divine Presence (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Malāk min ʾal-Wuǧūd ʾal-⫯Ilhiyy and hā-Mạləʾāḵə šẹl hā-Nōkəḥūṯ hā-ʾĔlōhiyaṯ). ⫯Uwrī⫯īl ʾal-Malāk (أُوْرِيئِيل الْمَلَاك) is my Arabization. Ángelos Ouriḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ουριήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. Compare with the glossary entry, Pūriyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə.
  5820. ʾŪriym hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, אוּרִים הָמַלְאָךְ) or, the Arabization, ⫯Urīm ʾal-Malāk (أُورِيم الْمَلَاك) is Urim the Angel. He might be a Resident of the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin) and its Archangels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ). Ángelos Ourím (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ουρίμ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. hā-ʾŪriym (Hebrew, הָאוּרִים) is the light, the region of light, or the illumination.
  5821. ʾal-ʿUrs (العُرْس) or (less frequently) ʾal-ʿiras (العِرَس), with ʾal-⫯aʿrās (الأَعْرَاس) as the plural form, is, literally, the wedding, marriage ceremony, or nuptials. However, in South Asia, ʿurs (ʾUrdūized and Šāh Mukhized Arabic, عرس or عرساں, ʿursāṉ, the plural form), ursa (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, उर्स), urasa (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਉਰਸ), or ʿurs-i šarīf (ʾUrdūized Arabic, عرسِ صريف, nobile nuptials) is employed, metaphorically, for an annual wedding-like pageant, observance, or memorial honoring the passing of a Ṣūfiyy saint (see the glossary entries, Saint, ʾal-Ṣūfiyy, and ʾal-Waliyy ʾAllꞌah). These commemorations are frequently, but not always, held at the saint’s mausoleum (see the glossary entry, Dargāh). This specialized usage may be clarified by juxtaposing two definitions of the English-language wedding, a festive (conjugal) celebration and any act of joining or union. These three examples are close to my heart:
    • ʿUrs-i Ḥaḍrat Saẖī Sulṭān Bāhū (ʾUrdūized and Persianized Arabic, عُرسِ حَضرَت سَخی سُلطَان بَاهُو) is held, in honor of Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū (see glossary entry), at Mawḍiʿ-i Sulṭān Ḥaqq Bāhū (see glossary entry). Saẖī (ʾUrdū and Persian, سَخِی) is munificent, bountiful, or generous.
    • ʿUrs-i Bāhū (ʾUrdūized and Persianized Arabic, عُرسِ بَاهُو) is observed in Tongaat, South Africa, in honor of Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bāhū.

Forms of the originally Persian word are also found in other languages. For example, the Arabized spelling, which varies slightly from the Persian, is ʾustāḏ (استاذ). In Persian, ʾustād is frequently juxtaposed with šāgird (see glossary entry). See also the glossary entry, ʾUstād ʾIlahī.
  5830. ʾUstād ʾIlahī or Ostad Elahi (Persianized Arabic, اُستَاد اِلَهِی), “master divine,” lived 1895-1974.

However, mythology can also be referred to by the Indo-European loanword, ʾal-mīṯūlūǧiyā (المِيثُولُوجيَا). ʾal-⫯Usṭūriyy (الأُسْطُورِيّ) is mythological. ʾal-ʿĀlimuṇ bi-ʾal-⫯asāṭīr (العالِمٌ بالأَسَاطِير), the (scientific) knower with (or through) myths, is the mythologist. In my view, many mythologies are, like dreams, recollections of Archangels. See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Mansūbuṇ ⫯ilaỳ ʾal-⫯usṭūraẗ
  5835. ʾal-⫯Uṣūliyyaẗ (الأُصُولِيّة), with ʾal-⫯uṣūliyy (الأُصُولِيّ) as the possessive or an appurtenance (“fundamentalist”), is fundamentalism. Contrast with the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿAlmanah.

These transmissions are believed to be revealed, commonly, through inspired dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Manām) and visions (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ruʾyā).
    • The words ʿUways (عُوَيْس), “little wolf” or “wolf cub,” and ⫯Uwaysiyy (أُوَيْسِيّ), “belonging to the little wolf or wolf cub,” were adopted from the reported case of His blessed Presence Muḥammad’s contemporary, ⫯Uways bin ʾAnīs ʾal-Qarniyy (أُوَيْس بِن انِيس القَرْنِيّ). According to various traditional accounts, he swore or, literally, “sold” (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Bayʿaẗ) his spiritual allegiance to the Prophet of ⫰Islām while he was having a dream. The two men never met physically.
    • To my understanding, in this Promised Day of all the Prophets and Messengers of the Earth, anyone can, God willing, receive something like ⫯Uwaysiyy transmissions or blessings from the souls in the Supreme Concourse (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mal⫯a ʾal-⫯Aʿlaỳ). “The transgressions committed by such as have turned away from Thee [God] and have borne themselves haughtily towards Thee have not availed to hinder them from loving Thee, and from setting their faces towards Thee, and from turning in the direction of Thy mercy. These are they who are blessed by the Concourse on high ....” (Bahá’u’lláh, Prayers and Meditations by Bahá’u’lláh. Page 83.) However, authority is based upon the Covenant.

