The reader: "Chapter: On establishing that following the Sunnah and the Qur'an is the path of salvation from the Fires
O you who seek your salvation on the Day of Reckoning *** from the Hellfire and the kindled Fires
Follow the Messenger of Allah in words and *** deeds, and do not deviate from the Qur'an.
And take the two authentic collections, which are *** the two pillars of religion and faith
And read them after purifying yourself from desire, *** partisanship, and the zeal of Satan
And make them the judge, and do not judge *** what is in them at all by the word of so-and-so
And make his statement like some of the statements of the *** Shaykhs, defending it at all times"
The Shaykh : Defending it
The reader: "And make his statement like some of the statements of the *** Shaykhs, defending it at all times
And defend his statement as you defend the one *** you followed without any proof
The status of the Messenger of Allah with you is unique, *** and his word to you is"
The Shaykh : And his word to you is clear, do not extend
The reader: "The status of the Messenger of Allah with you is unique, *** and his word to you is clarification
What do you see as a specific obligation upon you, *** if you have intellect and faith?
Present what they said to his words, *** or the reverse of that, for these are the two matters
It is the parting of the ways between our path *** and the path of the people of deviation and aggression
The status of the statements of the servants"
The Shaykh : Statements
The reader:
"The status of the statements of all the servants *** is nothing, and return to the beginning of faith
And make your sitting among the companions of Muhammad"
The Shaykh : ...
The reader: "And make your sitting among the companions of Muhammad *** and receive from them with excellence
And receive from them what they received *** from him of faith and knowledge
Is there not in this a message for a traveler *** who seeks the Divine and the Garden of the Living?
Were it not for the strife among this creation, *** division would never have been in the reckoning".
O you who seek your salvation on the Day of Reckoning *** from the Hellfire and the kindled Fires

And read them after purifying yourself from desire, *** partisanship, and the zeal of Satan
