There’s an ancient occult book called “The Shams al-Ma’arif,” also known as “The Son of Knowledge.” It’s notorious for being one of the most dangerous books in existence. The book primarily delves into the science of letters, a belief that the letters of the Arabic alphabet hold magical, occult powers.
According to the book, these practices involve intricate details about letters and their connections, including the Mansions of the Moon, planetary spheres, and the names of God. The emphasis is not on invoking the powers of jinn or demons, but rather, harnessing the powers of God. This includes the use of Quranic verses and divine names.
A large part of “The Shams al-Ma’arif” is dedicated to explaining how to create talismans. These talismans are meant to protect the user from real danger and malevolent entities, utilizing the sacred letters and verses. The book’s infamous reputation stems from its detailed guide on employing these divine powers for protection and other purposes.
