The 7 Heavens Are Not What You Think
Description
On this episode of The Hall of Mysteries, we continue our journey with the Mahdi, Aba Al-Sadiq, exploring a hidden cosmology that speaks of a reality behind revelation and a source beyond the written scripture. The discussion turns toward the concept of Umm al-Kitab — the “Mother of the Book” — and the idea that sacred texts, the heavens, and creation itself originate from a higher, unseen order. As the episode unfolds, themes of light, descent, rebellion, and return are examined through the lens of ancient esoteric teachings. Viewers are invited to reconsider familiar notions of the Qur’an, the seven heavens, and the material world, and to reflect on why certain knowledge was guarded, transmitted quietly, and understood only by those prepared to seek beneath the surface.
