The Greatest Master Muhyiddin Ibn al-Arabi

Muhammad the Messenger, may Divine Peace be upon him, conveyed these words of Allah first revealed to His beloved Prophet Moses:

Nothing that brings you close to Me do I love more than your contentment with My Divine Decree. You can do nothing that will preserve your acts of goodness better than being content to concentrate on your own responsibility. O Moses, do not seek support from the people of the world, for this will alienate you from Me. Do not compromise with this world in any way that is contrary to true religion, for this will close the doors of My Mercy to you. Moses, say to those who are constantly turning to Me, "Rejoice, O believers." And say to those who humble themselves before Me, "O believers, continue always to abstain from evil and practice goodness."

* This hadith comes from the transmission of the noble companion Ibn 'Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him.
