then this arrogant person seeks glory for the religion with fine garments.. and he claims that he seeks glory and honor for the religion.. and no matter how much the tongue is loosed in envy of his peers or of those who responded to him with something of his words he does not think of himself that it is envy.. and he says it is only anger for the truth and a response to the false in his aggression and injustice.. and this is arrogant.. because if he attacked another of the scholars among his peers he might not get angry rather he might be happy even if he shows anger to people that he loves it.. and he might show knowledge and say my purpose with it is to benefit creation.. and this is nonsense because if his purpose was the improvement of creation he would have loved their improvement at the hands of others who are like him or above him.
ثم هذا المغرور يطلب العز للدين بالثياب الرفيعة.. ويزعم أنه يطلب عز الدين وشرفه.. ومهما أطلق اللسان فى الحسد فى أقرانه أو فيمن رد عليه شيئا من كلامه لم يظن بنفسه أن ذلك حسد.. ويقول إنما هو غضب للحق ورد على المبطل فى عدوانه وظلمه.. وهذ مغرور.. فإنه لو طعن في غيره من العلماء من أقرانه ربما لم يغضب، بل ربما يفرح وإن أظهر الغضب عند الناس بأنه يحبه.. وربما يظهر العلم ويقول غرضى به أن أفيد الخلق.. وهو هراء لأنه لو كان غرضه صلاح الخلق لأحب صلاحهم على يد غيره ممن هو مثله أو فوقه.
