Certainly there was in the Prophet of Allah all that would apprise you of the evils of this
world and its defects, namely that he remained hungry along with his chief companions, and
despite his great nearness the allurements of the world remained remote from him. Now, one
should see with one's intelligence whether Allah honoured Muhammad (the peace and
blessings of Allah be upon him and his descendants) as a result of this or disgraced him. If he
says that Allah disgraced him, he certainly lies and perpetrates a great untruth.
