Yaqeen
Yaqeen () is generally translated as "certainty", and is considered the summit of the many
stations by which the path of ''
walaya'' (sometimes translated as Sainthood) is fully completed. This is the repository of liberating experience in
Islam. In relation to the
exoteric religious life, certainty is the sister of religious life in its perfection (''
ehsân''), that is, to say the
adoration of
Allah according to the visionary way; through this channel it is the pillar of Islam in the accomplishment of its external practices, as it is the foundation of faith (''
iman'') in its internal dogma. It is, in fact, ''
ihsân'' which gives the external religion its true meaning and the domain of faith its real values. It occurs in the
Quran about certainty, "And worship your Lord until there comes to you the certainty". Certainty (''yaqeen'') comprises three degrees.
