Analysis of Ch 08 On Rules For Conduct In Life - Maxim 66

Sa di 1210 (Shiraz) – 1291 (Shiraz)



Whoever does not betake himself to the path of rectitude in consequence of the castigations of this world will fall under eternal punishment in the next. Allah the most high has said: And we will cause them to taste the nearer punishment of this world besides the more grievous punishment of the next.

Admonition is the address of superiors and then fetters.  
       If they give advice and thou listenest not, they put thee in fetters.
