The sane person should arrange his opponents in ranks: so he looks at the most enmity and the greatest of them is dangerous, so he presents it in caution and confrontation, then to those without him harm, so he treats both with what is appropriate for his ability.
From the full mind, the perfection of wisdom, and the correct measure, that one arranges his enemies as his friends arrange; Because friends are not the same: this is a secret and bad friend, who is fixed with you in prosperity and intensity, and that is a secret friend without harm, you only see him in the days of ease, and a third does not exceed the boundaries of the champion, so he does not sing at the paintings, and does not consult at adversity.
Likewise, the opponents are not in one rank: some of them lie in wait for the circles, they would like to eradicate you from the roots, and I am upset with the existence of detection.
And some of them do not want to eliminate you altogether, but rather seek to break you, stop your path, and murder you from reaching your goal.
And some of them are weakening and restricting you, neither your eradication nor your destruction, nor prevented you from reaching, but just delaying your arrival. So all of them put in one basket, and dealing with them with the same approach, a clear mistake, and a great imbalance.
The seriousness of this imbalance in the Muslim row doubles, when consciousness is absent from this fact; You find one – or find his brother – has lined up alongside his enemy and the enemy of his brother, not for anything except because the enmity between him and his brother has amplified very much in himself until he blinded his eyesight and insight, so he neglected to download the rule of the law in this position, and to see the total scene, and the realization of the balance of power, the requirements of interest, and the necessities that require priorities.
Hence, the sane person had to arrange his opponents in ranks: so he looks at the most enmity and the greatest of them is dangerous, so he presents it in caution and confrontation, then to those without him harm, so he treats both with what is appropriate for his ability.
And take into account several criteria in that: the intensity of enmity and its weakness, the amount of harm and its capacity, the distance from the proximity or the proximity of it, the intensity of strength or its weakness, then its condition is: a power or weakness, a unit or a division, especially in the case that the enemies are demanding it from every horizon, and the face and directed.
Rather, even in the event of strength and power, the duty of justice remains standing and does not fall; One does not settle for all opponents, nor does he descend them with a single status, and he does not use with them a single method of confrontation, erosion, or in perpetration and approximation. Rather, it gives everyone who has his right, and puts each opponent in which its position, guided by the justice that the heavens and the earth has done.
We ask God to guide us all, whether the way, to bless us with wisdom, good insight, and to avoid temptations what appeared from it and what is belly.
He is the guide
