And you write that he has many volumes in his hands. For example, this saying is like the sayings of those who are exposed to every apparition, who have shown pride in their writings and authorships[266] and have protested against the king of names and attributes. If the book enriched the soul, every book on the earth during the appearance of the point of expression - our soul, apart from sacrifice - would enrich and deprive people. Nay, Allah, all the poor are at the mercy of His song, and all the ignorant are at the mercy of the knowledge, and all the parts are at the appearance of His power.
At this point, listen to Bayan Manzil's statement that he bequeathed to one of the letters of life. Qulah says: If you recite or record one verse of its essence[267], it will be more precious in the sight of Allah than if you record the whole statement. Because on that day, that one verse will save you, but it will not explain everything. Just like if someone recorded all the heavenly books and what was written under them during the time of the Messenger of God, there would be a judgment against him. But if a verse from the Quran was recorded, the ruling of faith would be in his favor. This is the essence of science and practice.
