He replied: That is not so, we have seen people stronger in faith (imdn) than they are, when they see a boy approach, fleeing like fugitives from a battlefield. Truly, the danger and the error is in abundance!' Section Eight: Accompanying Young Boys Accompanying young boys is one of Iblis's strongest ropes by which he captures the Siijls. Yusuf Ibn al-l:lusayn said: 'I have studied people's misfortunes, and learned from where they have been assailed; and I find the misfortune of the Siifis is to be in their association with the young, and politeness to women.' Section Nine: The Punishment which follows Gazing on the Beardless It is recorded that A bii 'Abdullah Ibn al-Jala' said: 'I was gazing on a handsome Christian boy, when Abii 'Abdullah al-Balkhi passed by, and asked me why I was standing. I said: 0 Uncle, do you not see this figure? How can it be punished with Hellfire?

I let go of the piece of wood, and floated on the water until I reached the shore. Abu Ya'qub al-Zayyat was asked a bout reliance, so he took a dirham that was in his pocket and gave it away, then he discussed reliance (al-tawakku and said: I was ashamed to reply to you while anything . . was m my possession.

Had these people known the true character of reliance (altawakku they would have been aware that there is no contradiction between it and means.
