Appendix:<br />

Two Table Matrixes – first table based on Al-Hakim Al-Tirmidhi <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> second Table Matrix is<br />

based on Shaykh 'Abd Al-Qadir Jilani about <strong>the</strong> full 7 levels <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Heart <strong>and</strong> soul.<br />

Table Matrix - The Four Spiritual Hearts-'A <strong>Sufi</strong> Work on <strong>the</strong> Stations <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Heart'<br />

Based on Al-Hakim Al-Tirmidhi<br />

adopted by Hakim Tirmidhi, with those given by Shaykh 'Abd Al-Qadir Jilani, <strong>the</strong>y are not<br />

The commentaries which <strong>the</strong>y have added witness <strong>to</strong> this.<br />
