There carried on a devout man without anyone else, who invested the greater part of his energy in asking, fasting and applauding Allah. Practically the entirety of his waking hours were used in contemplation and commitments. He was exceptionally content with his otherworldly advancement. No insidious considerations rung a bell and no malicious enticements entered his heart.
One night, he imagined a somewhat aggravating dream. He saw that a businessperson in the town was far better than him in otherworldliness and that he should go to him to take in the fundamentals of genuine profound life.
Toward the beginning of the day, the devout man went looking for the retailer. He discovered him occupied with his clients, moving products and gathering cash with a lively face. He sat there in an edge of the shop and viewed the businessperson cautiously. No indications of any profound life whatsoever, he said to himself. His fantasy couldn't be valid. Be that as it may, at that point he saw the retailer vanish to supplicate his Salah. When he returned, he was caught up with managing cash matters once more.
The businessperson saw the devout man sitting in the corner and asked: "As Salamu Alaikum, OK like something, sibling?"
"Wa Alaikum As Salam. Gracious! No! No!" said the devout man. "I would prefer not to purchase anything, however I need to make an inquiry." He at that point related his fantasy.
"All things considered, that is exceptionally easy to clarify," said the retailer, "yet you should accomplish something for me before I answer your inquiry."
"I will do anything for you," answered the devout man.
"Okay! Take this saucer; there is some mercury in it. Go to the opposite end of the road and return quick inside thirty minutes. In the event that the mercury drops out of the saucer, you will hear nothing from me. There you go now."
The devout man took the saucer and began running. The mercury about wobbled out of the saucer. He spared it in the nick of time, and backed off. At that point he recollected that he needed to return inside 30 minutes, so he began strolling at a quick pace. Finally he returned puffing and gasping. "Here is your mercury, sheltered and sound," he told the businessperson. "Presently reveal to me the genuine elucidation of my fantasy."
The retailer took a gander at the devout man's tired condition and asked him: "Well, companion, how frequently did you recollect Allah while you were going from this finish of the road to the next?"
"Keep in mind Allah!" shouted the devout man. "I didn't recollect Him by any stretch of the imagination. I was so stressed over the mercury in the saucer."
"Yet, I do recall Him constantly," said the businessperson. "When I am doing my business, I am additionally conveying mercury in a saucer. I am reasonable, genuine and kind to my clients. I always remember Allah Ta'ala in my dealings with other men."
"Men whom neither exchange nor deal (business) redirects from the recognition of Allaah (with heart and tongue) nor from performing As‑Salaah (Iqaamat‑as‑Salaah) nor from giving the Zakaah. They fear a Day when hearts and eyes will be toppled (out of the ghastliness of the torment of the Day of Resurrection). That Allaah may compensate them as per the best of their deeds, and include significantly more for them out of His Grace. What's more, Allaah gives without measure to whom He wills" [Al Quran, Surah a Noor 24:37-38]
