In other words, these pluralities are made of a dream or a shadow and just like an image inside a mirror. Existence is the God’s book and the creatures are God’s names and divine words. This paper explores first hand sourcesthrough historical or documentary methods, in which the aspects of innovation is Jami's theory of pantheism that brings about a new aspect of investigation with its ownspecial categorization and puts forward an innovation in explaining allegories in the context and a verbal format.