  5859. Vajrayāna (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, वज्रयान), Sanskrit for thunderbolt, is the “tantric” diamond vehicle of Buddhism. Vajrayāna focuses, in part, on the development of the gtum mo or tummo (Tibetan, གཏུམ་མོ་). This term is Tibetan for “fierce or fiery femininity.” It is a translation, into Tibetan, of the Sanskrit word, “caṇḍālī” (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, चण्डाली), which, linguistically, is related to the Sanskrit, “kuṇḍalinī” (see glossary entry). In Vajrayāna Buddhism, gtum mo is the result of raising the kuṇḍalinī.
  5860. Varaqiyy-i ʿUlyā (وَرَقِیِّ عُلْیَا) is Persianized Arabic for the Greatest Holy Leaf (literally, Most Exalted or Highest Leaf). The Arabic version is ʾal-Waraqiyy ʾal-ʿUlyā (الوَرَقِيّ العُلْيَا).

A plural form of the word is varṇāḥ (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, वर्णाः). The Bhakti-Ṣūfiyy movement (see glossary entry) was, in part, a popular rebellion against India’s rigid social stratification system.

Vedānta (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, वेदान्त), the end or culmination of knowledge, refers to Vedic philosophy. The word “Veda” is (only etymologically) “wit’s end.” Vedā- (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, वेद) is from the same Indo-European root as “wit,” and -ānta (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, अन्त) is from the same Indo-European root as “end.” Vedānta is also called Uttarā Mīmāṃsā (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, उत्तरा मीमांसा), higher inquiry or higher investigation.
  5864. Verstehen, the German verb “to understand” (also used to refer to “understanding”), is a methodology developed by various German scholars, especially sociologist and economist Max Weber.
    • The objective of Verstehen is for the researcher to enter into the lifeworlds of the people being studied while intersubjectively interpreting a social phenomenon through their own eyes. University of Michigan sociologist Charles Horton Cooley (1864-1929) utilized a similar concept, “sympathetic introspection” (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Tta⫯ammul ʾal-mutaʿāṭif).
    • This glossary is an exercise in Verstehen and in the somewhat comparable activities of shifting the center (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Taġyīr ʾal-markaz) and developing relevant standpoint epistemologies (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ ʾal-wuǧhaẗ ʾal-nuẓira).
    For a common Arabic-language translation of Verstehen, see the glossary entry, ʾal-Fahm. See also the glossary entries, Bi-ʾal-taqāṭuʿ, Idealtypus, Lebenswelt, ʾal-Manbit min ʾal-sayṭaraẗ, Māks Faybir, and ʾal-Naẓariyyaẗ yabḥaṯu ʾal-zuǧǧāǧ ʾal-nafs.

This Angelic name may be derived from the Yiddish expression, ʾoy vvẹyy or oy vey (Yiddish, אױ װײ), which literally translates as “oh woe.” Wayl ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk وَيْل الله الْمَلَاك), Woe of God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation.
  5866. Vidyā (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, विद्या, Malayaḷaṃ, വിദ്യാ, or Tamiḻ, வித்யா), vidya (Telugu, విద్య), vidiyā (ʾUrdū, ودیا), or vidvatā (Gujarātī, વિદ્વતા) is knowledge, education, or learning.

