He is not hateful, quarrelsome, and scandalous. He is neither faultfinding nor a backbiting one. He dislikes high positions and is an enemy of fame and publicity. He is الْهَمِّ inspired to grief which lasts for a long time; his ambition is far reaching. He very often remains silent, dignified, ever remembering (the Lord -saww ), and exercising patience, grateful, sad due to his thoughts, happy with his poverty.
