Extract from a letter from Frithjof Schuon dated 3 February 1955.

I must always repeat to the fuqarā' that if some expression of destiny upsets them they should submit to it in their personal prayers and even thank God for the trial, only then asking Him to free them from it. Likewise, when a person bothers us and we even come to criticize him, which is inevitable in some cases, we must reestablish equilibrium by praying for him, provided the person is not a kāfir.
