26. AWAKENING OF THE INTELLIGENT
When the sensibility of a person is perfect and complete. He loses his interest in this worldly life causing his body to become weak (saqm) and his concern [about the Hereafter] becomes strong, and his grief (huzn) becomes great.
This is because when the mind observes and heeds the consequences, it shall abstain from this worldly life and focus on what he noticed as he does not find joy in the instant [i.e. this life].
It is only those who heed not for the Hereafter who will enjoy this life because a perfect complete intelligent person is immune to this type of heedlessness (ghafla ).
This explains his inability’ to socialise with mankind as he finds them strangers to him as if they are like aliens!
