He says: The argument of the hypocrites and the opposers leads to the Fire because they are transferred into metamorphosis, while Allah invites you to His forgiveness—which is Paradise—so that He may forgive you your sins.

[21] This is supported by what Muhammad ibn Hammam—may Allah Almighty sanctify him—narrated, tracing it to Muhammad ibn Sinan—peace be upon him—from al-Mufaddal ibn 'Umar—peace be upon him—who said: I said: "My Master, why have you left the people in disagreement and boasting [over one another]?" He said: "What business have they with boasting? By God, it is nothing but a change of name and an alteration of body." I said: "My Master, is it the same for the believers?" He said: "No. Indeed, the believer is a visitor who visits; the believers are not transferred into metamorphosis (al-Masukhiyya) nor into any of the abominations. They are the protégés (Awliya) of God forever."

And the words of the Almighty: {Allah is the ally of those who believe. He brings them out from darknesses into the light. And those who disbelieve—their allies are the Transgressors (al-Taghut); they take them out of the light into darknesses. Those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide eternally therein} 1 . Allah Almighty says: Allah is the ally of those who believe; He brings them out from the dark human bodies into the luminous bodies.
