Page 1 Praise be to God, the Possessor of sublime praises and all-powerful glory... Abu Yusuf said... Al-Qurashi found in what was expressed by the ancients and in what was deposited in her books of her hidden secret that the levels of knowledge are three, etc. - page 522 Likewise, if the moon looks at the Lord of his house, then it indicates the speed of his being and the speed of the beginning. If the Lord of his house looks at it from a square, then it is from his day, and as for the triple, it is slower, God Almighty willing, and the book has been completed with the perfection of what we intended. To him, praise be to God... and may God bless him, etc
