That is to say, ownership is altogether His.

As for you, you are both His property, you are owned by Him, and you work in His property. This phrase announces the following joyful and healing news:

“O mankind! Do not suppose that you own yourself, for you have no control over any of the things that concern you; such a load would be heavy. Also, you are unable to protect yourself, to avoid disasters, or to do those things that you must. In which case, do not suffer pain and torment without reason, the ownership is another’s. The Owner is both All-Powerful and All-Merciful; rely on His power and do not cast aspersions on His mercy! Put grief behind you, be joyful! Discard your troubles and find serenity!” (Twentieth Letter, The Fourth Phrase)
