O son of Adam, remember My blessings upon you.
You will not be directed to the path except with the help of a guide.
You will not be directed to heaven except through knowledge.
You will not gather wealth except through toll.
You will not enter heaven except through patience in prayer and worship.
You will not be directed to heaven except through knowledge.
Seek My satisfaction by satisfying the needy ones.
For truly My satisfaction will never leave them, even for a blink of an eye.
So be eager to associate with wise men,
For My mercy will never leave them, even for a blink of an eye.
O Moses, hear what I say for what I say is the truth.
For those who show disdain towards the poor, I will indeed hold them to be as minute particles underneath the footsteps of all the people gathered on Judgment Day.
The person who oppresses a believer, I shall oppress him seventy folds.
The person who is humble towards a wise man or towards his parents I will elevate him in both worlds.
A person who humiliates the faithful is indeed fighting a battle with Me.
A person who favours believers for Me is being assisted by angles in both worlds;
in this world, hidden and in the other world, openly.
