and worries, and close, and the disliked and hated things, and the disliked evils. And the multiplication of livelihoods, meaning the livelihood that God Almighty provides to the living being, and if it is not enough for him, he is nourished by it. And it is said that borrowed livelihood is a measure of benefit from it. So the benefit from livelihood is to strive for it, and its strength is to benefit from it. And the hadith states that livelihood is abundant through the means that God Almighty has decreed. And many sayings and actions have come down in this regard, and Al-Hafiz Jalal al-Din has collected them in his book "Usul al-Rizq" (The Roots of Livelihood) and "Fath al-Hawaij" (The Fulfillment of Needs). And it is said that the prayer upon the Prophet, peace be upon him, is a means of gathering all that is sought and desired by the permission of God Almighty, His creation, His bestowal, His grace, and His remembrance. And it is mentioned that some of His names are derived from His actions and states. This indicates the relationship between God Almighty and His creation. And in this, there is what is pleasing and what is pleasing to the Almighty. And the intention of "some" here is "some of His names." And it is narrated from Abu Abdullah, may God have mercy on him, that he said: I saw in a dream that I was writing the Musnad of Abu Hanifa. And I saw a group of people, including Ibn Sab', Ibn Bishkuwal, Jabir, Ibn Wada'ah, and Ibn al-Fahham. And Abu Abdullah said: I was a scribe, and I saw in a dream that I said to the Prophet, peace be upon him: What has God done with you? He said: He has forgiven me. I said: How? He said: When I wrote the name of the Prophet, peace be upon him, I would write "May God bless him and grant him peace." And it is narrated from 'Arraq that he said: I saw a righteous man after his death in a dream. I said to him: What has God done with you? He said: He has forgiven me. I said: How? He said: When the name of the Prophet, peace be upon him, was mentioned, I would write "May God bless him and grant him peace." And the reward for that was forgiveness. And similar to this is what Al-Hafiz narrated from Abu Sa'id that he said: I saw my friend Abu al-Hasan al-Madini in a dream, and he was wearing green clothes. I said to him: Are you not my companion who used to seek hadith? He said: Yes. I said: This is what I see. He said: I used to write hadith with you, and when a hadith was mentioned that included the name of the Prophet, peace be upon him, I would write "May God bless him and grant him peace." And this is what you see. And Ibn Wada'ah narrated this story as well. And it is narrated from Abu al-Walid, Jabir, Ibn Wada'ah, and Ibn Mandil, from Ibn Sa' and Ibn Bishkuwal, that they saw in a dream and said: What has God done with you? He said: He has forgiven me. I said: How? He said: I used to write prayers upon the Prophet, peace be upon him, in every hadith. And it is narrated from Abu Salih 'Abdullah bin Muhammad al-Sufi that he saw some of his companions in a dream and said: What has God done with you? He said: He has forgiven me. And it was said to him: For what reason? He said: I used to pray upon the Messenger of God, peace be upon him, in my writings. And worries, and the abundance of livelihoods, and the fulfillment of needs, and from some of the scholars.
