“یک سال والی شام نوشته بود که زیت اندک است اگر فرمان باشد مسجد را زیت حار بدهیم، و آن روغن ترب و شلغم باشد. در جواب گفتند تو فرمانبری نه وزیری. چیزی که به خانه خدا تعلق داشته باشد در آنجا تغییر و تبدیل جایز نیست.”

One year, the governor of Syria had written that there was little olive oil. Should there be the command, he would give the mosques ḥārr oil, which is radish and turnip oil. In the reply, it was said: "You are a subject, not the grand vizier. Something that has to do with the House of God cannot be changed nor altered."
