152 BAr a h i n-e-a h madiyya Lift your veils and see what is right before you; Your blindness does indeed cause me great sadness. You have turned your back on the Gracious and the Benefactor; O ignorant one, what manner of showing your gratitude is this! Infatuation with this wretched worldly abode, Will ultimately deprive you of your faith. To leave the threshold of God is a great infidelity; Do not give your heart to another for God is Jealous [of His Oneness]. You wilfully transgress against God; Alas! What calamity you bring upon yourself. O weak of faith! Whatever resides in your heart, Other than God, is an idol. Beware of such hidden idols, And free yourself from their clutches.
