﴿ لِمِثْلِ هَٰذَا فَلْيَعْمَلِ ٱلْعَٰمِلُونَ ﴾

“For the like of this, then, let them labour, those who labour [in God’s way]!”

For the like of this, then, let the doers do. If it is suitable to say to the faithful about the hope for joy, the bliss of paradise, and the vision of the serving-boys and youths, “For the like of this, then, let the doers do,” then it is more suitable that the recognizers have hope for seeing the majesty of the Unity and finding the realities of prox- imity and the good news of union, and that they sacrifice their eyes and heart and expend their lives and spirits for the sake of this good news. For the likes of Salmā a man would kill himself, and fixed in despair for Salmā, he would starve.
