But some of them, or most of them, were unable to prevent the people in his presence from speaking out of curiosity and what did not concern them, so this embarrassment also led them to asceticism among people, so they preferred isolation and cutting off from people by taking seclusions and closing their doors from people’s intent to reach them. Others began to travel in the mountains, the reefs, the coasts, and the depths of the valleys, so God spared them. From His name, the Most Merciful, with different aspects of familiarity with Him, He gave them that same breath of the Most Merciful, so they made them hear the remembrance of stones, the murmur of water, the blowing of the winds, the chirping of birds, and the praise of every nation of creatures, and their conversation with Him and their greetings of peace upon Him. So He comforted them from their loneliness and returned in a group and creation. They had no speech except in praise or veneration or mentioning divine blessings.
