The killing of that man at the hands of the divine physician was done neither out of hope nor out of fear.

He was pure of lust, greed, and passion; what he did was good, though it appeared evil to the eye.

If Khidr broke the boat in the sea, within that breaking lies a hundred rightnesses.

Even Moses's understanding, despite all his spiritual light and excellence, remained veiled from grasping that secret; so do not attempt to fly without wings.
