Action without intention is like a journey without a compass;
بِلا without
'without' again — the same fused 'lacking,' now applied to the journey. The parallel is exact: as the action lacks intention, the journey lacks a compass, named next.
هو منهم بلا شك غير أنه في المسلمين يندس،
He is among them, without a doubt, yet he infiltrates the Muslims.
