[Machine] Abdullah said, "Indeed, people have excelled in their words, but whoever aligns his words with his actions, that is the one who has achieved his share. And whoever goes against his words with his actions, then he is only reproaching himself."  

قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ إِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ أَحْسَنُوا الْقَوْلَ كُلُّهُمُ فَمَنْ وَافَقَ قَوْلُهُ فِعْلَهُ فَذَاكَ الَّذِي أَصَابَ حَظَّهُ وَمَنْ خَالَفَ قَوْلُهُ فِعْلَهُ فَإِنَّمَا يُوَبِّخُ نَفْسَهُ  

[Machine] Ibn Mas'ood used to say in his supplication while fearful, seeking refuge, pitiful, seeking forgiveness, desiring and fearing.  

أَنَّ ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي دُعَائِهِ خَائِفًا مُسْتَجِيرًا بَائِسًا مُسْتَغْفِرًا رَاغِبًا رَاهِبًا  

[Machine] Abdullah said, "The world is the home of those who have no home, and it is the wealth of those who have no wealth. And it is where those who have no intelligence gather."  

قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ الدُّنْيَا دَارُ مَنْ لَا دَارَ لَهُ وَمَالُ مَنْ لَا مَالَ لَهُ وَلَهَا يَجْمَعُ مَنْ لَا عَقْلَ لَهُ  

[Machine] That I am nothing.  

أَنْ لَا أَكُونَ شَيْئًا  

"The Messenger of Allah said: 'When Allah wills good for a person, He causes him to understand the religion.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 220)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنْ يُرِدِ اللَّهُ بِهِ خَيْرًا يُفَقِّهْهُ فِي الدِّينِ وَيُلْهِمْهُ رُشْدَهُ  

[Machine] He used to say, "Speak good to be known by it, and act upon it to become one of its people, and do not be hasty in scattering mischief."  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ قُولُوا الْخَيْرَ تُعْرَفُوا بِهِ وَاعْمَلُوا بِهِ تَكُونُوا مِنْ أَهْلِهِ وَلَا تَكُونُوا عَجِلًا مَذَايِعَ بِذْرًا  

[Machine] Abdullah in his sermon and indeed the one who is deprived is the one who fights against his own religion.  

عَبْدُ اللَّهِ فِي خُطْبَتِهِ وَإِنَّ الْمَحْرُوبَ مَنْ حُرِبَ دِينَهُ  

[Machine] You laugh at a funeral, I will never talk to you again.  

تَضْحَكُ فِي جِنَازَةٍ لَا أُكَلِّمُكَ أَبَدًا  

[Machine] He used to say, when he sat down, he meant to say, "You are in a limited time in the day and night, in short lives and preserved actions, and death comes suddenly. So whoever sows good will soon reap desire; and whoever sows evil will soon reap regret. And for every sower is like the one who sows. There is no delay in his fortune, nor can an eager person catch up with what is not destined for him. So whoever is given good, Allah has given it to him, and whoever is protected from evil, Allah has protected him. The pious are leaders, and the scholars are guides, and their assemblies are blessings."  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ إِذَا قَعَدَ يَعْنِي يَقُولُ إِنَّكُمْ فِي مَمَرِّ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ فِي آجَالٍ مُنْتَقَصَةٍ وَأَعْمَالٍ مَحْفُوظَةٍ وَالْمَوْتُ يَأْتِي بَغْتَةً فَمَنْ يَزْرَعْ خَيْرًا يُوشِكُ أَنْ يَحْصُدَ رَغْبَةً وَمَنْ زَرَعَ شَرًّا فَيُوشِكُ أَنْ يَحْصُدَ نَدَامَةً وَلِكُلِّ زَارِعٍ مِثْلُ الَّذِي زَرَعَ لَا يَسْبِقُ بَطِئٌ بِحَظِّهِ وَلَا يُدْرَكُ حَرِيصٌ مَا لَمْ يُقَدَّرْ لَهُ فَمَنْ أُعْطِيَ خَيْرًا فَاللَّهُ أَعْطَاهُ وَمَنْ وُقِيَ شَرًّا فَاللَّهُ وَقَاهُ الْمُتَّقُونَ سَادَةٌ وَالْفُقَهَاءُ قَادَةٌ وَمَجَالِسُهُمْ زِيَادَةٌ  

[Machine] Indeed, Allah calls upon His servant on the Day of Judgment and covers him with His hands. He asks him, "Do you recognize (Me)?" And he replies, "Yes, my Lord." Then Allah says, "Indeed, I have forgiven you (your sins)."  

