The Stars and that spiritual reality - the destination of the doors of Quran

[Link]

Salam

Some doors open upon other doors in the Quran. Which open other doors.

Without making a post length, if 33:6, 33:33, 4:54-59, 5:55, 42:23 + 25:57 and many other verses, are accepted for what they truly mean and in their proper place, aside from the dimension of social and political aspects of leadership of Ahlulbayt (a), there is a special spiritual mystic reality talked about in Quran.


The connection:


وَإِنْ كَانَ كَبُرَ عَلَيْكَ إِعْرَاضُهُمْ فَإِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ أَنْ تَبْتَغِيَ نَفَقًا فِي الْأَرْضِ أَوْ سُلَّمًا فِي السَّمَاءِ فَتَأْتِيَهُمْ بِآيَةٍ ۚ وَلَوْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَجَمَعَهُمْ عَلَى الْهُدَىٰ ۚ فَلَا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْجَاهِلِينَ | And should their aversion be hard on you, find, if you can, seek a tunnel into the ground, or a ladder into sky, that you may bring them a sign. Had Allah wished, He would have brought them together on guidance. So do not be one of the ignorant. | Al-An'aam : 35


What is the sign and why can't Mohammad (s) bring it to disbelievers, Surah Hijr expands:

وَلَوْ فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ بَابًا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ فَظَلُّوا فِيهِ يَعْرُجُونَ | Were We to open for them a gate of the sky, so that they could go on ascending through it, | Al-Hijr : 14

لَقَالُوا إِنَّمَا سُكِّرَتْ أَبْصَارُنَا بَلْ نَحْنُ قَوْمٌ مَسْحُورُونَ | they would surely say, ‘Indeed our vision is intoxicated; indeed, we are a bewitched lot.’ | Al-Hijr : 15

While they would react to it, Quran then says:

وَلَقَدْ جَعَلْنَا فِي السَّمَاءِ بُرُوجًا وَزَيَّنَّاهَا لِلنَّاظِرِينَ | Certainly We have made strongholds in the sky and adorned them for the onlookers, | Al-Hijr : 16

وَحَفِظْنَاهَا مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْطَانٍ رَجِيمٍ | and We have guarded it from every outcast Satan, | Al-Hijr : 17

إِلَّا مَنِ اسْتَرَقَ السَّمْعَ فَأَتْبَعَهُ شِهَابٌ مُبِينٌ | except someone who may eavesdrop, whereat there pursues him a manifest flame. | Al-Hijr : 18

This means, spiritually seeing these stars is encouraged by the Quran.

وَلَقَدْ زَيَّنَّا السَّمَاءَ الدُّنْيَا بِمَصَابِيحَ وَجَعَلْنَاهَا رُجُومًا لِلشَّيَاطِينِ ۖ وَأَعْتَدْنَا لَهُمْ عَذَابَ السَّعِيرِ | We have certainly adorned the world’s heaven with lamps, and made them [the means of pelting] missiles against the devils, and We have prepared for them a punishment of the Blaze. | Al-Mulk : 5
أَفَسِحْرٌ هَٰذَا أَمْ أَنْتُمْ لَا تُبْصِرُونَ | Is this, then, [also] magic, or is it you who do not perceive? | At-Tur : 15
فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِمَوَاقِعِ النُّجُومِ | Nay I swear by the positions of the stars | Al-Waaqia : 75
وَإِنَّهُ لَقَسَمٌ لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عَظِيمٌ | And indeed it is should you know an oath that is great Al-Waaqia : 76
وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الْبُرُوجِ |And by the heaven with its structures/houses/mansions| Al-Burooj : 1
وَأَنَّا لَمَسْنَا السَّمَاءَ فَوَجَدْنَاهَا مُلِئَتْ حَرَسًا شَدِيدًا وَشُهُبًا | Indeed we made for the heaven and found it full of mighty sentries and flames. | Al-Jinn : 8
وَأَنَّا كُنَّا نَقْعُدُ مِنْهَا مَقَاعِدَ لِلسَّمْعِ ۖ فَمَنْ يَسْتَمِعِ الْآنَ يَجِدْ لَهُ شِهَابًا رَصَدًا | We used to sit in its positions to eavesdrop, but anyone listening now finds a flame waiting for him. | Al-Jinn : 9

This shows heaven/sky was augmented with the coming of Mohammad (s).  Although, there is always a family guiding and being such weapons against dark magic, the humble enough Jinn realized it’s never been this strong, and this is an overwhelming power, that if all Jinn united, they cannot defeat. At least this was realized by a great amount of them at that time although is true of all times, it became more obvious now.

The heavenly augmentation of this house and family, caused a portion of the Jinn to submit.

The heavenly family and household are surely to be used by believers to annul the dark magic from both Jinn and humans.

وَالْبَيْتِ الْمَعْمُورِ | and (by) the House/Family greatly frequented; | At-Tur : 4
وَالسَّقْفِ الْمَرْفُوعِ | and (by) the vault raised high, | At-Tur : 5
وَالْبَحْرِ الْمَسْجُورِ | and (by) the surging sea: | At-Tur : 6

It’s this house and family that ultimately prove better then anything else that there is no escape from God and the punishment of God is surely coming to the rebels to God and oppressors.

All Satanic forces can unite but:
إِنَّ عَذَابَ رَبِّكَ لَوَاقِعٌ | indeed your Lord’s punishment will surely befall. | At-Tur : 7
مَا لَهُ مِنْ دَافِعٍ | There is none who can avert it. | At-Tur : 8

As for the verse in Surah Al-Mulk, the word is plural form of the lamp found in the niche in singular form in the following verse:

اللَّهُ نُورُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ ۚ مَثَلُ نُورِهِ كَمِشْكَاةٍ فِيهَا مِصْبَاحٌ ۖ الْمِصْبَاحُ فِي زُجَاجَةٍ ۖ الزُّجَاجَةُ كَأَنَّهَا كَوْكَبٌ دُرِّيٌّ يُوقَدُ مِنْ شَجَرَةٍ مُبَارَكَةٍ زَيْتُونَةٍ لَا شَرْقِيَّةٍ وَلَا غَرْبِيَّةٍ يَكَادُ زَيْتُهَا يُضِيءُ وَلَوْ لَمْ تَمْسَسْهُ نَارٌ ۚ نُورٌ عَلَىٰ نُورٍ ۗ يَهْدِي اللَّهُ لِنُورِهِ مَنْ يَشَاءُ ۚ وَيَضْرِبُ اللَّهُ الْأَمْثَالَ لِلنَّاسِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ | Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The parable of His Light is a niche wherein is a lamp—the lamp is in a glass, the glass as it were a glittering star—lit from a blessed olive tree, neither eastern nor western, whose oil almost lights up, though fire should not touch it. Light upon light. Allah guides to His Light whomever He wishes. Allah draws parables for mankind, and Allah has knowledge of all things. | An-Noor : 35
