Having A Good Occupation

Rabash

We know that there is a custom,
applied all over the world,
that it is not good
for a highly skilled professional
to be among poorly skilled workers
and learn from their actions.

For example, when a cobbler
is among unskillful cobblers,
they let him understand
that it is not worthwhile
to make a good shoe,

But do it however it comes out,
and it is not worthwhile
to make a good and handsome shoe.

Or a tailor, if he is skillful,
when he is among unskillful tailors,
they let him understand that it is not worthwhile

to strain to make the clothing neat,
tidy, and fitting its owner.
Hence, he should be wary
of being in contact with them.

But when a builder is among tailors,
he cannot learn from their bad actions
because there is no connection between them.

However, within the same profession,
each one should watch himself
and be in contact
only with pure-hearted people.
