World and its attractions
فَإِنَّهُ لَا بُدَّ لَكَ مِنْ نَصِيبِكَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَ أَنْتَ إِلَى نَصِيبِكَ مِنَ الْآخِرَةِ أَحْوَجُ فَإِنْ عَرَضَ لَكَ أَمْرَانِ أَحَدُهُمَا لِلْآخِرَةِ وَ الْآخَرُ لِلدُّنْيَا فَابْدَأْ بِأَمْرِ الْآخِرَةِ
(Ali Amir ul-Momineen-asws wrote to Mohammd Ibn Abu Bakr):
‘Surely, there is no escape for you from your share from ‘الدُّنْيَا’ the world and you are needier to your share in the Hereafter, so if two matters are presented to you, one of them for the Hereafter and the other for the world, then begin with the matter of the Hereafter. ….. And the greetings be to you and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings’.[1]
