Wisdom (480): The eye is a brace for the back. Sayyid Razi says that this speech is one of the strangest metaphors, as if you have likened the back to a jar and the eye to a brace, and if the brace is opened, what happens in the vessel. It cannot be stopped. It is clear that this is the statement of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). But some people have also narrated it from Amir al-Mu'minin (peace be upon him), so Mubard has mentioned it in his book "Al-Muqatzab" in the chapter "Al-Lafaz al-Haruf" and we have discussed this metaphor in our book "Majazat al-Aqtiir al-Nabiwiyah".
