Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"And indeed, a report has come that the trunk is of *** gold, narrated by al-Tirmidhi with clarification" The trunk of the tree is of gold.
The stems:
"Ibn Abbas said, and that stem *** is emerald, of the most beautiful colors"
If you were to visualize before you a tree whose trunk is gold and whose stem is emerald, you would imagine a wondrous scene that delights the soul, even though the gold there is not like the gold here, and the emerald is not like the emerald. Glory be to Allah! How do we lean toward this world, and how do we live in it, while we believe and testify to Allah that we believe in what Allah has promised the righteous? And yet, it is as if we are in a state of intoxication, as if we are in heedlessness. So we ask Allah to treat us with forgiveness.
