greatness, My power, My radiance, and My highness in My place, if a servant prefers My desire to
his desire, I will place riches in his soul, make him take care of his life in the hereafter, stretch out
My hand to him during his loss, the heavens and the earth will guarantee his provision, and I will
be for him from behind the trade of every trader.
"O Hisham, stick to gentleness, for, most surely, gentleness is a blessing, and foolishness is ill‐
omen. Most surely, gentleness, piety, and good manners make houses flourishing and increase
daily bread. "O Hisham, these words of Him, the Exalted: Is the reward of goodness is aught but
goodness? concern the pious and the wicked; whoever is done a favor, he should reward for it.
The reward is not that you do a favor as he does a favor, that you may see your favor. If you do a
favor as he does, then the favor belongs to him due to the beginning. "O Hisham, the world is just
like a snake‐a soft thing to touch but a deadly poison is in its head; men with understanding guard
against it but boys swoop down on it with their hands. "O Hisham, be patient to obedience to
Allah, and be patient to acts of disobedience to Allah, for the life in the world is an hour. You find
neither delight nor sadness in the part of it that passes, and you do not know that part of it that
will come. Therefore, be patient to that hour and you will be delighted.
"O Hisham, the world is just like the water of a sea; the more the thirsty drinks of it, the more
thirsty he is until it kills him. "O Hisham, be ware of pride, for whoever has in his heart a little bit
of pride does not enter the Garden; pride is the garment of Allah, so whoever disputes with Him
over His garment, He will throw him down on his face into the fire "O Hisham, whoever does not
reckon himself every day does not belong to us; if he performs good deed, he must increase it; if
he performs evil deeds, he must ask Allah to forgive him of it and turn in repentance to Him.
"O Hisham, the world appeared before al‐Maseeh, peace be on him, in the image of a blue
woman, and he asked her: 'How many husband have you married?' 'Many,' she answered. 'Have
they all divorced you?' he asked her. 'Rather, I have killed them all,' she replied. 'So, woe unto the
rest of your husbands! Why do they not learn a lesson from the past?' he asked her.
"O Hisham, surely the eye is the light of the body; if the eye is luminous, the whole of the body
seeks light (from it); the light of soul is reason; if the servant is sane, he has knowledge of his Lord;
if he has knowledge of his Lord, he knows his religion; if he has no knowledge of his Lord, he does
not establish His religion; the body does not last except through a living soul, similarly the religion
does not last except through a true intention; the true intention is not firm except through reason.
"O Hisham, surely plants grow in a plain and do not grow in solid rocks; similarly, wisdom grow in
the heart of the humble and do not grow in the heart of the proud and tyrannical. That is because
Allah has regarded humbleness as the tool of reason and regarded pride as the tool of ignorance.
Do you not know that whoever raises his head high towards a ceiling, he breaks it; and that
whoever lowers his head, he shades himself under it, and it covers him? Likewise whoever does
not behave humbly before Allah, Allah lowers him; and whoever behaves humbly before Allah; he
