Abstract
The most important part of Ayn al- Quāt’s intellectual system is based on Muhammad (pbuh) and his presence gives sense to almost all the terms and concepts in Ayn al-Quāt’s works. To achieve knowledge and perceive manifestation of God’s beauty, a seeker has to come to an understanding of Muhammad’s position and behold meanings in the mirror of his existence. This article attempts to depict an overall picture of Muhammad’s demonstration in Ayn al-Quāt’s writings by focusing on two important and detailed works of his: Tamhīdāt and Nāmehā. It concludes that while bestowing perfection and embellishment to all aspects of Ayn al-Quāt’s ideology, Muhammad is regarded as a veil that must be left in order for the Beloved to be observed directly and the lover to be annihilated into His existence.
