The article reveals the essence of God and man, the irfan interpretation of the truth. When describing the irfanic interpretation of truth, it is considered as a philosophical and epistemological description of contemplation in relation to the subject-event, noting that truth is determined by the correspondence of thought and knowledge to objective reality, i.e. in irfan, knowledge (ilm) means Truth (Haq), and truth means Allah, because Truth is one of the beautiful names of Allah. Truth is achieved through love and understanding of the Divine essence.
