ahmad-zuhd:627ʿAbdullāh > Bī > Wakīʿ > Sufyān > Ismāʿīl b. Umayyah

[Machine] 'Omar, may Allah have mercy on him, said: "Indeed, in solitude there is relief from the harm of others."  

الزهد لأحمد:٦٢٧حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا أبِي حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ قَالَ

قَالَ عُمَرُ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ «إِنَّ فِي الْعُزْلَةِ الرَّاحَةَ مِنْ خِلَالِي السُّوءِ»
