He embellishes speech for his followers and makes the impossible seem permissible to their minds. This class is called "The Misleader" (Muḍill).

The Fifth Class: The Islam of the one who submitted but halted at his own good opinion (ḥusn al-ẓann) of himself—even if Reason (al- ‘Aql) deems it base. He believed he reached the perfection of the Gnosis required of him and grew too proud to seek increase. He was veiled from seeking the sciences in their outward forms, and by their metaphors, he was veiled from seeking their Realities (Ḥaqā’iqihā). He donned the name of "Knowledge" as a cloak while remaining ignorant of its meaning; he wore the garment of "Asceticism" (Zuhd) without knowing what lies beyond it. This class is called "The Severed" (Munbatt).