إِنَّ اللَّهَ ﷻ لَيَدْعُو الْعَبْدَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَيَسْتُرُهُ بِيَدَيْهِ؛ يَقُولُ لَهُ أَتَعْرِفُ؟ فَيَقُولُ نَعَمْ يَا رَبِّ فَيَقُولُ إِنِّي قَدْ غَفَرْتُهَا لَكَ  

[Machine] Indeed, these hearts are vessels, so fill them with the Qur'an and do not occupy them with anything else.  

إِنَّ هَذِهِ الْقُلُوبَ أَوْعِيَةٌ فَاشْغِلُوهَا بِالْقُرْآنِ وَلَا تُشْغِلُوهَا بِغَيْرِهِ  

[Machine] It should be known about his night when people are sleeping, and about his day when people are breaking their fast, and about his sadness when people are rejoicing, and about his weeping when people are laughing, and about his silence when people are making mistakes, and about his humility when people are being arrogant. It is appropriate for the carrier of the Quran to be a weeper, sad, patient, and calm, and it is not appropriate for the carrier of the Quran to be dry, nor negligent, nor shouty, nor laughing, nor harsh.  

أَنْ يُعْرَفَ بِلَيْلِهِ إِذَا النَّاسُ نَائِمُونَ وَبِنَهَارِهِ إِذَا النَّاسُ مُفْطِرُونَ وبِحُزْنِهِ إِذَا النَّاسُ يَفْرَحُونَ وَبِبُكَائِهِ إِذَا النَّاسُ يَضْحَكُونَ وبِصَمْتِهِ إِذَا النَّاسُ يُخْطِئُونَ وَبِخُشُوعِهِ إِذَا النَّاسُ يَخْتَالُونَ وَيَنْبَغِي لِحَامِلِ الْقُرْآنِ أَنْ يَكُونَ بَاكِيًا مَحْزُونًا حَلِيمًا سَكِينًا وَلَا يَنْبَغِي لِحَامِلِ الْقُرْآنِ أَنْ يَكُونَ جَافِيًا وَلَا غَافِلًا وَلَا صَخَّابًا وَلَا ضَاحِكًا وَلَا حَدِيدًا  

[Machine] "That a day of punishment be eased upon them when they die happily."  

أَنْ تُخَفَّفَ عَنْهُمْ يَوْمًا مِنَ الْعَذَابِ لَمَاتُوا فَرَحًا  

[Machine] Abdullah said, "By the One in Whose hand is my soul, there is nothing on the surface of the earth more deserving of long imprisonment than the tongue."  

قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَالَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ مَا عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ شَيْءٌ أَحَقُّ لِطُولِ سِجْنٍ مِنْ لِسَانٍ  

[Machine] Abdullah said, "Bala' is entrusted with the word."  

قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ الْبَلَاءُ مُوَكَّلٌ بِالْقَوْلِ  

[Machine] Abdullah said, "Follow and do not innovate, for you have been sufficed from every misguided innovation."  

قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ اتَّبِعُوا وَلَا تَبْتَدِعُوا فَقَدْ كُفِيتُمْ كُلُّ بِدْعَةٍ ضَلَالَةٌ  

[Machine] Abdullah said to you with the first direction.  

قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالسَّمْتِ الْأَوَّلِ  

[Machine] To speak about everything he heard.  

أَنْ يُحَدِّثَ بِكُلِّ مَا سَمِعَ  

[Machine] Abdullah said, "No one is born a scholar, and knowledge is only acquired through learning."  

قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ إِنَّ أَحَدًا لَا يُوَلَدُ عَالِمًا وَإِنَّمَا الْعِلْمُ بِالتَّعَلُّمِ  

[Machine] Abdullah passed by the blacksmiths and noticed a newly made iron tool, so he cried.  

