بخش ۲۴ / Section 24

Original content

شقیق بلخی - قدس الله تعالی سره - گفته است: بپرهیز از صحبت توانگر زیرا که چون دلت بدو پیوند گرفت و به داده وی خرسند شدی، پروردگاری گرفتی غیر خدای تعالی.
گر درآید توانگری با تو

بهر روزی بدو مکن پیوند
ممسکی را کفیل خود مشمار

مدبری را خدای خود مپسند

English translation

Shaqiq of Balkh - may God Most High sanctify his soul - said: Beware of the company of the wealthy, for when your heart becomes bound to him and you grow content with what he gives, you have taken a lord other than God Most High.

If a wealthy man comes to you, do not bind yourself to him for the sake of your daily bread. Do not reckon a miser as your surety, and do not accept a base wretch as your god.
