The sign of sincere disciple would be that he chooses what is not easy, what is little known, the life of solitude, the occupation of a dervish, and takes pride in these things! The Lord of Universe (PBUH) despite having attained highest exalted rank and degree, besought the Lord of Glory saying: “O God. grant us poverty in both life and death, and on the Day of Resurrection, raise us up in the condition of the poor.”
