Abstract :

The requirement to reach the end of the unity of the essence of truth is to pass the difficult path of poverty and destruction. Human nature is constantly looking for a way to reach the eternal existence of God, because the turbulent sea of human existence can only be reached in this way. The mystics consider annihilation and nothingness as the way to reach God-consciousness and believe that when the dust of existence is removed from the mortal existence of a person, the truth will emerge as it is. Undoubtedly, the beginning of this difficult path is not possible without knowledge and love. "Mohammed bin Jafar Makki Hosseini", a mystic who owns the style of Chishtiyyah style, is also one of those who adhere to this concept, and in addition, he believes that a person cannot see the light of god existence until he passes through himself. annihilation in  God and the survival of God is the way to Connect to Noor Al-Noor. In his opinion, reaching the right is different from what people of Zahir and Sharia think. He does not know nearness not only arrive to Paradise, but also in seeing the god, and he believes that these are nothing but a veil on the path of the seeker. He classified the true closeness in three stages: closeness to the essence, pleasures, and the self, and he is of the opinion that only the divine whole can go through these levels and see the truth as it is . In the present research, the author has analyzed Makki's writings with a descriptive-analytical method and analyzed the mentioned concepts in his schools.
