Translations:Yirmi Altıncı Mektup/255/en
The First:A respected person who was a most important, serious, and true student of mine used to write out the Words continually and disseminate them. But when a confused high official arrived and an incident occurred, he hid the Words he had written. He also temporarily gave up copying them out in the hope that he would not suffer any difficulty or hardship at the hands of the worldly and would be safe from their evil. But as a mark of his error of temporarily ceasing to serve the Qur’an, for a year he continuously suffered the calamity of having a thousand-lira fine hanging over him, which he had to pay.Then the moment he formed the intention to write out more copies and returned to his former position, he was cleared in the case, till finally, praise be to God, he was acquitted. He was poor and needy, and was saved from paying a thousand liras.
