Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The pleasant scent of the people of good deeds, O Shaykh, is it physical or spiritual?
The Shaykh:
It is psychological, and it is spiritual. It is psychological for the people of goodness and uprightness; it is a condition for them in their deeds and their states, and for others, such as the fasting person. The one seeking the obligatory does not perceive it. It is the apparent thing that people see with their eyes or hear with their ears. Yes. Yes.
