(362) Calamities are rewarded greatly; and should God love a people, He will put them to trial.

(363) Calamity is in pledge of (man’s) words-should anybody berate someone for sucking a dog’s breast, he will himself do the same.

(364) Calamity is in pledge of (man’s) words-when someone says, “By God I will not do such a thing”, Satan abandons all his affairs and craves for making him commit sins.

(365) Call unto your Lord and believe that He will hear you, and know that God will not grant the prayers of those with negligent hearts.

(366) Calling to good weighs over silence, and silence weighs over calling to evil.

(367) Carnal desires will be forgiven, if not put to words or action.

(368) Carrying out heavenly-ordained punishments in this very world is better for men than forty days of raining.

(369) Casting an unlawful look (at a woman) is a poisoned arrow from Satan.

(370) Causing the world to decline is more tolerable to God than killing a Muslim.

(371) Caution does not block the way of fate.

(372) Caution is not useful against fate; rather, praying is of use against the befallen and non-befallen(events).

(373) Charity blocks seventy doors to evil.

(374) Charity puts sins out just as water extinguishes fire.

(375) Charity to the needy is only alms-giving, but to the kinds is alms-giving as well as strengthening kinship ties.

(376) Charity wards off hard deaths.

(377) Chastity and faith are interrelated. Should one of them vanish, the other will (definitely) perish.

   (378)   Chastity and faith are interrelated; none lasts without the other.

(379) Chastity and faith are two companions. They do not leave (their holder), but collectively.

(380) Chastity and taciturnity are two components of (one’s) faith, while scurrility and talkativeness are two elements of hypocrisy.

(381) Chastity comprises one’s whole faith.

(382) Chastity entails nothing but goodness.

(383) Chastity is (man’s) beauty, piety brings magnanimity, patience is the best means to ends, and awaiting divine solution is an act of worship.

(384) Chastity is a portion of faith.

(385) Chastity is goodness in its entirety.

(386) Chastity is women’s beauty.

   (387)   Chastity originates from faith, and faith leads (man) to Paradise. Scurrility roots from cruelty, and cruelty ends in Hell.

(388) Cheerfulness carries away one’s hatred.

(389) Choose appropriate containers for your sperms and keep distance with this black, for it is an undesirable color.

(390) Choose many friends, for your Lord is so modest and merciful that He hesitates to chastise His servant among his brothers (in faith) in the Day of Judgment.

(391) Choose suitable containers for your sperms, for women give birth to the like of their brothers and sisters.

(392) Choose suitable containers for your sperms, marry women (and give your daughters in marriage to men) of equal status to yours.

(393) Choose your neighbor before buying a house, and find a friend before taking a trip.

(394) Choose your neighbor before buying a house, your companion before selecting a way, and your provision before setting out on a trip.

(395) Choosing a bride from one’s own family is like growing grass in one’s own house.

(396) Clean your clothes, beautify your hair, brush your teeth and be all made up and tidy, for the children of Israel did not do so and their wives turned out to be adulterous.

(397) Clean your mouths by brushing.

(398) Clean yourself of urine, for it’s the cause of most punishments in the grave.

(399) Cleanliness has root in faith.

(400) Cleanness of food (lawfully-earned food) results in an increase of food, faith, and sustenance.

(401) Closer to you than your shoelaces is Paradise, and Hell is likewise.

(402) Color your white hair and stop looking like the Jews.

(404) Commit less vice, an easier death to face.

(407) Complete repentance is repenting (one’s) sins in the sense that when you commit a sin, you should ask for the Exalted God’s forgiveness and never commit that sin again.

(408) Connivance at the world is of patience and is much harder to do than to use swords in the way of God, the Powerful, the Great.

(409) Connive at a scholar’s slip and await him to the right direction to keep.

(410) Connive at the shortcomings of the merciful people; for by the God who rules over my soul, whenever one of them slips, a helping hand to him God gives.

(411) Connive at the sins of a generous man, for whenever he slips, God gives him a hand.

(412) Connive at what you are worried about its performance.

(413) Connive at whatever your heart does not accept.

(414) Constant contention (with others) suffices to make of you a sinner.

(415) Consult women concerning their daughters.

(416) Consultation is a wall for regret and safety against reproach.

(417) Contentment is an unfailing wealth.

(418) Contorting one's tongue keeps man from wrong.

(419) Control your tongue as well as your private parts.

(420) Control your tongue.

(421) Cover your sexual organs in the presence of all but your wives and bonds women. It was asked: “What about relatives?” The Holy Prophet replied: “They should try not to see each other’s sexual organs.” “What if one of us be naked at his (her) own privacy?”, He was asked. The Holy Prophet said: “One must be much more chaste to God than to people.”

(422) Cover your thighs, for they’re part of man’s privy parts.

   (423)   Creating Adam in Paradise, the Exalted God left him on his own for sometime. Then, Satan began to move around watching him, and finally finding him empty- minded, he came to understand that Adam was not a self-possessed creature.

(424) Creatures are God’s and lands are His too, and whoever cultivates a piece of barren land, has a right to own it.

(425) Cunning and stingy people will not be allowed to Paradise.

(426) Cure yourselves by cow milk. Verily, I hope that you can find in it divine recovery, for cows graze on all kinds of plants.

(427) Cure yourselves, for He who has let diseases befall you, has created their medicines too.

(428) Cure yourselves, O servants of the Exalted God! for he has created a (specific) medicine for any single kind of disease, save old age.

(429) Cursing the one who remains thankless to the blessing bestowed on him will be effective.
