It seems that "hurqaliya" is one of the key concepts in the thought of Sheikh Ahmad Ahsai which helps solve many difficulties and ambiguities of his works, for he endeavored to interpret things like the life of Imam Zaman, the bodily ascension of the Prophet, and bodily resurrection with the hurqaliyan life and body. This word was used and explained for the first time by Suhrawardi in his Hikmat al-Ishraq. Later, Sheikh Ahmad Ahsai promoted and extended this concept. In this article we try to explain the meaning of this word used by Ahsai, the founder of the Shaikhieh School, in his works. Then, we will criticize his interpretation of the bodily ascension of the Prophet and bodily resurrection, which is based on this concept.
