Remaining with the Beauty (al-Husn) is more worthy, both in the Hereafter and in this world; and the nobility of Beauty shall become manifest to you upon vision within the Paradise of Desire (Jannat al-Munya).

One of them recited in verse:

O you who disparage the forms that appeared to Him

For a time—how wondrous is the beauty of their manifestation!

Had those forms remained hidden, his weeping would have endured

And his lamentation would have prolonged out of longing for the beauty of their unveiling.

He became accustomed to the manifestation and said: 'These are [mere] dense objects

Yet their very density is but the condensation of their own Light."
