ahmad-zuhd:1551ʿAbdullāh from my father > Rawḥ > ʿAwn > al-Ḥasan

[Machine] "He used to say, 'Accuse your own opinions and desires in matters of religion, and advise the Book of Allah upon yourselves and your religion.'"  

الزهد لأحمد:١٥٥١حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا عَوْنٌ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ «اتَّهِمُوا رَأْيَكُمْ وَأَهْوَاءَكُمْ عَلَى دِينِ اللَّهِ وَانْتَصِحُوا كِتَابَ اللَّهِ عَلَى أَنْفُسِكُمْ وَدِينِكُمْ»
