And truthfulness and sincerity are the two pillars of that tawhid (the oneness of Allah), like the two pillars of a building (the meaning of truthfulness in the poet's words is earnestness in the pursuit, and the meaning of sincerity is the oneness of the intended goal)

The Shaykh :"And truthfulness and sincerity are the two pillars of that tawhid (the oneness of Allah), like the two pillars of a building".
Truthfulness will be explained in the author's words; its meaning is earnestness in the pursuit, because anyone who is truthful in their intention must necessarily be earnest in their pursuit. For example, if I said to someone, "I want to travel to Makkah," and I was truthful in my desire to travel to Makkah, what would I do? I would strive to the best of my ability to reach Makkah. Is that not so? Therefore, truthfulness means earnestness in the pursuit to achieve the intended goal. And whoever says, "I am truthful," but has no earnestness, is a liar. As for sincerity, it is tawhid (the oneness of Allah): you make the intended goal one and do not intend anything other than it. Yes.
