The Meccan Revelations: Page 440 from Volume Four

He said: If the owner of the time treats his time in the way that is due to him, and fulfills his rights, he is free from abhorrence in it. If his concern in his time is attached to what is outside of his time, then he is in his time a person of abhorrence because he is occupied with the non-existent rather than the present, and politeness is only with the present, so much so that if he is polite to the absent person, he will not be polite to him in terms of He is absent, but he is polite with his name when he mentions, and if he mentions the absent person, his name is present in the utterance of the mention of him, and politeness only occurs with a present person, for the mentioned person is the one who is remembering him with the mention, so do not concern yourself with what is out of your time, for you will be among those who hate time, and those who hate time, for that is the abhorrence of God, so beware.
