10. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn abu‘Abd Allah from certain individuals of his people from Muhammad ibn al-Muthanna al-Hazrami from Muhammad ibn Bahlul ibn Muslim al-‘Abdi from Abu ‘Abdillah  who has said the following: “The believers are like the two sides of a balance, as his belief increases in strength, his trial also increases in intensity.”
