11. The intelligent person is one who abstains from [the pleasures of] the lowly, perishing world and desires the sublime, everlasting, lofty Paradise.
11 اَلعاقِلُ مَنْ زَهِدَ في دُنْيا فانِيَة دَنِيَّة، ورَغِبَ في جَنَّة سَنِيَّة خالِدَة عالِيَة.
19. The intelligent person charges himself with performing that which is obligatory upon him and he does not charge himself with seeking that which is due to him.
20. The intelligent person is one who does not waste his [time and] energy in that which does not benefit him, and does not [strive to] acquire that which will not accompany him [after his death].
20 اَلعاقِلُ مَنْ لايُضيعُ لَهُ نَفَساً فيما لايَنْفَعُهُ، ولايَقْتَني ما لايَصْحَبُهُ.
