Commentary
Al-Hawl: the transformation. It is said: he changed from his place a change, like saying: her love returned to me a return. This means: there is no more for it until their souls contend for their collective purposes and desires. This is the ultimate description, for a person in this world, in whatever bliss he is, is always aspiring for something higher than it. It is possible that the meaning is the negation of transformation and the affirmation of eternity.
