And the thinnest pen on his tablet *** Write about it your kind description

You are the eye of all, not the same *** you are the lowest of the face and the furthest

Do not be content with what you are pleased with *** for the sake of what pleases you

Be on your origin in all that *** wants, do not forget to forget you

This is the knowledge that came to me *** from someone who said I am not in your mouth

He brought it down on the matter of the sign *** between ascetics and hermits

And praise be to God who singled me *** with the knowledge of lights and darks

He singled me out with a picture whose perfection was only by Iwak

[ Fasting is abstinence and lifting up ]

Know, may God help you, that fasting is abstinence and elevation. It is said that he fasted the day when it rose. Imru al-Qays said

If the day fasts and deserted

That is, it was raised, and when fasting was elevated from all other acts of worship in rank, it was called Sawm, and He raised it, Glory be to Him, by denying homosexuality in worship, as we will mention, and taking it away from His servants with their worship of it.

[ Fasting, in fact, is abstaining from work .]

And in fact, he left no action, and the denial of homosexuality is a negative adjective, thus strengthening the appropriateness between him and God. He the Most High said in the right of Himself that there is nothing like Him. So he denied that he has an example, as He, Glory be to Him, has no likeness with rational and legal significance.

An-Nasa i narrated on the authority of Abu Umamah, he said: I came to the Messenger of God, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, and said, Tell me something that I will take from you. He said, You have to fast, for there is nothing like it.

He denied that it is equivalent to one of the acts of worship that was prescribed for his servants

[ Fasting on the truth is neither worship nor deed .]

Whoever knows that it is a negative description, as it is the abandonment of things that break the fast, knows for sure that he is not like him, because he has no eye that is characterized by existence that makes sense.

God Almighty said fasting for me

Indeed, it is neither worship nor action, and the name of the action if it is called in it is permissible as the term existent refers to the reasonable truth with us, since whoever has the same existence as his essence does not resemble the attribution of existence to us, for there is nothing like Him.

( Referring to a divine hadith )

Muslim came out in the Sahih on the authority of Abu Hurairah, he said the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, said, God Almighty and Exalted be He, said, Every deed of the son of Adam is for him except fasting. A person who is fasting, I am fasting, and by Him in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, the smell of the mouth of the fasting person is better in the sight of God on the Day of Resurrection than the scent of musk, and the fasting person has two joys, when he breaks his fast, he rejoices in his fast, and when he meets his Lord, the Mighty and Sublime, he rejoices in his fasting.

[ The joy of the fasting person is to the degree of his denial of similarity ]

And know that when he denied homosexuality about fasting, as was proven in the foregoing hadith of an-Nasa i, and the truth is not something like it, the fasting person met his Lord, the Mighty and Sublime. Joy does not rejoice in itself, but rather rejoices in it. And whoever sees the truth when he sees it and sees it, he does not see himself except by seeing it. So the fasting person rejoiced in his denial of similarity, and his joy was in breaking the fast in this world in terms of conveying the right of the animal soul that seeks food for itself. His generosity with the food that he brought to her in fulfillment of her right that God enjoined upon him, he stood in this position as a right and was given by God s hand as he sees the right when meeting with God s eyes.

( Explanation of what this news contains )

And since the servant was described as having fasting, and he deserved the name of the fasting person in this capacity, then after establishing fasting for him, he stripped him of the right from him and added it to himself, so he said: Except for fasting. By releasing the honor that should be for My Majesty, so I said, and I will reward it, then the truth is the reward of fasting for the fasting person if he turns to his Lord and meets him with an unparalleled description, which is fasting, when he does not see anything like him, except for the one who is not like him. People of taste Whoever is found on his journey, his recompense is what necessitated this verse in this case.

[ The difference between denying homosexuality about God and fasting ]

then

Saying that fasting is a paradise

And it is prevention, like his saying, and fear God, that is, take him for protection, and be for him also
