A mystical traveler encounters the rights of other people often in his daily routine, in his affairs, and in his mutual relations in both individual and social life. These affairs are related to marriage, children, parents, neighbors, friends, relatives, and all the people with whom he is in close and distant relations. Therefore, it is necessary for him to make sure that the rights of each person are respected and that no-one is trampled by him.
A holy traveler follows the path of justice. The main reason that indolence and lethargy appear in mystical traveling is the trampling of these rights, and without knowing they have done so, a mystical traveler cannot know the origin of laziness. Therefore, a mystical traveler avoids bothering others and trampling their rights even slightly. It is necessary that he makes his outward and inward correspond, and that he never transgresses the holy Islamic rules even slightly. Otherwise, he would be disgraced in the view of God, and he would not understand why until all his opportunities in life had ended.
