Lost is the one who has a goal other than Allah.
ضاعَ مَنْ كانَ لَهُ مَقْصَدٌ غَيْرُ اللّهِ۔
—Ghurar al-Hikam
—غُرَرُ الحِکَم و دُرَرُ الکَلِم
One whose goal is evil, his place of arrival [in the Hereafter] will be bad.
مَنْ ساءَ مَقْصَدُهُ ساءَ مَوْرِدُهُ۔
—Ghurar al-Hikam
—غُرَرُ الحِکَم و دُرَرُ الکَلِم
