The Shaykh :"And thus he knows from the reality of his own self *** and its attributes through the reality of gnosis"
And this task is that a person knows himself, knows its reality, and knows that it is treacherous and deceitful, except for whom Allah protects. Therefore he says:

Allah the Mighty and Majestic says:[Fatir 35:15] And he knows what is in it of deficiency, for man is deficient unless Allah grants him perfection [An-Nahl 16:78]. Yes
