The example of those who adhere to the limits of Allah Almighty and those who violate them is like those who drew lots in a ship, so some of them received a place in its bottom portion and others in its upper portion. Thus, those at the bottom had to go to those at the top for water. This troubled those at the bottom, so a person from below took an axe and began to make a hole in the lower part of the ship. Those from the top came to him and asked, “What is the matter with you?” He replied, “You were made to face difficulty on my account, and I cannot survive without water.” Thus, if they take hold of his hand, they will save him and themselves, but if they leave him, they will destroy him and themselves.
