You should know that a word of wise should be the lost of the believers; therefore, search for them before they are removed. The removal of the words of wisdom is the demise of their relaters. O seeker of knowledge, reverence the scholars for their knowledge and stop disputing them. Disrespect the ignorant for their ignorance. Do not dismiss them; you should favor and teach them.
O seeker of knowledge, you should know that any grace for which you do not show gratitude is considered as a sin for which you will be judged. O seeker of knowledge, you should know that any act of disobedience of which you do not repent is considered as a matter of punishment that you will encounter. O seeker of knowledge, you are facing numerous misfortunes that you do not know when they will befall you; hence, prepare for them before they surprise you.
Jesus the prophet (peace be upon him) said to his companions: Supposing you pass by one of your brothers and find that his dress was raised and a part of his genitals was shown. Will you screen him or reveal the genitals completely? "We will surely screen him," answered they. Jesus (peace be upon him) answered: No, you will reveal the genitals completely. Hence, they realized that he had provided them a proverb. "O Spirit of God, How is that?" they asked.
He explained: As you notice your brother's flaw, you do not cover him. Truly I say to you: I am teaching you so that you will be learning, not be self-conceited. You will never attain your wish before you desert your passions and you will not win your hope unless you tolerate the dismayed matters. Beware of gazing (at forbidden matters), for a single look may delve passion in the heart. Passion, then, is a sufficient seditious matter for its bearers.
Blessed be those who make their sights in their hearts and not make their hearts in the sight of their eyes. Do not watch people's defects like lords. Look in their defects like slaves (of people). Men are one of two: either diseased or healthy. Compassionate the diseased and thank God for the good health. O sons of Israel, do you not feel ashamed of God? You will not drink something before you purify it from dirt, but you do not care if you drink any quantity of ill-gotten milk.
