If you don't answer promptly, and if you do, you reveal yourself, not the words of polytheistic souls. Of course, reciting such supplications as mentioned, folding your hands and repeating them a hundred thousand times is preferred. Good words are spoken in remembrance and affirmation of God's command, not in contention and combat against Him. If, as mentioned in divine admonitions, the tongue is created to remember the Merciful, be sure not to bring him to the apparent words of Satan. The radiant tongue is a manifestation of truth, so do not make him aware of lying words! The treasury of expression and praise is mine, keep him busy with this and that, so that he may remain in his place, as the verse "inexhaustible tongue". What he says is able to continue as long as his existence is not cut off, except for what is preventing him from praising his Lord. And from him, a knowledgeable person perceives that divine knowledge has no end and will not end. Otherwise, the statement of the two worlds in him remains concealed, but it does not increase on his body. And meanings flow from him, and nothing is left of him. In this position, there are many supplications, and this servant has sufficed him briefly, perhaps your tongue is pure and pure from the illness of the soul and whims, and you speak in praise of God. Because today, the speaker is the one who stands up in praise of the truth, otherwise, he has been and will be a barker.
You would not write a clear answer, and if you did write it, you would mark it yourself, not the fabricated words of the polytheists' souls. Of course, such remembrance as demonstrated is a hundred thousand times more preferable to closing one's mouth. Speech is good in mentioning and affirming the matter of Allah, not in arguing and fighting with Him. As stated in the divine commandments: The tongue was created for the remembrance of the Merciful, beware of leaning it towards the words of the manifestations of Satan. The tongue is the source of the lights of truth, do not let it utter falsehood! The tongue is a treasury of praise for Me, do not engage it in the mention of this and that, for I have placed it in its position as a verse that does not diminish. As long as existence remains, speech will not be severed from it, unless a disease intervenes between it and the praise of its Lord. And from it, a perceptive knower will realize that divine knowledge has no end and will not have an end. The pearls of expression are hidden in it, but they do not add to its body. And the rivers of meanings flow from it, and not a particle of it is diminished. Indeed, in this position, there are many remembrances, and this servant is satisfied with this summary, so that perhaps the outer and inner tongue will be purified from the disease of the soul and passion and made to speak in the praise of Allah. Today, the one who speaks is the one who rises in the praise of the Truth, and if not, he has been and will be a mere cawing crow.
