Stars and Souls

Question: What’s the reality of the six pointed stars?

Shaykh AI:

B’ism Allah… Alhamdulillah, from the teachings of Mawlana Shaykh Nurjan Mirahmadi (QS), the six-pointed star holds spiritual significance in Sufi teachings. The star represents the perfection of the soul and the physicality. It is made up of two triangles, one pointing upwards representing faith and the heavenly kingdom, and the other pointing downwards representing the physicality and worldly matters.

The upper triangle reflects religion, faith, and moral excellence, while the lower triangle represents the material world and the dangers of ignorance and lower desires. The star serves as a symbol of guidance, and when the soul and physicality are in harmony, it leads to enlightenment and perfection.

The star’s reality is connected to unlocking the power of heavenly kingdoms and reaching the station of self-realization. It symbolizes the journey towards becoming a radiant star that guides others both in this world and the hereafter. May you seek the love of the Prophet ﷺ and perfect your character to become a guiding star for others.
