Abstract

In Holy Quran (68: 42) one of the characteristics of THE DAY OF JUDGMENT has been described as “the day when the leg shall be bared” which is a metaphor for removing the veil of Glory, and subsequently the humiliation of creatures are shown by general command for PROSTRATION. In this research, by taking advantage of mystical principles and traditional commentaries, four propounded questions about these verses (68: 42-43) are responded: the generality of this command, benefit and sagacity of PROSTRATION, polytheists' disability, and whose presence to prostrate. By referring to the HADITH TAHAWWOL (a tradition about God's self-transmutation at the Resurrection) -upon which Ibn al-Arabi's theory of Ilah ul-Motaghid were developed- and the other traditions mentioned under these verses by other commentators, author comes to the conclusion that the interpretation of “the leg shall be bared” is associated with divine theophany in the form of PERFECT MAN. According to HADITH TAHAWWOL, God reveals Himself to each group of people, but they keep on denying Him until He transmutes Himself into a form that has the mark which they recognize. However, THE DAY OF JUDGMENT is the field where monotheists are detached from others. Hence, a particular theophany is needed by which monotheists start prostrating and others fail to do so. Concerning the fact that in Shiite tradition the phrase “saq al-arsh” has been interpreted as the meeting place of the light of oneness (Tawhid) and the Mohammadian light, and “Kashf SAQ” has been interpreted as the authority and GUARDIANSHIP of Shiite Imams, and with regard to what is narrated in Bukhari's Sahih one can interprete the verse as the epiphany of universal GUARDIANSHIP. Therefore, PROSTRATION in THE DAY OF JUDGMENT before this Truth is like angles’ bowing down to man.
