The Fifth Flash
A treatise was to be written that would explain in fifteen degrees a highly significant meaning of the verse, “For us God suffices, and He is the Best Disposer of Affairs,”(3:173) but it has been postponed for now since it would have been concerned more with reflective thought and the recollection of God than with reality and intellectual knowledge. In fact, the important treatise called The Stairway of the Practices of the Prophet and Antidote for the Sickness of Innovation was originally known as the Fifth Flash, but since it comprised eleven points, it was designated the Eleventh Flash, and the Fifth Flash’s place remained unoccupied.
