On being asked why he did so, he replied, "By drinking this liquid
food, instead of chewing and swallowing bread, I can save enough time
to recite fifty Ayaat of the Holy Quran." Once a visitor came to see
him and told him that the beam of his room had cracked. He said, "I
have not looked up at the ceiling of this room for the last twenty
years." Not only did these pious beings avoid indulging in idle talks,
but also abstained from idle gazing. Muhammad bin Abdul Aziz
Rahmatullah alaihe says that he remained with Sheikh Ahmad ibne Razeen
Rahmatullah alaihe from morning till Asr and saw that the Sheikh never
looked this way or that. Someone asked him about it and he said,"Allah
Ta'ala has granted us the gift of eyes in orderthat we may take a
lessonfrom seeing His Majesty and Grandeur, manifested in all created
things. He who cannot do so is not making proper use of his eyes."
May Allah give us the ability to make wise use of our bounties.
