Abstract:
In Islamic mysticism as well as in mystical literature, the concept of "safe position" is sometimes spoken of. This study seeks to investigate what a "safe position" is in mystical texts. In the path of the emergence of creation, everything that has been created has a secure position, which is what has been established for it at the same time as its constant and secret value. In the process of ascent, it is a position that if the seeker reaches, he is no longer afraid of losing his spirits and being thrown out of the path of conduct and behavior. In this position, the seeker of God is safe on the shore and will be one of the light-bearers who is not afraid of his spirit being seized, let alone of worldly fear and sorrow. In religious texts, the term "safe place" and also the title "Mahmoud place" refer to the "safe place" of Islamic mysticism. His "safe conduct" is in two parts. Each of the garlic houses has an expected level for each seeker who, when he reaches that level, reaches the safe position of that house and can enter the next house of Sirusluk. Sometimes mystics speak of a position within other houses and authorities, which they refer to as a "safe position". Reaching the level of "certainty" leads to reaching this safe position. A position that the seeker will never be disturbed by and will not have the fear and sorrow of leaving God.
