Zbawczy wymiar teokalii w Koranie a ikonoklazm islamu
Salvific dimension of Theokalia in Koran and islamic iconoclasm

Summary/Abstract: God as the salvific subject discloses through names in Koran. In names of God is His Beauty concretizated. The mistery of God revealed in Koran according to islamie belief can appre¬hend in the category of theokalia (^ألأساء اس al-asmau l-husna). God is ascertained and handled through man in concrete names. According to islamie teachings, the Koran was rev- elated to the prophet Muhammad in the Arabic language. He heard the first of these revela¬tions in the cave of Hira with a voice commanding him: “Recite in the name of the Lord who created all things. [...] Recite! For the Lord is most Beneficent” (S. XCVfi, 1-5). The salva-tion in Koran is regarded as desire of viewing divine countenance (S. II, 272; VI, 52; XIII, 22; XVIII, 28; XXX, 38.39; XCII, 20). All salvated people will collapsed with human faces in front of God’s Majesty and dignified glory divine countenance (S. II, 255). Here on esrth is¬lamic rosary (٠تبغة subhatun; ب٠ذبذة misbahatun; ص tasbihun) is the concretisation of ontic Beauty of God. Specifing the beautiful names of God fire muslim handles divine countenance (زي اش waghu l-lahi) - sees icon of God. Muslim rosaiy realizes fire substitute function of icon. Islam is aniconic religion, because Koran doesn’t comprehend immediate prohibition of making the images of God and human figures. Koran prohibits to worship idols (S. XXI, 52 nn; XXXIV, 13). Creator of islam excludes the firinking about “images of God” (هذفت ش su- waru l-lahi), because in firis mode representation of God in heaven will be created by human beings. God is totaly souvereign. The talking about God as “watching” or “watched” (هثظور manzurun) will be suggested, firat He is “created” (شص[ر musawwarun) by human imagina¬tion. It’s compatible with confession of absolute monotheism. The term aniconic of islam is nearer the truth than islamic iconoclasm.
