HOLY INSTRUCTIONS OF .
UNITY

l. The gifts of the understanding are


the treasures of Allah; and
He appointed to every one his portion, in what masure seemeth good
Himself.
unto §. _
2. Hath He endowed thee with wisdom? Hath He enlightened thy
mind with the knowledge of truth? Communicate it to the ignorant, for
their instruction; communicate it to the wise, for thine own improvement.
3. True wisdom is less presuming than folly. The wise man
doubteth often, and changeth his mind; the fool is obstinate, and doubteth
not; he knoweth all things, but his own igmrance.
4. The pride of emptiness is an abomination; and to talk much, is
the foolishness of folly; nevertheless, it is the pert of wisdom to hear
with patience their impcrtinence, and to pity their absurdity. &#39;
5. Yet be not puffed up in
thine own conceit,neither boast
of superior
understanding; the clearest human knowledge is but blindness and folly.
6. The wise man feeletb his imperfections, and is humbled; he.
laboreth in vain for his own approbation but the fool P¢¢P¢1h&#39;in the
¢
i shadow stream of his own mind, and is pleased with the pebbles which
he seeth
at the bottom;he bringeththem up and showeththem aspearls
and with the applauseof his brethren delightctb himself.
7. He &#39;|. nT|i aSi:
attainments
:i.&#39;riinofthings that are of no
wot- t n: but
where it is ashame to be ignorant, there he hath no understanding. &#39;
8. Even in the path of wisdom, hetoileth after folly; and shame
and disappointment are the reward of his labor.
9. But the wise man cultivateshis mind with knowledge;the im-
provements of arts is his delight, and their utility to the public crowneth
with honor. &#39; &#39;
I
.1 Nevertheless, the
attainmentof
virtue he accountethas the isighut

HOLY INSTRUCTIONS FROM THE PROPHET
KNOW THYSELF
I. Weak and ignorantas thouart, O man, humbleas-thou oughtest
to be, O child of
the dust. wouldstthou raise thy thoughtsto in nite
wisdom? Wouldst thou see omnipotence displayed before thee? Cou-
ternplate thine
frame.
2. Fearfully and wonderfully art thou
made; praise thereforethy
Creator with awe, and rejoice before Him with reverence. -
3. Wherefore of all creatures art thou only erect, but that thou
shouldst behold His works? Wherefore art thou to behold, but that
thou mayest admire them?
Wherefore to admire thou mayest adore
their and thy ,Creator?
4. Wherefore is consciousness
reposed onthee alone,and wheuoe
is it derived to thee?
5. It is not
in esh to think; it is
not in bones to reason. The lion
knowcth not that worms shall eat him; the oxperceiveth not that he is
fed for slaughter.
6. Something is added
to thee, unlike to
what thou seest; some-
thing informs
thy clay, higher
than all is the objectof thy senses. Behold,
what is it? - »
7. The body remainethperfect after it ised; therefore, it is no
part of it; it is immaterial.therefore, itis etemal;it is free to act; there~
fore it accountable
is for its actions.
8. Knoweth the ass the use of food, because his teeth mow down
the herbage? Or standeththe crocodileerect, althoughhis backboneis
as straight as thine? --
9. Allah formed theeas He
fonned these; afterthem all wert thou
created; superiority and command were given thee over all. and in his
own breath did hecommunicate thee
to theprincipleof
knowledge.
10. Know thyself andthe prideofHis creation, the lime uniting
divinity andmatter; behold
apart of Allah Himself withinthee; remem-
ber thine own dignity; nor dare descend toevil or to manness.
11. Who planted terror in the tail of the serpent? Who clothed
the neck of the horse with thunder? Even He
who hath instructed thee
to crushthe oneunder thyfeet, andto tamethe otherto thy purpose,
