Crafts and professions

Now let us go back to discussion of crafts and professions. It isessential to establish a basic principle, which is that everyone who doessomething higher than his position will attain a higher status and riches,such as if a Faqeeh dreams that he is teaching or delivering a Khutbahor leading people in prayer or passing judgement; or if a person whowrites badly dreams that he is writing beautifully or that he is writingfor a leader after he used to write in the streets and so on. If he seeshimself doing something lower than his usual work, that is indicativeof poverty, trouble, lowering of status and moving from one situation toanother that is lower.
