بخش ۴۹ - ۴۹ ابوعبداللّه محمد بن اسماعیل المغربی، رضی اللّه عنه / Section 49 - 49 Abu Abdallah Muhammad ibn Isma'il al-Maghribi, May Allah Be Pleased with Him

Original content

و منهم: استاد متوکلان، و شیخ محققان، ابوعبدالله محمد بن اسماعیل المغربی، رضی الله عنه
از بزرگان و مقدمان وقت بود و اندر زمانهٔ خود مقبول. استاد و مراعی مریدان خود بود و ابراهیم خواص و ابراهیم شیبان هر دو مریدان وی بودند. و وی را کلام عالی است و براهین واضح. و اندر تجرید قدمی تمام داشت.

ازوی می آید که گفت: «ما رأیت أنصف من الدنیا، إن خدمتها خدمتک و إن ترکتها ترکتک.»
هرگز از دنیا منصف تر ندیدم؛ که تا وی را خدمت کنی تو را خدمت کند و چون بگذاریش بگذاردت؛ یعنی تا طلب وی کنی تو را طلب کند و چون ازوی اعراض کنی و خدمت خداوند تعالی بر دست گیری، از تو بگریزد و اندیشهٔ آن در دلت نیاویزد. پس هر که بصدق از دنیا اعراض کند از شر وی ایمن گردد واز آفت وی رسته شود، ان شاء الله تعالی.

English translation

And among them: the master of those who trust in God, and the shaykh of the verifiers, Abu Abdallah Muhammad ibn Isma'il al-Maghribi, may Allah be pleased with him. He was among the great ones and leaders of his time, and accepted in his era. He was a master and guardian of his disciples, and Ibrahim al-Khawwas and Ibrahim Shayban were both his disciples. His speech is lofty and his proofs are clear. And in tajrid (detachment) he held a complete standing. It is related from him that he said: 'I have not seen anything more just than the world: if you serve it, it serves you, and if you abandon it, it abandons you.' I have never seen anything more equitable than the world; for as long as you serve it, it serves you, and when you leave it, it leaves you; that is, as long as you seek it, it seeks you, and when you turn away from it and take up the service of God Most High, it flees from you and its thought no longer clings to your heart. So whoever truly turns away from the world becomes safe from its evil and is delivered from its affliction, God Most High willing.
