they need to suppress it by spending money.. so they are busy seeking virtues while they are distracted from them.. their example is like the one who has a snake enter his garment.. and he is on the verge of death.. and they are busy seeking sakangbin to calm his bile.. and how does someone who has been bitten by a snake need that?!.. therefore it was said to bishr alhafi soandso fasts and prays a lot.. he said the poor man left his situation.. and entered the situation of someone else.. and the situation of this one is feeding the hungry.. and spending on the poor.. that is better for him than starving himself.. and than his prayers.. while he is collecting worldly things and withholding from the poor..
محتاجون إلى قمعه بإخراج المال.. فاشتغلوا بطلب فضائل وهم مشتغلون عنها.. ومثالهم مثال من دخلت فى ثوبه حية.. وقد أشرف على الهلاك.. وهم مشغول عنها بطلب السكنجبين ليسكن به الصفراء.. ومن لدغته الحية كيف يحتاج إلى ذلك؟!.. ولذلك قيل لبشر الحافى إن فلانا كثير الصوم والصلاة.. فقال المسكين ترك حاله.. ودخل فى حال غيره.. وإنما حال هذا إطعام الطعام للجائع.. والإنفاق على المساكين.. فهو أفضل له من تجويع نفسه.. ومن صلاته.. مع جمعه للدنيا ومنعه للفقراء..
