( In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful )

( Chapter One Hundred and Eight On Knowing Sedition and Lust, Companionship of Juveniles and Women, and Taking Attachment from them, and When the Desired Takes Attachment )

Do not accompany an event if you are If it happened *** nor women, be busy with God

And beware of blind sedition, for it has a strong judgment on the heart that is heedless

And the lust of the soul, so beware of it, for how many times it has destroyed the master of his heart on behalf of his Lord

And he does not see taking kindness from a woman *** except that one of the men of God has been perfected

[ Sedition is a test, confusion and guidance ]

Know, may God help you, that trial is a test. It is said that silver is tempted by fire if you test it. The Almighty said: Your money and your children are a trial, meaning we tested you with it. Did it shield you from us and what we set for you to stand at? Moses, peace be upon him, said:

[ One of the greatest trials of man is his creation in the image .]

One of the greatest trials with which God has tempted man is to let him know that He created him in his image to see whether he stands with his servitude and his ability, or is he arrogant because of the prestige of his image, since he has no form except the rule of names, so he controls the world as the ruler who is established in the image of truth over perfection, and also from supporting this temptation

The saying of the Prophet, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, that he narrates from his Lord: If a servant draws close to God through supererogatory deeds, he loves him, and if he loves him, it is his hearing with which he hears, his sight with which he sees, and the remembrance of the hand and the foot.

And if the servant knows that in this instance he hears the truth, sees the truth, oppresses the truth, and strives for the truth, not himself, and he remains with this divine attribute a pure and poor slave, and his witnesses are from the truth and he is with this repentance, because the truth descends to his servants with joy in their repentance and anger for those who come to his house and amazement at the young man who suppressed his desires His being characterized by hunger on behalf of the hunger of his servant, and thirst on behalf of the thirst of his servant, and by sickness on behalf of the illness of his servant, with his knowledge of what the pride of his lordship and his pride in his divinity requires, so what is the effect of this descending on his greater power nor on his pride in the most ancient honor? The perfection of the image that he said that He created me in such that the position of my ability, the status of my servitude, the attribute of my poverty and my need, is not absent from me, just as the truth, when descending to our attribute, was present in his pride and greatness. Divine guardianship and I did not remove him from his poverty and compulsion, and whoever exceeds his limit in approximation is reversed to the opposite, which is distance from God and hatred, so beware yourself, for the fitnah with expansion is greater than the fitnah with embarrassment and narrowness.

[ Lust is an instrument of the soul that rises or falls according to its object .]

As for lust, it is an instrument of the soul that rises above the height of the craving and lowers the craving for the craving, and lust is the desire for pleasure in what one should enjoy, and pleasure is both spiritual and natural pleasures, and the partial soul is generated from nature, which is its mother, and the divine spirit is its father. There is nothing between us and the truth except in the form

[ A person s enjoyment of his perfection is the most intense pleasure .]

The pleasure of a person in his entirety is the most intense pleasure, so the pleasure of someone who is in his image is the most evident proof that the human being does not pass through all the pleasure and does not perish in witnessing a thing in its entirety, and love and love do not flow in the nature of his spirituality unless he loves a slave girl or a boy, and the reason for that is that he meets him in his entirety because he is in his image Everything in the world is a part of it, and it is not matched by it except with that appropriate part.

[ Lust, which is the demand of the inheritors of knowledge .]

If the Divine Manifestation occurred in the very form in which Adam was created, the meaning corresponded to the meaning, and the pleasure of the whole occurred, and lust ran through all parts of man, outwardly and inwardly. Beloved and lovers are greater pleasure and stronger love in the grace of God than the love of sex, for the divine image is more complete in the servant than the similitude of the sex, because the sex cannot be your hearing and your sight, rather its goal is for you to be heard and perceived as an accusative noun.
