I just had a thought which sparked from a book I read. It is perhaps thought
philosophically that our physical matter which is composed of many gases
and dust particles is truly a wall (or barrier) for our true illuminating being?
Of course such a being would transcend from the physical plane but I would
think in accordance to Kalam this would be a valid thought. Or would
this conflict with the creation of the Angels and them solely being the only
creature in God's creature created from light?
