keep yourself content with those who call upon their lord morning and evening seeking his pleasure and do not let your eyes pass beyond them. do you seek the pomp and glitter of the world? do not follow him whose heart we have caused to be heedless of our remembrance and who follows his desires and whose attitude is of excess.
واصبر نفسك مع الذين يدعون ربهم بالغداة والعشي يريدون وجهه ولا تعد عيناك عنهم تريد زينة الحياة الدنيا ولا تطع من أغفلنا قلبه عن ذكرنا واتبع هواه وكان أمره فرطا
