Mental intoxication never, but he may have knowledge of it and its rank without having any effect on it, which is taste. Mental drunkenness may initially be endowed with taste, so it is not possible for him to have a taste in natural sugar, but he may move to divine sugar as a taste, so the rule of mental drunkenness is removed from him as taste and status and remains for him. Knowledge of it is by way of taste, because his taste has preceded it before it moves, so this is the case with the intoxication of the people of the path in divine matters, but in non-divine matters, it may be possible to combine the two intoxicants in the picture. He has a taste, and the matter is not like that, for taste is only from reverence and knowledge may happen by transmitting true, true goodness. This is how you know the way of God, O my guardian, for I have given you the balance of matters in these stations and I have shown you their basis, and you do not find this statement in other than this book in the words of this sect except that There are references from them to this in some of what is reported about them, for they know it is a necessity if they are people of taste and they are people of taste, as there is only one of them who has taste. All of God's people were The one who oppresses himself is not one who is economical in that which is unjust and is not preceded in that which is economical with the fact that each of them is chosen from the inheritors of the Divine Book. Rather, he gives the correct disclosure that he will not be unjust to himself if he tastes the economy, as well as what remains without restriction, for the rule of tastes in matters and the acquisition of knowledge It is similar to the rule of all other paths, so know that, and God says the truth, and He guides the way.

" Chapter Two Hundred and Forty-Seven "

Awakening comes with the eye of knowledge and literature *** if it is not a sound judgment and reason

The ward of awakening is stronger for a group of *** than the ward of drunkenness, as it suffices for joy

And the amusement by which all souls will live, and there is no amusement and games in the morning

For that is the strength of some people and the weakest of them ***

[ The awakening among people is a return to the senses after absence with a strong response ]

Know that the awakening of the people is a return to the feeling after absence with a strong impulse, and know that they have set the limit of drunkenness that it is a strong impulse, as well as the awakening that it is a strong impulse, and what they said is that it is stronger, and that the place described as drunkenness and the awakening of these two pronouns, with their equal strength, they both disagree, but the intoxication of drunkenness is first, for it is a companion The place has the right to prevent, but it is not possible for the incoming to come to a place except in proportion and willingness from the place asking for that proportion or preparation that appropriate incoming and if the incomings are equal, if the incoming comes and in the place other than it and finds the proportion and willingness to ask him, he is judged and removed from him the rule of the other incoming that was in him not due to his strength and weakness of the other It's about proportion and readiness

[ Awakening is only possible after drunkenness ]

And know that he is not healthy in this way except after drunkenness. As for before drunkenness, he is neither a righteous person nor a healthy person. Rather, it is said that he is not in a state of drunkenness, rather he is a person of presence or survival, and so on. Then know that the awakening of every drunk is according to his drunkenness on a correct scale, so he must come with knowledge. Investigator benefited in the absence of his drunkenness, if his awakening was healthy, he was never drunk, drunk on the road, as knowledge is a condition in the sober of drunkenness. This is the way of the people of God, because the divine generosity does not contain miserliness nor is there any incapacity in his ability. In the case of his awakening, it is acceptable because he is a just witness, and the drunken s statement, and if he is a fair witness, then he is not accepted if he contradicts the saying of the sober, even if it is true. It is well-known established in the law of God in general and particular, such as Al-Shibli and Al-Hallaj, so Al-Shibli and Al-Hallaj said, I and Al-Hallaj drank from one cup, so I woke up and got drunk, so he was imprisoned until he was killed. He said the same as what I said, so we accepted the statement of Al-Shibli and preferred it over Al-Hallaj s saying because he was sober and Al-Hallaj was intoxicated So awakening by God and being drunk by God must contain knowledge of God, and what does not give knowledge is neither clear path nor drunkenness.
