قَطَعَ السَّائِرِينَ لَهُ وَالْوَاصِلِينَ اِلَيْهِ عَنْ رُؤْيَةِ أَعْمَالِهِمْ وَشُهُودِ أَحْوَالِهِمْ أَمَّا السَّائِرُونَ فَلِاَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَتَحَقَّقُوا الصِّدْقَ مَعَ اللّٰهِ فِيهَا وَأَمَّا الْوَاصِلُونَ فَلِاَنَّهُ غَيَّبَهُمْ بِشُهُودِهِ عَنْهَا

He has cut off those journeying to Him and those who have arrived at Him from seeing their works and witnessing their states. As for the journeyers, it is because they have not yet made sincerity with God in them a realized truth; as for those who have arrived, it is because He has made them absent from them through witnessing Him.

Ibn ʿAbbād

لقد أسبغ الله نعمته على الفريقين حيث فعل معهم ذلك لانه أبقاهم معه ولم يدعهم لسواه فالواصلون فعل ذلك بهم طوعا منهم والسالكون فعل ذلك بهم كرها

God has indeed lavished His grace upon both groups in doing this with them, for He kept them with Himself and did not leave them to what is other than Him. With those who have arrived, He did this willingly on their part; with the wayfarers (*al-sālikūn*), He did this against their will.
