" "INTELLECT AND ITS NOBLE NATURE. The noble nature of knowledge has been revealed through intellect. Intellect is the source and fountainhead of knowledge and its foundation. Knowledge is like the fruit of a tree and it flows from intellect, or like the light of the sun or like the vision of the eye. Why should it not be honored when it is the cause of fortune in this world and the next? What is there to distinguish between beasts and men except intellect? Even a ferocious beast which has got more strength than man fears a man at seeing him as it knows that he may put him into snare on account of his intellect.

Aku telah menerobos setiap celah yang gelap, aku telah menyerang setiap persoalan, aku telah menyelam ke dalam setiap lautan, aku telah meneliti akidah semua sekte, aku telah menelanjangi semua doktrin rahasia setiap komunitas. Semua ini kulakukan agar aku dapat membedakan antara kebenaran dan kesesatan, antara tradisi yang sahih dan pembaruan yang bid'ah

Some may say that the resources of the world are necessary for men to pass their lives in this world. How can they abstain from using these necessaries of life? It may be noted carefully that whatever has been said about Zuhd (abstinence) pertains to the possession and use of useless and superfluous things of life. The practice of Zuhd has been advised about things which are not indispensable for life in this world. None can advise against using things which are necessary to maintain health so necessary for keeping body and soul together and for devotion and worship in the path of Exalted Allah.
