But then... I returned to my original life, having fun and forgetting God. Finally I got sick for the third time.

As usual, I asked my family to take me to the center of the house as you see it now. Then, I asked them to get the Mushaf of Qur'an to read. However, my eyes could not see a single letter anymore. I realized that God was angry with me. Then I raised the manuscript above my head while asking, "O Allah, for the honor of this Mushaf, please set me free from this illness, O The Creator of the earth and sky!" Suddenly I heard a voice that said, "You repent when you are sick, and you return to sin when you are healed. How many times He has saved you from troubles and how many times He took your calamities when you were tested. Are you not afraid of death? You have perished in guilt."

Manshur bin Ammar said, "Indeed, by Allah, I came out of my friend's house with tears shedding, reflecting on the lesson I had just witnessed. And, I had not got to the door of my house, when I heard that he had died.
