Satan in Ain-al Quzat Hamedaniʹs Mystic Thought

According to Quranic teachings, Satan (Iblis) fell from divine grace by his act of disobedience in refusing to honor Adam when he was ordered to do so. Ain-al Quzat Hamedani (1098-1131), Persian mystic, presents a different interpretation of this event. He believes that the Devilʹs act of disobedience is the result of his true love for God and the Divine determination. According to Ain-al Quzat, there are two lights: the black light of the Devil and the light of Muhammad. These lights, created by God, both are necessary for the world of existence.
