Ar-Rashid is still wrong. In fact, now it’s Allah!

Here’s Ar-Rashid calligraphically written:

Interesting enough, I suppose, though I would have liked something to happen after I got them all. (Though maybe nothing is something?) Also, ‘The Originator’ appears twice.

I collected around 60 of the names, having thought that I collected them all, and then headed due Northwest from the Greatest Name.

The whiteness of the surrounding landscape was hostile and yet the urge to find something beyond the beyond pushed me forward. After a period of time, I felt as though I couldn’t bear the feeling of isolation and rushed back to the comfort of the Names. There was a moment when I thought I was most certainly lost and would never find the Names again. As though answering my own thoughts, the Names appeared in the distance, and I could feel a heaviness lifted from my chest.

I wandered around the Names and discovered there were several more that I had not seen before. In time, I collected all the Names I believe exist, and set out due Southeast from the Patient One.

I had a feeling that perhaps having collected all the Names, surely something astounding would occur.

Much time had passed, and still I could not see anything beyond the whiteness of the horizon, nor could I hear anything besides the incessant howl of the wind.

I had made sure this time around to head out in a straight line, so as to avoid the chance of getting lost. With the comfort of this knowledge I was able to head out further than I had before, but it was not long before I could not endure the feeling of isolation and decided to return to the Names once again.

I arrived at the Patient One and rested.

My feeling was the same than Gavento’s. Fisrtly, ithgought taht iit was a kind of puzzle game, but after reading names, they inspired me and i just wanted to know what was the next. you just read and think, and that’s it, i don’t need more.

The name, “Ar-Rashid” was definitely spelled wrong. The word you had in there wasn’t even close. I can remember enough Arabic to say that with certainty at least.

The goal is not to pick up, appropriate, and condemn, but to see complexity, being perplexed, and pose questions on return from nothingness.

Besides of seeing this in the light of search, of effervescence, of god being everywhere, I cannot help but see it in the light of what I as a westerner see in the typical muslim.
