“Brother! Consult with these matters, then withdraw your nafs by the attribute of being an inspector. Denude the clothes of the imaginings of place and wahms of time, be bare; then from the shore of this age enter the boundless ocean of time and emerge on the island of the Era of Bliss. What will strike and manifest your eye before all else is a single person who bereft of a helper and a sovereign, challenging the whole world. He has taken on his shoulders a haqiqah greater than the globe and a Sharî’ah of his which guarantees the happiness of all humankind; which as the sum and substance of all the Ilahî ‘ilms and branches of true sciences, expands and yields fruits in both ‘âlam in conjunction with the unfolding of the human potentialities, and establishes such justice that it organises humankind’s circumstances as though men were members of a single council and the people of the same era. If you were to ask that the laws of Sharî’ah: whence you had come? And where you will go? They would answer you that they had come from pre-eternal Kalâm, and that, we will go to eternity by accompanying humankind for its salâmât on the road to eternity. Even if their outward links with us are severed after departure from this transient world, our ma’nawî being will always be the guide of humankind and sustenance of their rûh.” Rational Arguments (146)

 

Thus, o wretched man subjected to the wiles of shaytan! If you want the salâmat of the life of religion, personal and social life, and if you want sound thought, istiqâmah in view and the salâmat of heart, weigh up your actions and thoughts on the scales of the muhkamât of the Qur'an and the balance of the Sunnah as-Saniyyah. Always take the Qur'an and the Sunnah as-Saniyyah as your guide. Say: اَعُوذُ بِاللّٰهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ 1  and take refuge with Janâb-i Haqq!
