from all of that from fear of a competitor or the attack of an envious person or the theft of a desirer or the acquisition of an enemy with blame and sin and other things. and i found that working for the hereafter is free from every defect pure from every turbidity and leads to the expulsion of worry in truth. and i found that the worker for the hereafter if he is tested with something bad in that path does not care but is happy because his hope in the outcome of what he obtains from it is a help to him in what he seeks. he does not care because he is not held accountable for that so it has no effect on what he seeks. and i found that if he intends harm he is happy and if he tires himself in what he follows he is happy so he is in continuous happiness forever and others are the opposite of that forever. so know that there is only one goal which is the expulsion of worry and there is only one path to it which is working for the sake of allah the most high. so anything other than this is misguidance and foolishness.
من كل ذلك من خوف منافس، أو طعن حاسد، أو اختلاس راغب، أو اقتناء عدو، مع الذم والإثم وغير ذلك. ووجدت العمل للآخرة سالما من كل عيب، خالصا من كل كدر، موصلا إلى طرد الهم على الحقيقة. ووجدت العامل للآخرة إن امتحن بمكروه في تلك السبيل لم يهتم بل يسر، إذ رجاؤه في عاقبة ما ينال منه، عون له على ما يطلب، لم يهتم، إذ ليس مؤاخذا بذلك، فهو غير مؤثر فيما يطلب. ووجدته إن قصد بالأذى سر، وإن تعب فيما سلك فيه سر، فهو في سرور متصل أبدا، وغيره بخلاف ذلك أبدا. فاعلم أنه مطلوب واحد، وهو طرد الهم، وليس إليه طريق واحد، وهو العمل لله تعالى. فما عدا هذا فضلال وسخف.