Wōṭəʾạnnāh hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, ווֹטְאַנָּה הָמַלְאָךְ) or Wūtānnā ʾal-Malāk (وُوتَانَّا الْمَلَاك) is Wotanna the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). My added Hebrew vowel-points are only approximations.
  6084. ʾal-Wuḍūˁ (الوُضُوء‎) are ablutions. Wuḍū (ʿUrdū, وُضُو) is the ʿUrdū version. The water used for ablutions is called ʾal-waḍūˁ (الوَضُوء). These ritual cleansings are performed before reciting one’s Obligatory Prayers (see the glossary entries, Namāz and ʾal-Ṣalāt) and before reciting one’s Obligatory Remembrance of the Greatest Name. For the corresponding Persian term, see the glossary entry, ʾÂbdast. See also the glossary entries, ʾAllꞌahu ⫯Abhā, ʾal-ʾIsm ʾal-⫯Aʿẓam, and ʾal-Ḏikr.
  6085. ʾal-Wuḍūḥ ʾal-mutabādal (الوُضُوح المُتَبَادَل), clarity mutual, is mutual intelligibility. In the following quotation, Rūmī, as an ʾIyrānian, appears to address the practicality of mutual intelligibility in a Persian-speaking context, not to express a preference for one language over the other:
    • “Speak in the Persian tongue, though the Arab please thee more;
      “A lover hath many a tongue at his command.”
      (From Mawlānā Jalāl ʾad-Dīn Muḥammad Rūmī’s Maṯnawī, quoted by Bahá’u’lláh, “The Seven Valleys.” The Seven Valleys and the Four Valleys. Page 58.)
    • “... the greater the mutual intelligibility between two languages the less likelihood of learning difficulty and interference problems.” (Hugo Baetens Beardsmore, Bilingualism: Basic Principles. Second edition. Clevedon, Avon, England, UK: Multilingual Matters Ltd. 1986. Page 97.)
    See also the glossary entry, Glōssolalía.
  6086. ʾal-Wuǧūdiyyaẗ (الوُجُودِيّة), with ʾal-wuǧūdiyy (الوُجُودِيّ) as the possessive or an appurtenance, is existentialism (French, existentialisme) or “beingness.”
    • Philosophically and theoretically, existentialism belongs to the social idealist paradigm (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Miṯāliyyaẗ and ʾal-Miṯāliyyaẗ ʾal-ʾiǧtimāʿiyyaẗ).
    • One of the major figures in this movement was Jean-Paul Sartre (جَان ـ بَوْل سَارْتْرِ, Ǧān-Bawl Sārtri), 1905-1980 A.D. Late in his intellectual career, he combined existentialism with Marxism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Mārksiyyaẗu). However, the morally gray project of Sartre failed because it lacked an ontology.
    • “In so far as Existentialism is a philosophical doctrine, it remains an idealistic doctrine: it hypostatizes specific historical conditions of human existence into ontological and metaphysical characteristics. Existentialism thus becomes part of the very ideology which it attacks, and its radicalism is illusory.” (Herbert Marcuse, “Sartre’s Existentialism.” Studies in Critical Philosophy. Joris de Bres, translator. Boston: Beacon Press. 1973. Page 161.)
    See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Mārksiyyaẗu ʾal-Wuǧūdiyaẗ, ʾal-Qaliq, and ʾal-Wuǧūd yasbaq ʾal-ǧawhar.
  6087. ʾal-Wuǧūd yasbaq ʾal-ǧawhar (“الوُجُود يَسْبَق الجَوْهَر”) is “existence precedes essence” (French, «l’existence précède l’essence») or, in other words, “ʾal-wuǧūd sābiquṇ ʿaliỳ ʾal-māhiyyaẗ” (”الْوُجُودَ سَابِقٌ إِلَى الْمَاهِيَّةِ“), “existence prior to essence.” Therefore, in Jean-Paul Sartre’s idealism, the existence of each human being is wrapped up in her or his own personal awareness or self-definition. That consciousness of existence preexists (is prior to) the individual’s essence. This axiom is a central tenet of Sartre’s philosophy of existentialism (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wuǧūdiyyaẗ).

  6089. Xenophilia is a portmanteau, or combined term, of the Ancient Greek xénos (ξένος), foreign or strange, and the Ancient Greek, philía (φιλία), brotherly love. The term refers to a love of foreign or unknown beings and things. Anthropologists, in particular, are commonly xenophiles. An Arabic form is ʾal-maḥabbah ʾal-⫯aǧānibu (الْمَحَبَّة الأَجَانِب), love of foreigners. Contrast with the glossary entry, Xenophobia. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-ʿIlmu ʾal-⫯insānu and ʾal-Muʿādāẗ ʾal-⫯Aǧānib.
  6090. Xenophobia is a portmanteau, or combined term, of the Ancient Greek xénos (ξένος), foreign or strange, and the Ancient Greek, phóbos (φόβος), fear. Two Arabic translations are ʾal-rahāb ʾal-⫯aǧānibu (الرَهَاب الأَجَانِب), phobia (or fear) of foreigners, and ʾal-ẖawwafa min ʾal-ġurabāˁ (الخَوَّفَ مِنْ الغُرَبَاء), worry or caution over (for) outsiders.
    • The term xenophobia, refers, literally, to a fear of the foreign or strange. However, I disagree, as a sociologist, with psychologically reductionist approaches to social problems. From my own perspective as a critical realist (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wāqiʿiyyaẗ ʾal-naqdiyyaẗ), the demireality, or disunity, of prejudicial discrimination against members of oppressed or disadvantaged societies and religions, which is all too common among many reactionaries who cling to dangerous philosophies of religious conservatism, is opposed by the cosmic envelope of unity.
    • “CONSIDER how at the time of the appearance of every Revelation, those who open their hearts to the Author of that Revelation recognize the Truth, while the hearts of those who fail to apprehend the Truth are straitened by reason of their shutting themselves out from Him. However, openness of heart is bestowed by God upon both parties alike. God desireth not to straiten the heart of anyone, be it even an ant, how much less the heart of a superior creature, except when he suffereth himself to be wrapt in veils, for God is the Creator of all things.” (the Báb, Selections from the Writings of the Báb. Page 133.)
    Contrast with the glossary entry, Xenophilia. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Dayāliktīk, ʾal-Ġilāf ʾal-dunyawiyy, Kyrarchy, ʾal-Šiqāq, and ʾal-Waḥidaẗ ʾal-wuǧūd.
  6091. Xôkikiya and śikīẏa (Assamese, শইকীয়া) are my own alternate Romanizations of the Assamese word for the hundred ones. Śa⫯ikīẏā is another Romanization. I am providing this definition as an illustration of the Assamese letter শ (alternately Romanized, xô, ś, or śa). Xô (with a sound symbolized as either χ or x̣) is pronounced using the breath, not the vocal cords. This voiceless uvular fricative (MP3 audio file MP3), a consonant, is a near homophone (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Lafẓaẗ ʾal-mutaǧānisaẗ) with common pronunciations of the Arabic ẖ (خ) and the Hebrew ḥ (ח), as in ʾal-ẖuḍūʿ (الخُضُوع), lowliness (alternatively, submission or obedience), and Ḥănūkkāh (Hebrew, חֲנֻכָּה), “the festival of dedication or rededication.” See also the glossary entry, Asamẏa.

