[6] Gentleness of our pious predecessors

In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

It has been transmitted from Habeeb ibn Hujr al-Qaysi, may Allah have mercy upon him, who said: “It used to be said: “How excellent Iman is when adorned with knowledge! How excellent knowledge is when adorned with action! How excellent a deed is when adorned with gentleness!”

Reported Ibn Al-Mubaarak, may Allah have mercy upon him, in Az-Zuhd 1336
