“قالت ويدها ترتجف في يده:
- إني خائفة.
قال وهو يمشي الهوينا:
- أنا أعيش في هذا الخوف.. إنه الخوف الجميل.. الخوف من أن يظهر المكتوم.. فإذا به علي غير ما نرضي وعلي غير ما نحب وهو خوف يدفع كلا منا إلي إحسان العمل.. وهو خوف لا يوجد إلا عند الأتقياء.. لأنه خوف يحمي أصحابه من الغرور.. ألم يقل أبو بكر.. مازلت أبيت علي الخوف وأصحو علي الخوف حتي لو رأيت إحدي قدمي تدخل الجنة فإني أظل خائفا حتي أري الثانية تدخل.. فلا يامن مكر الله إلا القوم الضالون.
- ولماذا يمكر بنا الله؟
- مكر الله ليس كمكرنا.. فنحن نمكر لنخفي الحقيقة أما الله فيمكر ليظهرها وهو يمكر بالمدعي حتي يظهره علي حقيقة نفسه فهو خير الماكرين.
- ألا توجد راحة؟
- ليس دون المنتهي راحة.
- ومتي نبلغ المنتهي..
- عنده.. أليس هو القائل