According to at least one extra-Biblical account, He worked with Abraham (see the glossary entry, ʾẠḇərāhām).
    • The Hebrew Yəhōʾēl (יְהוֹאֵל) is a variant of Yōʾēl or Joel (Hebrew, יוֹאֵל). A possible translation of the names, Yōʾēl and Yəhōʾēl, is YHWH (see glossary entry) is ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry).
    • “Stand up, [Abraham,] Friend of God who loveth thee; let not the trembling of man seize thee! For, lo! I have been sent to thee to strengthen thee and bless thee in the name of God—who loveth thee—the Creator of the celestial and terrestial. Be fearless and hasten to Him. I am called Jaoel [Yəhōʾēl] by Him who moveth that which existeth with me on the seventh expanse upon the firmament, a power in virtue of the ineffable Name that is dwelling in me.” (The Apocalypse of Abraham. Translated from the Slavonic text by G. H. Box, M.A. Page 46.)

He might be a Resident of the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin) and its Archangels (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Malā⫯ikaẗ ʿAllaỳ). Yiraḥim⫯īl ʾal-Malāk (يِرَحِمئِيل الْمَلَاك) is an Arabized form of the Angel’s name. Ángelos Iramēl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ιραμεηλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.

  6179. Yərūšālạyim (Hebrew, יְרוּשָׁלַיִם) is Jerusalem, a holy city to Jews, Christians, and Muslims. The Arabic spelling is ⫯Uwršalīm (أُوْرْشَلِيم). See also the glossary entry, ʾal-Qudus.

The Hiṃdī convention is Yaśāyāha (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, यशायाह). The Guramukhī Punjabi rendering is Yasāyāha (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਯਸਾਯਾਹ). The Bengali style is Yiśā⫯iẏa (যিশাইয়).
  6181. hā-Yəšiyḇāh (Hebrew, הָיְשִׁיבָה), with hā-yəšiyḇōṯ (Hebrew, הָיְשִׁיבוֹת) in the plural form, is the yeshiva (literally, “sitting”). ʾal-Yišīfā (اليِشِيفَا), with ʾal-yišīfāt (اليِشِيفَات) as the plural form, are Arabized spellings.

  6183. Yēšūʿạ (יֵשׁוּעַ) is Hebrew for Jesus. Two Arabized Hebrew spellings are Yasūʿa (يَسُوعَ) and Yišūʿa (يِشُوعَ). See also the glossary entry, ʿĪsaỳ.
  6184. YHWH (Hebrew, יהוה‎, or Arabic, يْهْوْهْ), possibly Yāhəwẹh (Hebrew, יָהְוֶה), is Hebrew for “He is Becoming.” In some Biblical translations, this word, referred to as the Tetragrámmaton (Greek, Τετραγράμματον, literally, four letters), is either translated as LORD or rendered as Jehovah (Hebrew, יְהֹוָה, Yəhōwāh). That spelling apparently originated when the vowel-points from ʾĂdōnāy (see glossary entry) were transposed upon the letters for YHWH. Since vowel-points are not included in the oldest Biblical manuscripts, the original pronunciation of the word, YHWH, is uncertain. Yāhwih (يَاهْوِه) and Yahwih (يَهْوِه) are two Arabizations. See also the glossary entry, Kamā Yāhwih ʾal-nnafs. See also the glossary entry, Ṭẹṭərəʾāgərəʾạmməʾāṭōn hā-Mạləʾāḵə.

  6186. hā-Yiḥūḏ or hā-Yichuḏ (Hebrew, הָיִחוּד), with hā-yiḥūḏiym (Hebrew, הָיִחוּדִים) in the plural form, is unification. It is the precise Hebrew cognate for ʾal-Tawḥīd (see glossary entry).
    • hā-Yiḥūḏ is also sometimes used similarly to ʾal-Tawḥīd, i.e., for monotheism. In these cases, the term is frequently clarified as hā-Yiḥūḏ hā-Ššēm (Hebrew, הָיִחוּד הָשֵּׁם), the Unification of the Name (see the glossary entry, hā-Ššēm).
    • In Orthodox Judaism, hā-Yiḥūḏ refers, in another context, to the prohibition against the “seclusion” of unmarried women and men, i.e., forbidding the “unification” of unmarried women and men.
    • Furthermore, as found within certain Kabbalistic literature (see the glossary entry, hā-Qạbbālāh), the word hā-yiḥūḏiym points to the unification of the male and female aspects of hā-Səp̄īrōṯ (see glossary entry).

