[26] لا تذكر الله سبحانه ساهيا و لا تنسه لاهيا و اذكره [ذكرا] كاملا يوافق فيه قلبك لسانك و يطابق إضمارك إعلانك و لن تذكره حقيقة الذكر حتى تنسى نفسك في ذكرك و تفقدها في أمرك Neither do ‘Zikr’ [27] of Allah -azwj in drowsiness nor forget to mention Him when involved in ‘Lahu Lahab’ (un-Islamic pleasures), but mention Him -azwj with full concentration so that your heart supports what you utter from your tongue, your internal feelings are reflected by your gestures.
You can never do justice to His -azwj ‘Zikr’ until you forget about yourself and lose yourself in His -azwj Remembrance’.
‘‘‘We gave wisdom to Luqman (31:12), ’ means: Allah -azwj gave Luqman Intelligence and understanding. ‘O Hisham, Luqman said to his son: ‘Revere the Truth; you will be the most intelligent among men. Cleverness in the presence of Intelligence has a very small value. My son, the world is a very deep ocean in which many people have drowned.
You must take piety before Allah -azwj as a ship, faith as supplies therein, ‘التَّوَكُّلَ’ (‘Tawakkal’-trust) in Allah -azwj as the sails, intelligence as captain, knowledge as guide and patience as passengers’. ‘O Hisham, for everything there is a guide. The guide for Intelligence is the ‘Taffakur’ deep thinking. The guide for thinking is silence. For everything there is a means of mobility. The means of mobility for Intelligence is humble attitude.
To disobey a prohibition (of Allah -azwj ) is enough proof of one’s ignorance’.