مَرَّ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ عَلَى الْحَدَّادِينَ فَبَصُرَ بَحَدِيدَةٍ قَدْ أُحْمِيَتْ فَبَكَى  

[Machine] "When there is every joy, there is also some sorrow, and a house filled with ink is also filled with lessons."  

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مَعَ كُلِّ فَرْحَةٍ تَرْحَةٌ وَمَا مُلِئَ بَيْتٌ حَبْرَةً إِلَّا مُلِئَ عِبْرَةً  

[Machine] To receive his discipline and indeed, the discipline of Allah is the Quran.  

أَنْ يُوتَى أَدَبُهُ وَإِنَّ أَدَبَ اللَّهِ الْقُرْآنُ  

[Machine] Abdullah said, "By the One in whose hand is the soul of Abdullah, there is not a soul on the Earth that knows the intensity of Allah's punishment, except that the eyes of that soul will become overcome with fear once it becomes aware of the punishment that has befallen it or if it managed to escape from it. And there is not a soul on the Earth that knows the extent of Allah's mercy, except that it will rejoice and hope to be enveloped in His mercy."  

قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بِيَدِهِ مَا فِي الْأَرْضِ مِنْ نَفْسٍ تَعْلَمُ جَنْبَ عَذَابِ اللَّهِ كَيْفَ شِدَّتُهُ تَرْقَى عَيْنُ تِلْكَ النَّفْسِ الَّتِي قَدْ عَلِمَتْ حَتَّى تَعْلَمَ أَصَابَهَا عَذَابُ اللَّهِ أَوْ نَجَتْ مِنْهُ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ نَفْسٌ تَعْلَمُ جَنْبَ رَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ كَيْفَ سِعَتُهَا إِلَّا اسْتَبْشَرَتْ وَرَجَتْ أَنْ تُصِيبَهَا الرَّحْمَةُ  

[Machine] Ibn Mas'ud and what surprises you is that you find the believer to be sound in heart and diseased in body, while you find the corrupt and the hypocrite to be sound in body and their hearts are diseased. By Allah, if your bodies were healthy and your hearts were diseased, you would be more insignificant to Allah than the beetle.  

ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ وَمَا تَعْجَبُونَ تَلْقَوْنَ الْمُؤْمِنَ أَصَحَّ شَيْءٍ قَلْبًا وَأَمْرَضَ شَيْءٍ جِسْمًا وَتَلْقَوْنَ الْفَاجِرَ وَالْمُنَافِقَ أَصَحَّ شَيْءٍ جِسْمًا وَأَمْرَضَهُ قَلْبًا وَاللَّهِ لَوْ صَحَّتْ أَجْسَامُكُمْ وَمَرِضَتْ قُلُوبُكُمْ لَكُنْتُمْ أَهْوَنَ عَلَى اللَّهِ مِنَ الْجُعْلَانِ  

[Machine] And he used to say, "Enough injustice has been done to the oppressed one, oh oppressed one."  

وَكَانَ يَقُولُ كَفَى بِالْمَعْكِ ظُلْمًا الْمَعْكُ الْمَطْلُ  

[Machine] Ibn Mas'ud said, "No one wakes up in this world except as a guest, with no possessions. The guest will eventually depart, and the possessions will be returned."  

قَالَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ مَا أَحَدٌ أَصْبَحَ فِي الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا وَهُوَ ضَيْفٌ وَمَا لَهُ عَارِيَةٌ وَالضَّيْفُ مُرْتَحِلٌ وَالْعَارِيَةُ مَرْدُودَةٌ  

[Machine] That he may inform us, so he said, "By Allah, none of you will be alone with his Lord, just as one of you is alone with the full moon on a clear night. Then the son of Adam will say, 'What has deceived you, O son of Adam? What have you answered the messengers, O son of Adam? What have you done with what you knew?'"  

أَنْ يُحَدِّثَنَا فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ مَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ إِلَّا سَيَخْلُو بِهِ رَبُّهُ كَمَا يَخْلُو أَحَدُكُمْ بِالْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ فَيَقُولُ ابْنَ آدَمَ مَاذَا غَرَّكَ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ؟ مَاذَا أَجَبْتَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ؟ مَاذَا عَمِلْتَ فِيمَا عَلِمْتَ
