The reality of the invocation is when the Invoked takes possession of the heart, and He is One. Separation and multiplicity exist before that for as long as the invoker is in the station of invoking with the tongue or with the heart.
Ibn Ata AllahWhen the invocation descends into the heart, if there is darkness within, it illuminates it; and if there is already light, the invocation increases the light and intensifies it.
Ibn Ata AllahIf you do not think well of Him because His qualities are beautiful then think well of Him because of the way He treats you.
