Salaam everyone,

According to Aflaki, in his "The Whirling Ecstasy":--

"He who seeks worldly wealth cannot dispense with commerce and profit;

he who seeks that of future life cannot dispense with obedience and service;

he who seeks the Master cannot avoid tests and suffering".

And,

"Supplication takes away shame, pride drives out religion. A greedy man has

the nature of the devil. Where greed enters, there follows identification; where

identification is produced, an obstacle is created; where an obstacle is interposed,

work is interrupted; where interruption occurs, there follows infidelity and hell-fire".
