"Abū Hāzim said, 'No servant (of Allāh) betters what is between him and other servants, and he does not spoil what is between him and Allāh, except that Allāh spoils what is between him and the servants of Allāh. Working for the sake of one face is easier than working for the sake of all faces. For if you work for the sake of that face (the face of Allāh), all faces will turn to you but if you spoil it, all faces will detest you.'"
