بخش ۱۴ / Section 14

Original content

سهل عبدالله تستری - قدس سره - می گوید: که هر که بامداد کند و همت وی آن باشد که چه خورد، دست از وی بشوی.
هرکه خیزد بامداد از خواب و نبود در سرش

جز خیال خورد ازو آیین بیداری مجوی
وانکه شوید دست چون پای از سر بستر کشید

تا به خوان و سفره آرد دست، دست از وی بشوی

English translation

Sahl ibn Abdullah al-Tustari - may his soul be sanctified - says: Whoever rises at dawn and whose only concern is what he shall eat, wash your hands of him.

Whoever rises at dawn from sleep and has nothing in his head but the thought of eating - seek not from him the way of wakefulness. And he who washes his hand as soon as he draws his feet from the bedside, only to bring that hand to the table and the spread - wash your hands of him.
