  • But the true believer, from his confidence in that (Divine) Life, conducts his raid in a leisurely manner and with deliberation.
  • He hath no fear of missing his chance or of the enemy, for he recognises the King's dominion over the enemy.
  • He hath no fear of the other fellow-servants coming to jostle him and gain the advantage, 55
  • (For) he perceived the King's justice in restraining his followers so that none durst do violence to any one.
  • Consequently he does not hurry and is calm: he hath no fear of missing his (appointed) portion.
  • He hath much deliberation and patience and long-suffering; he is contented and unselfish and pure of heart,
  • For this deliberation is the ray of the Merciful (God), while that haste is from the impulse of the Devil,
  • Because the Devil frightens him (the greedy man) away from poverty and kills the beast of burden, patience, by stabbing. 60
  • Hear from the Qur’án that the Devil in menace is threatening thee with hard poverty,
  • That in haste thou mayst eat foul things and take foul things, (having in thee) no generosity, no deliberation, no merit acquired by good works.
