Glory

Jalal carries deep devotional-poetic resonance in Persian mystical (Sufi) literature (e.g. Rumi, whose own name means ‘Splendor of the Faith’), paired in that tradition with jamal (beauty) as complementary divine attributes. This can help (real devotional weight already attached) or risk conflating Christ’s specific historical glory with generalized Sufi mystical-aesthetic categories of divine splendor.