Tawḥīd ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (تَوْحِيد الله الْمَلَاك‎), Unification of God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. For explanations, see the glossary entries, ʾal-Tawḥīd and hā-Yiḥūḏ.

This heavenly being was blessed with the divine Name of a Sanctified Prophet. ⫯Isḥāq ʾal-Malāk (إِسْحَاق الْمَلَاك) is an Arabic form. ʾIsḥāq Farištah (Persian, اِسحَاق فَرِشْتَه, or ʾUrdū, اسحاق فَرِشْتَہ) is the Persian and ʾUrdū form. Ángelos Isaák (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, Ἄγγελος Ἰσαάκ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.

Ángelos Israḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ισραήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. On the morning of November 17ᵗʰ, 2016, I had a dream in which I found an apparent acorn. I showed the acorn to Angel Israel, but He said that it looked like a stone. I pointed out the opening in the side—which indicated it was an acorn. I then opened up the acorn, and a disproportionately sized hard–boiled egg came out. My interpretation: The birthpangs of the world are about to intensify. In the process of creating the egg—the embryo of the world commonwealth—a tremendous boiling, or burning fire, will be required. Many will suffer. A great many more will die. Few, if anyone, will survive from the United States. See also the glossary entry, Yiśərāʾēl.
  6193. Yiśərāʾēliy (יִשְׂרָאֵלִי), with Yiśərāʾēliym (יִשְׂרָאֵלִים) as the plural form, is Israeli. See also the glossary entry, Yiśərāʾēl.
  6194. ʾal-Yitiyy (اليِتِيّ) is an Arabized spelling of Yeti. It is an alternate term for Bigfoot (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Qadama ʾal-Kabīraẗ), Sasquatch (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Sāskwātš), and the Abominable Snowman (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ṯalǧ ʾal-Baǧīḍaẗ).
  6195. Yiyḏiyš, Yidish, or, commonly, Yiddish (Yiddish, יִידִישׁ), literally “Jewish,” refers to the traditional language (a Germanic language written in Hebrew script) and culture of ʾẠšəkənạzziy Jews (see the glossary entry, hā-ʾẠšəkənạzziym). Yiyḏiyšəqạyyəṭ, Yidishkeyt, or, commonly, Yiddishkeit (Yiddish, יִידִישְׁקַיְּט) is Jewishness. Yəhūḏiyūṭ (Hebrew, יְהוּדִיּוּת) is Jewishness in Hebrew. Yiyḏ or Yid (Yiddish, יִיד) is (male) Jew. With the selection of Hebrew as the national language of Israel, the use of the Yiddish language has significantly declined. Nevertheless, “ʾal-Yidīšiyyaẗ” (الاليِدِيشِيَّة) remains a living language. In this glossary, Yiddish is generally Romanized using the Hebrew ISO (International Organization for Standardization) system. See also the glossary entries, hā-ʿIbəriyṯ and Yiśərāʾēl.
  6196. Yizərəʿẹʾl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, יִזְרְעֶאל הָמַלְאָךְ), ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) Sows the Angel, is Jezreel (alternatively, Ezrael or Ezriel) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām).

  6198. Yōga (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, योग) is Sanskrit for union or yoking (from the same Indo-European root as yoke).
    • In this glossary, I have decided to translate yōga as “union.”
    • A Sanskrit plural form is yōgā (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, योगा), the practice of union or “unionism.” Also derived from the same Indo-European root is the word yuga (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, युग), which has the implication of a “union,” “unity,” or “unit” of time, an age, or an era. Traditionally, the current yuga is the kaliyuga (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, कलियुग), the yuga of kali (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, कलि), disunity. The Arabic form of yōga is ʾal-yūġā (اليُوغَا) or, for yōga as “sportsmanship” or recreation, ʾal-yūǧā (اليُوجا). The ʾUrdū spelling is yūgā (یوگا). The Persian convention is ġūk (غُوک).
    Compare with the glossary entry, ʾal-Wāḥid. See also the glossary entries, Ġūk Bʾâsišt, Yōgī, and Yōginī.
  6199. Yōgī (Dēvanāgarī Sanskrit script, योगी) is either a male or a female practitioner of yōga (see the glossary entry). See also the glossary entry, Yōginī.

His Arabic Name is Yaḥyaỳ ʾIbn Zakariyyā (يَحْيَى اِبْن زَكَرِيَّا), John, Son of Zechariah. The Hebrew form of Zechariah is Zəkạrəyāh (זְכַרְיָה). In my opinion, John the Baptist, much like the Saint Paul (see glossary entry) and Saint John of the Apocalypse (see glossary entry), was a Lesser Prophet of Christ and His Dispensation.
  6202.

