ahmad-zuhd:713ʿAbdullāh from my father > Ismāʿīl > Ayyūb > Abū Qilābah

[Machine] Abu Dardaa, may Allah have mercy on him, said: "You do not truly understand all of understanding until you see different aspects of the Quran. And you do not truly understand all of understanding until you despise people for the sake of Allah, then you return to yourself and find that you despise yourself more than you despise others."  

الزهد لأحمد:٧١٣حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ قَالَ

قَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ إِنَّكَ لَا تَفْقَهُ كُلَّ الْفِقْهِ حَتَّى تَرَى لِلْقُرْآنِ وُجُوهًا وَإِنَّكَ لَا تَفْقَهُ كُلَّ الْفِقْهِ حَتَّى تَمْقُتَ النَّاسَ فِي جَنْبِ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ تَرْجِعَ إِلَى نَفْسِكَ فَتَكُونَ لَهَا أَشَدَّ مَقْتًا مِنْكَ لِلنَّاسِ
