The Grand Triangle: Al-Būnī's Secret and the Sibtī Path to Celestial Manifestation Beyond the 3 \times 3 Saturn Square
Esteemed brothers and sisters of this blessed assembly,The duty of the serious Seeker has always been to exercise secrecy and caution concerning the deeper insights one carries. Yet, as time flows, the wisdom remains that opening the door to every worthy initiate (Labīb) is an obligation upon us, fulfilling the maxim: "The Zakat (purification) of knowledge is its teaching."Today, I share some keys to this science—not to prove knowledge, but as an invitation for contemplation into the greatest fundamental of the science of Al-Awfāq (Talismans/Sigils): The $3 \times 3$ Magic Square, widely attributed to Saturn.This figure, which some perceive as merely a simple numerical arrangement, is in reality a Profound Secret and a key to 288 distinct methods of charging (Ta'mīr). This knowledge was revealed to me through the grace of the Almighty, passed down by esteemed Shuyūkh (Masters), may God have mercy upon them, confirming what was taken orally (Mushāfaha), providing a dimension entirely distinct from the circulating written texts.
It is essential to understand that the absolute numerical principles (The Numerical Principle) revealed here are rooted in the original Arabic science and its Abjad Gematria. While other traditions (e.g., Qabalah, English Occult Gematria) possess their own worthy systems, the Eastern Awfāq tradition provides a singularly comprehensive framework for this specific 3 \times 3 structure, focusing on Cosmic Function over linguistic application.
The true workers in this science have realized that activating this Wifq (or any other) transcends mere surface methods. The known paths used by practitioners can be summarized as follows:I. The Known and Limited Paths:These techniques are the foundation found in many texts, but their efficacy is restricted unless integrated with the Grand Secret:The Properties of the Letters (The Ghazzālī Method): Utilizing the single and double letter assignments within the Wifq, as described in the famous Qasīdah of Imām Al-Ghazzālī. These are noble workings, yet they are strictly property-based (Khuwāss) and limited.Inclusion of Verses and Divine Names (The Four Natures): This involves calculating verses or Divine Names to fill the Wifq and seeking the "Six Known Issues" (talismans goals). The entry points are dictated by the Four Natures (Fire from the top, Earth from the bottom, Air kills, Water North—a distinct Eastern methodology). This method, despite its structural accuracy, often fails because success depends on the Seeker's Himmah (Spiritual Zeal) and adherence to principles.The Barhatīyah or Kaf Hā Yā ʿAyn Sāds Methods: Relying on powerful external conjurations (Azā'im) like the Barhatīyah Oath, or specific Qur'anic verses, to command the extracted elemental Spirits. Here, the power lies in the Conjuration's force, not the intrinsic power of the $3 \times 3$ geometry itself.The Nine-Day Letter Discipline: This involves writing each of the nine primary letters into its house in the Wifq over nine days, at the appropriate planetary hour (Sunday/Sun for Alif with 111 repetitions, etc.), often using the Barhatīyah for the final compelling. This method is common but is considered limited, as it demands rigorous isolation and often lacks a deep connection to the Sciences of Letters and Natures.The Personally Activated Method: Used by individuals whose prayers or verses have been made effective (Musakhkhar) for them. Success here is contingent upon the individual’s continuous Piety (Taqwā) and purity—making it a matter of personal grace, not a replicable scientific rule.II. The Deepest Path: The Select Few (The Core Activation)This is where the focus of the "special select" masters lies. They are the closest to the true Secret:Adding the "Spirit of the Moving Souls" (Rūḥ al-Arwāḥ al-Muḥarrikah): They construct the Wifq as usual, but add a specific, calculated number, called the Spirit of the Souls, to the overall numerical sum. The result is achieved simply by repeatedly reciting this injected number (Al-ʿAdad al-Madkhūl Bih). This makes the Wifq self-activating and is the closest approximation to the overall secret of Al-Awfāq.Conclusion: The Sealed SecretAnd now... I will briefly open a window onto a concealed method (referred to only by symbols here), which I received from my Shaykh via a direct, uninterrupted chain of transmission (Sanad Muttaṣil) back to Abul ʿAbbās as-Sibtī. I must apologize for not being able to detail these benefits broadly, as time is limited, and the full practice requires foundational principles that are beyond the scope of a general forum post.This is the very method upon which Al-Būnī based his great work on the Divine Names, where he asserted that those names act as the Greatest Name of God (Ism al-Aʿẓam). The secret is that each hour of the day possesses specific Divine Names, and praying with them is equivalent to invoking the Ism al-Aʿẓam.The ultimate truth is this: This $3 \times 3$ Triangle holds 288 methods of charging. This is what the Masters meant by "The Descent of the Celestial Sphere to the Earth" (Inzāl al-Falak min as-Samāʾ ilā al-Arḍ). This superior method requires no astronomical observation (Raṣd) or external commanding, as the power is intrinsic. Any complex rituals you read were simply symbols used to divert the profane from this Core Secret.I hope this opening has illuminated some forgotten corners of this Noble Science for you.
I hope every member writes a reply so that I can continue the educational journey. No one is replying to the topic in the forum regarding the science of letters (Ilm al-Huruf). How can I encourage them to reply so I can continue the lessons؟
