Ghurar al-Hikam: 5378
God, the Merciful, seeks good for everything based on His wisdom and mercy, and there is no evil in His sanctuary, so all good thing is at His disposal, and I must show that His good reaches me, and if there is harm, man is the one who produces it.
Don't bother your head about someone who is the servant of God Almighty, he is of no harms for you and he is all goodness and benevolence, and the one who is not the servant of God Almighty but his own desires must not be expected any goodness and benevolence from.
