permitted by the Generous Host Who made it, and offer thanks. Act and behave within the bounds of His law. Then leave it without looking behind you, and go! Don’t interfere in it in a delirious or officious manner. Don’t busy yourself for nothing with things which part from you and do not concern you. Don’t attach yourself to passing things and drown!”

This Fifth Aspect discloses the secrets in the world’s inner face through apparent truths like these and greatly lightens the parting from it. Indeed, to the aware it makes parting desirable, and shows that there is a trace of mercy in everything and in every aspect of it. The Qur’an indicates these five aspects and its verses point to other particular aspects too.

Woe to the person who has no share of these five aspects!
