Ana'l - Haqq
"In that glory is no 'I' or 'We' or 'Thou.'
'I,' 'We,' 'Thou,' and 'He' are all one thing."
It was not Hallaj who cried "Ana ’l-Haqq," but God Himself, speaking, as it were, by the mouth of the selfless Hallaj, just as He spoke to Moses through the medium of the burning bush (Kor. 20.8-14).
The last explanation, which converts Ana ’l-Haqq into an impersonal monistic axiom, is accepted by most Sufis as representing the true Hallajian teaching.
In a magnificent ode Jalaluddin Rumi describes how the One Light shines in myriad forms through the whole universe, and how the One Essence, remaining ever the same, clothes itself from age to age in the prophets and saints who are its witnesses to mankind.
"Every moment the robber Beauty rises in a different shape, ravishes the soul, and disappears.
Every instant that Loved One assumes a new garment, now of old, now of youth.
Now He plunged into the heart of the substance of the potter's clay--the Spirit plunged, like a diver.
Anon He rose from the depths of mud that is moulded and baked, then He appeared in the world.
He became Noah, and at His prayer the world was flooded while He went into the Ark.
He became Abraham and appeared in the midst of the fire, which turned to roses for His sake.
For a while He was roaming on the earth to pleasure Himself, Then He became Jesus and ascended to the dome of Heaven and began to glorify God.
In brief, it was He that was coming and going in every generation thou hast seen,
Until at last He appeared in the form of an Arab and gained the empire of the world.
What is it that is transferred? What is transmigration in reality? The lovely winner of hearts.
Became a sword and appeared in the hand of ‘Ali and became the Slayer of the time.
No! no! for 'twas even He that was crying in human shape, 'Ana ’l-Haqq.' That one who mounted the scaffold was not Mansur {Hallaj is often called Mansur, which is properly the name of his father.}, though the foolish imagined it.
Rumi hath not spoken and will not speak words of infidelity: do not disbelieve him! Whosoever shows disbelief is an infidel and one of those who have been doomed to Hell."
