لِيأْخُذِ العَبْدُ مِنْ نَفْسِه لِنَفْسِه...
لِيأْخُذِ العَبْدُ مِنْ نَفْسِه لِنَفْسِه، وَمِنْ دُنْيَاهُ لآخِرَتِهِ، وَمِنَ الشَّيْبَةِ قَبْلَ الكِبَرِ، وَمِنَ الحَيَاةِ قَبْلَ المَمَاتِ، فَمَا بَعْدَ الدُّنْيَا مِنْ دَارٍ الاّ الجَنَّةُ أو النَّارُ. Man should save something from himself for himself, from this world for the next, from youth before old age, and from this life before death, for there will be no dwelling save Heaven and Hell beyond this world. الرَّجُلُ فِي ظِلِّ صَدَقَتِهِ حَتَّى يُقْضَى بَيْنَ النَّاسِ.
Man will be under the shield of his charitable acts until he is judged among people (in the Day of Judgement). لَيَأْتِيَنَّ عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ لا يَبْقَى مِنْهُمْ أحَدٌ إلاّ أكَلَ الرِّبَا؛ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَأْكُلْهُ أصَابَهُ مِنْ غُبَارِهِ. Man will see a day when all people would be involved in usury; and if not, they would at least be affected by its results. لَيَأْتِيَنَّ عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ لا يُبَالِى المَرْءُ بِمَا أخَذَ المَالَ، أَمِنْ حَلالٍ أَمْ مِنْ حَرَامٍ.
Man will see a day when people will not care for the way to earn money- lawfully or unlawfully! جَمَالُ المَرْءِ فَصَاحَةُ لِسَانِهِ. Man's beauty lies in his eloquence of speech. الجَمَالُ في الرَّجُلِ اللِّسَانُ. Man's beauty lies in his tongue.
تُعْرَضُ الأعْمَالُ يَوْمَ الاِثْنَيْنِ وَالخَمِيْسِ عَلَى اللَّهِ؛ وَتُعْرَضُ عَلَى الأنْبِيَاءِ وَعَلَى الآبَاءِ وَالأُمَّهَاتِ يَوْمَ الجُمْعَةِ؛ فَيَفْرَحُونَ بِحَسَنَاتِهِمْ؛ وَتَزْدَادُ وُجُوهُهُمْ بَيَاضَاً وَاِشْرَاقَاً، فَاتَّقُوْا اللَّهَ وَلا تُؤْذُوْا مَوْتَاكُمْ. Man's deeds are presented to God on Mondays and Thursdays, and to prophets and parents on Fridays. They rejoice by (their children's) good deeds and turn brighter in their faces.
Fear God, therefore, and hurt not your dead ones. تُعْرَضُ الأعْمَالُ عَلَى اللَّهِ تَعَالى يَوْمَ الاِثْنَيْنِ وَالخَمِيْسِ؛ فَيَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ اِلاّ ما كانَ مِنْ مُتشَآحِنِيْنَ أَوْ قَاطِعِ رَحِمٍ. Man's deeds are presented to the Exalted God on Mondays and Thursdays, and He forgives all sins save the sins of belligerent people and those who break bonds of kinship. اللِّبَاسُ يُظْهِرُ الغِنَى، وَالدُّهْنُ يُذْهِبُ البُوْسَ، وَالإحْسانُ إلى المَمْلُوْكِ يَكْبِتُ اللَّهُ بِهِ العَدُوَّ.
Man's dress shows his riches, fragrant oil makes poverty disappear, and benevolence to (one's) subjects causes God to put (your) enemy to shame. دِيْنُ المَرْءِ عَقْلُهُ، وَمَنْ لا عَقْلَ لَهُ لا دِيْنَ لَهُ. Man's faith lies in his wisdom and thus, whoever is devoid of wisdom is bereft of faith.
