81 - 'Abdullāh narrated to us, Muḥammad ibn al-Ḥusayn narrated to me, Muḥammad ibn Mūsā ibn 'Āmir al-Azdī narrated to me, he said: I asked a monk leaning on an iron staff of his, saying: "What is the hardest thing that afflicts you in this place of yours from solitude?" He said: "There is no hardship in solitude; rather, solitude is the solace of those who seek [God]." (1)
