[Machine] From Wahb, it is narrated that a traveler, meaning a follower, came across a lion standing on the road, seeking prey. The follower started to inform the traveler, saying, "Lion, lion!" The traveler did not pay attention to him until they passed by the lion, and the lion moved away from the road. After they passed, the follower said to his elder, "Didn't I warn you about the lion?" The traveler replied, "Did you think that I fear anything other than Allah? If the lions' tongues were differents, I would prefer that Allah does not know that I fear anything other than Him."  

عَنْ وَهْبٍ إِنَّ سَائِحًا وَرِدْءًا لَهُ يَعْنِي تَابِعًا يَتْبَعُهُ مَرَّا بِأَسَدٍ وَهُوَ رَابِضٌ عَلَى الطَّرِيقِ يَلْتَمِسُ الْفَرِيسَ فَجَعَلَ الرِّدْءُ يُحَدِّثُ السَّائِحَ يَقُولُ الْأَسَدَ الْأَسَدَ وَجَعَلَ السَّائِحُ لَا يَلْتَفِتُ إِلَيْهِ حَتَّى مَرَّا بِالْأَسَدِ فَقَامَ الْأَسَدُ فَتَنَّحَى عَنِ الطَّرِيقِ فَلَمَّا جَاوَزَا قَالَ الرِّدْءُ لِكَبِيرِهِ أَلَمْ أَكُنْ أُحَذِّرُكَ الْأَسَدَ؟ قَالَ السَّائِحُ أَوَظَنَنْتَ أَنِّي أَخَافُ شَيْئًا دُونَ اللَّهِ ﷻ؟ لَئِنْ تَخْتَلِفُ الْأَسِنَّةُ فِيَّ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ يَعْلَمَ اللَّهُ ﷻ أَنِّي أَخَافُ شَيْئًا دُونَهُ