Yūlāyū⫯īl ʾal-Malāk (يُولَايُوئِيل الْمَلَاك) is my Arabization. Ángelos Ieliḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ιελιήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  6206. Yōmiyʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə (Hebrew, יוֹמִיאֵל הָמַלְאָךְ), Day of ʾĔlōhiym (see glossary entry) the Angel, is Yomiel (or Yomael) the Angel, possibly among the Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) residing in the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-⫯Ahlām). hā-Yōm (Hebrew, הָיוֹמ) is the day. Yawm ʾAllꞌah ʾal-Malāk (يَوْم الله الْمَلَاك), Day of God the Angel, is my Arabic-language translation. Ángelos Iomaḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ιομαήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling.
  6207. Yōnāh or Jonah (Hebrew, יוֹנָה), the personal name, translates as “dove.” Two alternate Arabic spellings are Yūnus (يُونُس) and Yūnān (يُونَان). Yūnus (یُونُس), which varies slightly from the Arabic in the original, is the ʾUrdū and Persian form. The Greek rendering is Iṓnas (Ιώνας). Yūnusa (Dēvanāgarī Hiṃdī/Sanskrit script, यूनुस) is the Hiṃdī spelling. Yūnisa (Guramukhī Pajābī script, ਯੂਨਿਸ) is the Guramukhī Punjabi convention. See also the glossary entries, ʾal-Warqāˁ and Yōnāhʾēl hā-Mạləʾāḵə.

Ángelos Ionaḗl (Greek, Ἄγγελος Ιοναήλ) is a Greek (or Hellenized) spelling. Jonael refers here to the wondrous Angelic “Dove” which was associated with Jesus Christ. He is, I feel, the central (and preceptor) Archangel of the Christian Dispensation.
    • A carrier pigeon (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Ḥamām ʾal-zzāǧil) is a messenger in the sky or, perhaps by analogy, a heavenly angel. In other words, the Dove (or Pigeon), which descended upon Jesus during His baptism, might refer to a Resident of the World of Dreams (see the glossary entry, ʾal-ʿĀlam ʾal-Bāṭin) and its Guardian Angels (see the glossary entries, ʾal-Ḥafaẓaẗ and ʾal-Malāk ʾal-Ḥāris) . Through the Dove, also called the Holy Spirit (Koinḗ, or Common, Greek, άγιο πνεύμα, hágio pneúma), Jesus may have entered into a relationship with that World of Dreams.
    • “... the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily form, as a dove, upon him [Jesus], and a voice came out of heaven, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.” (Luke 3:22. American Standard Version. 1901.)

The identically sounding eutopia (Greek, ευτοπία, eutopía), in the English language, is a good (Greek, ευ, eu) place.

Although there are many differing statements as to these points, to recount them in detail would result in weariness.” (Bahá’u’lláh, “The Seven Valleys.” The Seven Valleys and the Four Valleys.

