So there came in the answer another signature in which it was written that God does not forgive association with Him, and He forgives what is less than that for whom He wills. God's mercy, God forgives all sins, for he is the Forgiving, the Merciful.

[ Repentance after sin and the sweetness of security with the Lord ]

We went back to the first signature and we say, when he reads this sincere signature that falsehood does not come to it from before it or from behind it, a revelation from the Wise, the Praiseworthy

The gatekeeper said to him, while he is the legislator, that the one who repents of sin is like one who has no sin

When this safety came to him, following that intense fear, he found a sweetness and a pleasure that he did not know before that, and it has been said about that.

Sweeter than security when the fearful

When he tastes this pleasure, he begins to do good deeds, purifies his place, and prepares to sit with the king

He says I am the companion of the one who remembers me

His knowledge of Him, Glory be to Him, and the knowledge of what His majesty deserves, and the knowledge of the destiny of His disobedience, was strengthened by all shyness, and the pleasure that he found when he came to repent to him is gone. The devotees of beginnings see it from the lights, for the novice conjures up the benefits of his actions and conditions and sees its results, and the learned sleep on seeing shortcomings and neglect of what the high heavens deserve, so he does not see in sleep except what concerns them of darkness, thunder, lightning and every matter of fear. For sleep follows the senses, and since the soul, by its nature, loves pleasurable things, and has lost the pleasure of repentance in the event of knowing it and its end, so it yearned for its beginning because of what is associated with that home of pleasure with the highness of his position, and this tenderness is a rest for him and the grief that his knowledge of God gave him, he is like the one who enjoys wishes. The reason for the end's longing for their beginning

[ The lower houses and what they give of the higher stations ]

As for the lower levels, they are what physical actions give from the higher stations, such as prayer, jihad, fasting, and every sensory work. Mathematical actions and struggles have specific results and for each action there is a state and a station, and he has made clear from some of that legislator to infer what he mentioned about what he was silent about in terms of the different results due to the different attributes and a definition that the supererogatory of every obligatory worship has its attribute from the attribute of its obligatory and that is why you complete it for him if his obligation is incomplete.

It was mentioned in the authentic hadith on the authority of the Messenger of God, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, that he said that the first thing he looks at from the work of a servant is prayer, and God says, Look at the prayer of my servant, whether it is complete or shortened. Volunteer He said: Complete for my servant his obligation from his voluntary, then the works will be taken on that one

As for the other hadith on the attributes of worship, it is

It was reported in the Sahih that the Messenger of God, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, said: Prayer is a light, charity is a proof, patience is a brightness, and the Qur an is a proof for you or against you.

So he made light for prayer and proof for charity, which is zakat, and illumination for fasting and pilgrimage.

He made there is no god but God in another news that does not weigh anything

And the supererogatory of each of these obligatory duties of its kind, describing it as its description, then he entered into his saying, All people become the seller of himself, so he freed it, and he is the one who sold it from God. It is the same as all the rulings of the Shari ah that are superfluous, obligatory, permissible and disliked

[ Shari ah Worships and Their Link to Divine Names and Realities ]

There is no worship legislated by God Almighty for His servants except that it is linked to a divine name or a divine reality of that name. He gives him in his worship that what he gives him in this world in his heart of his homes and his sciences and knowledge and in his conditions of his dignity and signs and in the hereafter in his gardens in his degrees and seeing his Creator in the dune in the Garden of Eden Especially in his ranks and

God Almighty has said about the one who is praying that he is calling him and he is a light

So Allah, the Most High, delivers him from his name the light, not from another name, just as the light repels every darkness, so prayer cuts off every occupation unlike other works, for it is no, yes, he left everything else like prayer. By witnessing him when he was speaking to him, then he started it in private soliloquy
