take my word for it and leave abu alaass. take the word of the one who said live and do not be deceived. and the one who said do not seek a trace after a spring. and the one who said fill your love with the first rain and leave what makes you doubt for what does not make you doubt. your brother is the one who is honest with you and comes to you from the perspective of your mind and does not come to you from the perspective of your desire. and your brother is the one who bears the burden of your advice in your fortune and you do not feel safe from his blame for your future. and the other said
خذ بقولي، ودع قول أبي العاص. وخذ بقول من قال عش ولا تغتر ، ويقول من قال لا تطلب أثرا بعد عين ، ويقول من قال املأ حبك من أول مطرة و دع ما يريبك الى ما لا يريبك . أخوك من صدقك ومن أتاك من جهة عقلك، ولم يأتك من جهة شهوتك. وأخوك من احتمل ثقل نصيحتك في حظك، ولم تأمن لائمته إياك في غدك. وقال الآخر