Endnotes

Unless otherwise stated, all English translations are from the Arabic (ʾal-ʿArabiyyaẗ) language. There are differences, which will be evident, between the system of Romanization (or rough transliteration) of Arabic and Persian (Fārsī) words contained in official Bahá’í texts and my reformed and highly nuanced version of the ISO (International Organization for Standardization) system adopted in other parts of this work. Persian, ʾUrdū, Šāh Mukhī Punjabi (Punǧ°ābī) script, Pashto (Paṣ̌tū), Kashmiri (Kaśura), Kurdish (Kūrdī), and Ottoman Turkish (Lisān-i ʿUṯmānī) are Romanized using further modifications to the Arabic ISO system. (See this page on Arabic verb conjugation.) Diacritics (the signs used in Romanization) for Arabic and other languages have sometimes been modified in quotations. Please note that there is no capitalization in Arabic, Hebrew (hā-ʿIbəriyṯ), Persian, ʾUrdū, and many of the other languages included in the glossary.
In my revision of the ISO system for Arabic (along with related scripts), I have adopted the right half–ring diacritic, &703; (ʿ) to indicate that a noninitial ⫯alif has been diacritically (or dialectically) altered from the usual “ā.” Furthermore, I have represented the dagger ⫯alif (see the glossary entry, ʾal-⫯Alif ʾal-ẖanǧariyyaẗ) by either the lower-case Mexican Indigenous (Spanish, Indígenas) saltillo Spanish for a little leap or a little hop) character (ꞌ as ꞌ) or the straight–line apostrophe, ' (') before the vowel. When following this convention, “a” becomes “ꞌa.” For instance, with ʾal-ḥamdʾullꞌah (الحَمْدُالله), the ⫯alif (ʾu) is modified into a “u” sound. In the same word’s non–initial ⫯alif altered in spelling (i.e., a into u), the Unicode for the right–half–ring glyph (&702;) immediately precedes Roman letter, i.e., ʾi or ʾu. You can, if you wish, add the ° (°) symbol in place of the Arabic مْد (used to indicate two side–by–side consonants without a vowel). So, the Arabic السَرْوَرِيَّة becomes ʾal–Sar°wariyyaẗ. However, if no vowel is included in the Latinized spelling, the ° would simply be presumed. Therefore, its use is optional.
For some languages (unrelated to Arabic, Persian, ʾUrdū, such as Guramukhī Punjabi and Ōṛi⫯ā), the straight typewriter apostrophe (') can also be indicated by the previously mentioned saltillo character. The word, saltillo, is Spanish for a little leap or a little hop. I have represented an hamzaẗ which is not attached to a letter (ء) with the International Phonetic Alphabet’s “modifier letter reversed glottal stop” symbol. It is written here in its superscripted form (ˁ). The lower hamzaẗ is represented by ⫰ (⫰). (As an aside, the upper hamzaẗ is represented by ⫯.) As to the silent alif (اْ), such as at the end of ʾâmanūˀ (آمَنُواْ, “they believe”), I use the International Phonetic Alphabet’s superscripted “modifier letter glottal stop” symbol ˀ (ˀ). See the glossary entry, ʾal-Tanwīn, for my Romanized conventions with nūnation.
Hebrew and Yiddish are both Romanized, in the glossary, using my own (modest) variant of the Hebrew-language ISO system. For the Hebrew gērəšạyim (Hebrew, גֵּרְשַׁיִם) diacritic (״), placed before the final letter of Hebrew acronyms, I have adopted the similarly shaped double-prime (″) Unicode glyph. Likewise, the Hebrew gērẹš (Hebrew, גֵּרֶשׁ) diacritic (׳), an accent character, is indicated here by the prime (′) Unicode glyph. Furthermore, in order to prevent the Hebrew or Yiddish question mark (?) from automatically reversing into the Perso-Arabic format (؟), I have utilized either the Unicode glyph for the ordinary question mark (?), the Unicode glyph for the small question mark (﹖), or the Unicode for the presentation question mark (︖). Finally, for purposes of alphabetization, the schwa (Ә or ə), found in Hebrew and in some Géʿzé (alternatively, either Gəʿəz or Gəʾəzə) Romanizations, is treated like the letter “e.”
Optionally, in order to distinguish Persian from Arabic, the Persian و (و) is indicated by a v or V. The Persian پ (پ) is a p or P. The Persian چ with č (&269;) or Č (&268;). The ژ (ژ) is indicated by the ž (&382;) or Ž (&381;). The Persian (and ʾUrdū) ی (ی) is Romanized as y or Y with an acute accent, i.e., ý (ý) or Ý (Ý). A long yā (i.e., iy) is represented, also with an acute accent, as í (í) or Í (Í). Likewise, the Persian ک is Romanized as k or K with an acute accent, i.e., (ک) would be ḱ (ḱ) or Ḱ (Ḱ). Thus, کَرَاچِی, the city of Karachi, would be spelled, Ḱarācí.

In my opinion, spiritual glōssolalía is the language of the heart. Scat glōssolalía, improvisionational glōssolalía, or automatic glōssolalía (my terms), on the other hand, refers to extemporaneous, spontaneous, and frequently ecstatic utterances or, in other words, ad-libbing on the fly with impromptu sounds. The practice may be comparable to sāṃdhyabhāṣā (see glossary entry). Historically, scat glōssolalía has been practiced, up until the present time, within a diverse spectrum of religious and spiritual movements:
scat (skæt)
— n
1. a type of jazz singing characterized by improvised vocal sounds instead of words
— vb, scats, scatting or scatted
2. (intr) to sing jazz in this way [... perhaps imitative]
Collins English Dictionary: Complete & Unabridged 10th Edition. New York: HarperCollins Publishers. 2009.
scat singing
noun  Jazz.
singing in which the singer substitutes improvised nonsense syllables for the words of a song, and tries to sound and phrase like a musical instrument.
Origin:
1925–30

