" "فإنَّ العبدَ صعيفٌ ، والزَّمانُ صعبٌ ، وأمرُ الدِّينِ متراجعٌ ، والفراغ قليلٌ ، والشُّغلُ كثيرٌ ، والعمرُ قصيرٌ ، وفي العملِ تقصيرٌ ، والنَّاقدُ بصيرٌ ، وإلى اللَّهِ المصيرُ ، والأجلُ قريبٌ ، والسَّفرُ بعيدٌ ، والطَّاعةُ هي الزَّادُ فلا بدَّ منها وهي فائتةٌ فلا مردَّ لها ، فمن ظفرَ بها . . فقد فازَ وسعدَ أبدَ الآبدينَ ، ومن فاته ذلك . . فقد خسرَ مع الخاسرينَ ، وهلكَ مَعَ الهالكينَ

Were it conceivable that a person see only the sun and its light spreading over the horizon, it would be right for him to say: I see only the sun, for the light radiating from it is part of the whole and not extrinsic to it. So everything in existence is a light from the lights of the eternal power, and a trace from its traces. And as the sun is the source of light radiating to every illuminated thing, so in a similar fashion the meaning which words fall short of expressing-though it was necessarily expressed as 'the eternal power'-is the source of existence radiating to every existing thing.
