My Dear Son,
Give it a chance to be known to you that rot of wellbeing, sitting back and closeness of death, have made me understand that I ought to give more thought to my future (next world) and to my kin; exhort them progressively and invest more energy in preparing them rationally to face this world.
I felt that my own children and my close ones have as much appropriate to use my encounters and learning, all the good and bad times of life, every one of the substances and every one of the truths about existence in this world and in the Hereafter, which are as much referred to me as others.
I chose, in this manner, to invest more energy over you and to set you up additional for your. This was neither narrow-mindedness nor self-regard nor any mental extravagance of giving endlessly suggestions, however it was the earnest craving of making you see the world as I discovered it, take a gander at the substances of lives as I took a gander at them, and make the best decision at the perfect time and ideal place as it ought to be done which made me record these appeals to you. You won't discover in them anything other than truth and substances.
My dear child! You are a piece of my body and soul and at whatever point I take a gander at you I feel as though I am taking a gander at myself. In the event that any disasters occurs for you, I feel as though it has happened to me. Your demise will make me feel as though it was my own passing. Your issues are to me like my own undertakings.
Consequently, I conferred these recommendations to paper. I need you to deal with them, to focus on them and to monitor them well. I may stay longer in your life or I may not, but rather I need these suggestions to stay with you generally.
My as a matter of first importance exhortation to you, my child, is to dread Allah. Be His dutiful worker. Keep His idea constantly new in your psyche. Be appended to and precisely protect the standards (Islam) which interface you with Him. Can whatever other association be more grounded, more strong and more enduring than this to order more prominent regard and thought or to supplant it?
Acknowledge great appeals and invigorate your psyche with them. Receive devotion and execute your exorbitant wishes with its offer assistance. Fabricate your character with the assistance of genuine confidence in religion and Allah. Oppress your inclination with the vision of death, make it see the mortality of life and of all that it holds dear, constrain it to understand the fact of mishaps and afflictions, the progressions of conditions and times and urge it to concentrate the lives of past individuals.
Influence it to see the destroyed urban areas, the flimsy castles, rotting signs and relics of fallen domains of past countries. At that point think over the exercises of those individuals, what they have all done when they were alive and were in power, what they accomplished, from where they began their vocations; where, when and how they were conveyed to an end, where they are presently; what have they really increased out of life and what was their commitments to the human welfare.
On the off chance that you deliberately contemplate over these issues, you will find that every one of those individuals has gone separate ways with the others and with all that he loved and cherished and he is presently in a singular residence, and unattended; and you likewise will resemble him.
Take care to give well to your future habitation. Try not to bargain away interminable gift for delights of this mortal and temporary world.
Try not to discuss things which you don't have a clue. Try not to theorize about and pass decisions on subjects about which you are not in a position to shape a feeling and are not called upon to do as such. Surrender the path where there is a plausibility of your wandering off-track.
At the point when there is peril on your meandering in the wild of numbness, plausibility of losing seeing the objective which you need to accomplish and of achieving the end went for, then it is ideal to surrender the journey than to propel confronting questionable threats and unexpected dangers.
Encourage individuals to do great and to live idealistically in light of the fact that you are fit to give such guidance. Give your words and deeds a chance to instruct the world lessons of how to keep away from fiendishness and horrible deeds. Attempt your best to avoid the individuals who enjoy indecencies and sins.
Battle, at whatever point required, to protect the reason for Allah. When you consider protecting the reason for Allah don't be worried about the possibility that that individuals will snicker at you, reprimand your activity or criticism you. Bravely and strongly help truth and equity. Bear quietly the sufferings and face boldly the impediments which come in your direction when you take after truth and when you attempt to maintain it. Stick to the reason for truth and equity wherever you discover it. Attempt to be knowledgeable with Islamic Jurisprudence and philosophy and gain an exhaustive information of the groups of this religion.
Build up the propensity for persistence against sufferings, catastrophes and afflictions. This goodness of persistence is one of the most noteworthy estimations of profound quality and respectability of character and it is the best propensity which one can create. Confide in Allah and let your mind look for His assurance in each catastrophe and enduring in light of the fact that you will in this way endow yourself and your issues to the Best Trustee and to the Mightiest Guardian.
Try not to look for help or security from anyone yet Allah. Save your petitions, your solicitations, your sales, your supplications, and your pleas to Him and only him on the grounds that to allow, to give, to give and to give, and to withhold, to deny, to won't, and to suspend, lies just in His Power. Solicit as much from His Blessings and look for as quite a bit of His Guidance as you can.
Attempt to comprehend my appeal, contemplate over them profoundly; don't trifle with them and don't move in the opposite direction of them in light of the fact that the best learning is what benefits the audience. The information which does not profit anyone is futile, not significant and not worth learning and recalling.

I abhorred the possibility that demise ought to overwhelm me before I disclose to all of you that I needed to tell or before my mental limits like my real quality are debilitated.
I pass on this to you for fear that unreasonable wishes, allurements and affectation ought to begin impacting you, or unfriendly changes of times and conditions ought to drag your name in the soil or I ought to abandon you like an untrained foal in light of the fact that a youthful and crisp personality resembles a virgin soil which permits things sown in it to develop verdantly and to hold up under lushly.
At that point, I have made utilization of early chances to instruct you and prepare you before your brain loses its freshness, before it gets solidified or distorted, before you begin confronting life caught off guard for the experience, and before you are compelled to utilize your choices and discretions without picking up preferences of cumulated conventions, gathered learning and encounters of others.
These expressions of exhortation and advice that I give you, will spare you from the stress of gaining information, gathering encounters and requesting counsel from others. Presently you can without much of a stretch make utilization of all the learning which men need to secure with awesome care, inconvenience and tolerance. Things which were avoided them and which just investigations, encounters and sufferings could convey to light are currently made effectively accessible to you through these urgings.
My dear child! In spite of the fact that the traverse of my life is not as that of some other individuals who have passed away before me yet I took extraordinary care to concentrate their lives, indefatigably I experienced their exercises, I mulled over their consultations and deeds, I concentrated their remaining parts, relics and vestiges, I contemplated over their lives so profoundly that I felt as though I have lived and worked with them from early times of history down to our circumstances and I realize what benefited them and what conveyed mischief to them.

Initially my craving was just to show you the Holy Book altogether, to make you comprehend its complexities, to give to you the entire information of His edicts and bans and not to abandon you helpless before the learning of other individuals.
In any case, subsequent to having prevailing in this errand I felt apprehensive that I may abandon you untrained and uneducated in the subjects which themselves are liable to so much disarray thus numerous inconsistencies. These are the subjects whose disarrays have been aggravated frustrated by egotistical wishes, twisted personalities, insidious lifestyles and corrupt methods of considering. In this way, I have noted down, in these lines, the fundamental standards of respectability, devotion, truth and equity.
You may feel them to be domineering and brutal yet my longing is to furnish you with this information as opposed to abandoning you unarmed to confront the world where there is each peril of misfortune and perdition.
