Alam Al Mulk
Alam al Mulk (''the kingdom'') is a term of islamic cosmology and refers to the realm, representing the physical plane, including medicine, engineering and everything, that can be perceived by the five senses. Higher Realms are not thought to be spatial, rather a ''higher realm'' means, it impinges the realms below. The physical plane is therefore influenced by Alam al Malakut (imaginal realm) and which is in turn influenced by Alam al Jabarut ''Alam al-Jabarut'' ( ar, عالم الجبروت ("World of Power") Cyril Glassé, Huston Smith ''The New Encyclopedia of Islam'' Rowman Altamira 2003 pp. 144–45) is realm proposed in Islamic cosmology.

Malakut
Al-Malakut meaning ''Realm of Dominion'' ( ar, عالم الملكوت), also known as Hurqalya, is a proposed invisible realm, featuring in Islamic cosmology. The Quran speaks of "malakut al-samawat" (''Kingdom of God''), supposedly a realm close to God. The concept is attested by the writings of al-Ghazali (c. 1058–1111), but limited to epistemological categories of understanding metaphysical realities (spirits, heavens, etc.). Only centuries later, in particular with the Illuministic school of thought (''Ishrāqi'') and ibn Arabi (1165 – 1240), was it developed into a full ontological concept. ''Malakut'' is sometimes used interchangeably with ''alam al-mithal'', but otherwise distinguished from it as a realm between ''alam al-mithal'' and '' alam al-Jabarut.'' In this context, ''Malakut'' is a plane below the high angels, but higher than the plane where jinn and demons live. The higher realms are not spatially separated worlds but impinge the realms below. Al-Ghazali I ...

Alam Al Jabarut
''Alam al-Jabarut'' ( ar, عالم الجبروت ("World of Power") Cyril Glassé, Huston Smith ''The New Encyclopedia of Islam'' Rowman Altamira 2003 pp. 144–45) is realm proposed in Islamic cosmology. According to Suhrawardi (1154–1191), this is the highest realm, and denotes the place of God's presence. Below ''alam al-jabarut'' lies '' alam al-malakut'' ("World of Sovereignty"), followed by alam al-mulk ("World of Dominion"). The term ''jabarut'' doesn't appear in the Quran, but ''al-jabbar'' does (59:23). Thus the things in al-jabarut were whose which cannot change and are compelled in their state of eternity. In the writings of al-Ghazali (c. 1058–1111), ''alam al-jabarut'' has not been conceived as the highest realm yet, but connects the physical realm (''al-mulk'') with the intelligible world (''al-malakut''). First centuries later, ''alam al-jabarut'' becomes an independent ontological realm, latest within the writings of Suhrawardi. Here, '' al-malakut'' is belo ...
