[Machine] "When you see a group of people producing something without consulting their leaders, they are laying the foundations of misguidance."
عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ «إِذَا رَأَيْتَ قَوْمًا يُنْتِجُونَ بِأَمْرٍ دُونَ عَامَّتِهِمْ فَهُمْ عَلَى تَأْسِيسِ الضَّلَالَةِ»
[Machine] The English translation of the provided text is: "What do you tempt the children of Adam with, O Satan?" They replied, "We tempt them with everything." Satan said, "Do you tempt them with seeking forgiveness?" They said, "Never! That is something they associate with faith in God." Satan said, "I will stay among them and encourage them towards desires that they will not seek forgiveness for from Allah." So, he spread among them worldly desires.
إِبْلِيسُ لِأَوْلِيَائِهِ مِنْ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ تَأْتُونَ بَنِي آدَمَ؟ فَقَالُوا مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَالَ فَهَلْ تَأْتُونَهُمْ مِنْ قِبَلِ الِاسْتِغْفَارِ؟ فَقَالُوا هَيْهَاتَ ذَاكَ شَيْءٌ قُرِنَ بِالتَّوْحِيدِ قَالَ لَأَبُثَّنَّ فِيهِمْ شَيْئًا لَا يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ اللَّهَ مِنْهُ قَالَ فَبَثَّ فِيهِمُ الْأَهْوَاءَ
[Machine] I do not know which of the two blessings is greater upon me, whether it is being guided to Islam or being protected from these desires.
مَا أَدْرِي أَيُّ النِّعْمَتَيْنِ عَلَيَّ أَعْظَمُ أَنْ هَدَانِي لِلْإِسْلَامِ أَوْ عَافَانِي مِنْ هَذِهِ الْأَهْوَاءِ
[Machine] A man who fasted all his life and spent his whole life in worship, then was killed between the corner (of the Ka'bah) and the Station (of Ibrahim). Allah will gather him on the Day of Resurrection with those whom it is perceived were upon guidance."
أَنَّ رَجُلًا صَامَ الدَّهْرَ كُلَّهُ وَقَامَ الدَّهْرَ كُلَّهُ ثُمَّ قُتِلَ بَيْنَ الرُّكْنِ وَالْمَقَامِ لَحَشَرَهُ اللَّهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَعَ مَنْ يُرَى أَنَّهُ كَانَ عَلَى هُدًى»
[Machine] Salman said, "If a man places his head on the Black Stone and fasts during the day and stands in prayer at night, Allah will raise him up on the Day of Resurrection with his desire."
سَلْمَانُ «لَوْ وَضَعَ رَجُلٌ رَأْسَهُ عَلَى الْحَجَرِ الْأَسْوَدِ فَصَامَ النَّهَارَ وَقَامَ اللَّيْلَ لَبَعَثَهُ اللَّهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَعَ هَوَاهُ»
[Machine] Ali, be like the bee among people, for there is nothing in birds that does not belittle it. If birds knew the blessings within their innards, they would not do this to it. Mix with people with your tongues, bodies, and enrich them with your actions and hearts. Indeed, a person will have what he has earned, and he will be on the Day of Judgment with those whom he loves.
عَلِيٌّ كُونُوا فِي النَّاسِ كَالنَّحْلَةِ فِي الطَّيْرِ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنَ الطَّيْرِ شَيْءٌ إِلَّا وَهُوَ يَسْتَضْعِفُهَا وَلَوْ يَعْلَمُ الطَّيْرُ مَا فِي أَجْوَافِهَا مِنَ الْبَرَكَةِ لَمْ يَفْعَلُوا ذَلِكَ بِهَا خَالِطُوا النَّاسَ بِأَلْسِنَتِكُمْ وَأَجْسَادِكُمْ وَزَايِلُوهُمْ بِأَعْمَالِكُمْ وَقُلُوبِكُمْ فَإِنَّ لِلْمَرْءِ مَا اكْتَسَبَ وَهُوَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ
[Machine] "Yes, the Minister of Knowledge is a good opinion."
«نِعْمَ وَزِيرُ الْعِلْمِ الرَّأْيُ الْحَسَنُ»
أَنْ يُعْجَبَ بِعِلْمِهِ»
[Machine] "To have private gatherings where he mentions his sins and seeks forgiveness from Allah Almighty for them."
أَنْ يَكُونَ لَهُ مَجَالِسُ يَخْلُو فِيهَا فَيَذْكُرُ ذُنُوبَهُ فَيَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى مِنْهَا»
