The third sign is that there is nothing closer to him than God, Mighty and Majestic is He, as [is indicated by] the saying of ʿĀmir b. ʿAbd al-Qays, �I never regarded anything without seeing God as closer to it than myself.� His words, Exalted is He:

So it is that Muslim b. Yasār said on the death of his son, �O my son, my grief for you has distracted me from grieving over [my loss of] you. O God, I have transferred to him the reward [which You have granted] me concerning him.� The second sign is that the happiness of this world becomes insignificant in his eyes, even though it gives him ease. The third sign is that there is nothing closer to him than God, Mighty and Majestic is He, as [is indicated by] the saying of ʿĀmir b. ʿAbd al-Qays, �I never regarded anything without seeing God as closer to it than myself.� His words, Exalted is He:

for anyone who feared the meeting with his Lord and restrained himself from base desires
Sahl al-Tustari
