خلاصه ماشینی:

This too is from the influence of decree and destiny; You see the well and cannot take heed (3/1461-1646) (3/1461-1646) In other verses, he emphasizes this same meaning: We are the donkeys of fortune in the race, Drunk and self-oblivious under the burdens of Truth; Our general and our specific is His command, Our souls are running, seeking Him (6/2139-2141) (6/2139-2141) Therefore, since resisting predestination and decree leads to destruction and loss, humans have been warned against it: In being cautious, there is turbulence and evil; Go and trust in Him, trust is better; Do not clash with this sharp and fierce predestination, Lest predestination also clashes with you One must be dead before the decree of Truth, Lest a wound comes from the Lord of the Dawn (1/909-911) And it has also been stated in other verses: Whoever launches a raid against predestination, Will fall headlong, consuming his own blood; When the earth makes an enemy of the sky, The head becomes salt and is bound by death; The pattern clashes with the Painter, And he tears out his own mustache and beard (3/935-937) Therefore, the wisdom of the wise in the scale of predestination and decree is like absolute ignorance: O you whose intellect rivals Mercury, Predestination makes both intellect and the intelligent foolish; There are hundreds of enchantments of predestination, He said: «اذا جاء القضا ضاق الفضا» [Quran, Baqarah, 179] This predestination was a cloud covering the sun, Making lions and dragons become like mice (3/3880-3882) Given such a belief, whatever arises from humans, whether according to their will or contrary to it, is the realization of Divine decree.
