Ch 02 The Morals Of Dervishes Story 13

I saw a holy man on the seashore who had been wounded by a tiger. No medicine could relieve his pain; he suffered much but he nevertheless constantly thanked God the most high, saying: `Praise be to Allah that I have fallen into a calamity and not into sin.?

 If that beloved Friend decrees me to be slain 
 I shall not say that moment that I grieve for life 
 Or say: What fault has thy slave committed? 
 My grief will be for having offended thee.
