Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 11593a
✧ Alif with Qaf
"القَلُوبُ أَرْبَعَةٌ فَقَلبٌ أَجْوَدُ، فيه مثلُ السِّراج يزْهِرِ، وقَلبٌ أَغَلفُ مَربوطٌ على غِلافِه، وقَلبٌ مَنكُوسٌ، وقَلبٌ مصَفَّحٌ، فأمَّا القَلب الأجودْ فقلب المؤمن سراجه فيه نوره، وأما القلب الأغلف، فَقَلبُ الكِافِرِ، وأَمَا القَلبُ المنكُوسُ فقلب المنافق عرف ثم أنكر، وأما القلب المصفّح فَقَلبٌ فِيهِ إيمانُ ونِفَاقٌ، ومَثلُ الإِيمان فيهِ كَمثَلَ البقلة يَمُدُّهَا الماءُ الطيبُ، ومثل النِّفَاق كَمثل القُرْحَة يمدُّها القَيحُ والدمُ، فأَى المَدَّتين غَلَبتْ على الأُخرى غَلَبْتْ عَلَيهِ".

"The hearts are four: a best heart, in which there is a lamp shining; a wrapped heart, bound over its covering; an inverted heart; and a polished heart. As for the best heart, it is the heart of the believer, its lamp is in it, its light. As for the wrapped heart, it is the heart of the disbeliever. As for the inverted heart, it is the heart of the hypocrite, who recognized and then denied. As for the polished heart, it is a heart in which there is both faith and hypocrisy; the likeness of faith in it is like a plant that good water nourishes, and the likeness of hypocrisy in it is like a sore that pus and blood feed. Whichever of the two grows stronger over the other, it overcomes it."