Perhaps the most important New Testamental references to speaking in tongues (glōssolalía) are recorded in the Book of Acts (Acts of the Apostles) and in the Pauline Epistle of I Corinthians:
  1. “Tongues,” is, I believe, used in the Book of Acts to describe spiritual glōssolalía, not scat glōssolalía. “And they [the apostles of Jesus Christ] were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.” (Acts 2:4, American Standard Version. 1901.) Similarly, “And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.” (Acts 19:6, American Standard Version. 1901.) Like the early followers of Christ, each of us can pray to develop the heavenly language of love and servitude which transcends human differences.
  2. Spiritual glōssolalía, not scat glōssolalía, was, I suspect, taught by the Apostle St. Paul, God bless His exalted Soul, to a spiritually immature Church in Corinth. He made reference to glōssolalía in I Corinthians 12-14, such as, “If any man speaketh in a tongue [scat glōssolalía?], let it be by two, or at the most three, and that in turn; and let one interpret: but if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God [spiritual glōssolalía?].” (I Corinthians 14:27-28, American Standard Version. 1901.) Paul, while discouraging scat glōssolalía, was, I think, exercising wisdom. Bluntly, if anyone wants to engage in the practice, first find an interpreter. Bahá’u’lláh, quoting Rūmī, may have made a similar point regarding mutual intelligibility (see the glossary entry, ʾal-Wuḍūḥ ʾal-mutabādal). The Corinthians, as a “demireal” (disunified and disorderly) congregation, confused the language of the spirit, as taught by Christ and Paul, with contemporary mystical populism (scat glōssolalía).
According to the Apostle (Messenger) of God St. Paul and the Center of the Covenant ʽAbdu’l-Bahá:
... to another [person is given] divers kinds of tongues [spiritual glōssolalía?]; and to another the interpretation of tongues [the interpretation of scat glōssolalía?] ....
The Apostle St. Paul, I Corinthians 12:10. American Standard Version. 1901.
If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels [i.e., any form of speech?], but have not love, I am become sounding brass, or a clanging cymbal.
The Apostle St. Paul, I Corinthians 13:1. American Standard Version. 1901.
I thank God, I speak with tongues [spiritual glōssolalía?] more than you all [scat glōssolalía?]: howbeit in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding [spiritual glōssolalía?], that I might instruct others also, than ten thousand words in a tongue [scat glōssolalía?].
The Apostle St. Paul, I Corinthians 14:18. American Standard Version. 1901.
O phoenix of that immortal flame kindled in the sacred Tree! Bahá’u’lláh—may my life, my soul, my spirit be offered up as a sacrifice unto His lowly servants—hath, during His last days on earth, given the most emphatic promise that, through the outpourings of the grace of God and the aid and assistance vouchsafed from His Kingdom on high, souls will arise and holy beings appear who, as stars, would adorn the firmament of divine guidance; illumine the dayspring of loving-kindness and bounty; manifest the signs of the unity of God; shine with the light of sanctity and purity; receive their full measure of divine inspiration; raise high the sacred torch of faith; stand firm as the rock and immoveable as the mountain; and grow to become luminaries in the heavens of His Revelation, mighty channels of His grace, means for the bestowal of God’s bountiful care, heralds calling forth the name of the One true God, and establishers of the world’s supreme foundation.
These shall labour ceaselessly, by day and by night, shall heed neither trials nor woe, shall suffer no respite in their efforts, shall seek no repose, shall disregard all ease and comfort, and, detached and unsullied, shall consecrate every fleeting moment of their lives to the diffusion of the divine fragrance and the exaltation of God’s holy Word. Their faces will radiate heavenly gladness, and their hearts be filled with joy. Their souls will be inspired, and their foundation stand secure. They shall scatter in the world, and travel throughout all regions. They shall raise their voices in every assembly, and adorn and revive every gathering. They shall speak in every tongue, and interpret every hidden meaning. They shall reveal the mysteries of the Kingdom, and manifest unto everyone the signs of God. They shall burn brightly even as a candle in the heart of every assembly, and beam forth as a star upon every horizon. The gentle breezes wafted from the garden of their hearts shall perfume and revive the souls of men, and the revelations of their minds, even as showers, will reinvigorate the peoples and nations of the world.
I am waiting, eagerly waiting for these holy ones to appear; and yet, how long will they delay their coming? My prayer and ardent supplication, at eventide and at dawn, is that these shining stars may soon shed their radiance upon the world, that their sacred countenances may be unveiled to mortal eyes, that the hosts of divine assistance may achieve their victory, and the billows of grace, rising from His oceans above, may flow upon all mankind. Pray ye also and supplicate unto Him that through the bountiful aid of the Ancient Beauty these souls may be unveiled to the eyes of the world.
The glory of God rest upon thee, and upon him whose face is illumined with that everlasting light that shineth from His Kingdom of Glory.

In response to your letter of 26 February 1984, we are asked by the Universal House of Justice to share with you the attached extract from a previously untranslated Tablet revealed by ʽAbdu’l-Bahá on the subject of “speaking in tongues.” We are also to refer you to Chapter XVII of “Some Answered Questions” which may help to answer questions about the Holy Spirit....
“The disciples of Christ taught His Faith with the language of the Kingdom [spiritual glōssolalía?]. That language conformeth to all languages, for it consisteth of celestial meanings and divine mysteries. For the one who becometh conversant with that language the realities and secrets of creation shall stand unveiled before him. Divine truths are common to all languages. The Holy Spirit, therefore, taught the disciples the language of the Kingdom, and they were thus able to converse with the people of all nations. Whenever they spoke to those of other nations of the world, it was as if they conversed in their tongues. The well-known and outstanding languages of the world number about a thousand. It was necessary for the disciples to have written the Gospels in at least one of the languages of other nations. Thus, as it is known, the Gospels were written only in Hebrew, and not even the language of the Romans, although it was at that time the official language. As the disciples were not well-versed in it, the Gospels were not written in that language.”
