"Do not learn knowledge for three reasons: to amaze and confound the foolish, to argue with the learned and to make people's faces turn towards you. Rather, seek what is with Allaah with your hearts and actions, since only that will remain and whatever is besides it will go."

Sa’eed Ibn Jubair reported: A man asked Ibn Abbas:

Righteous Fear vs. Sinful Delusion
It is reported that Al-Hasan Al-Basrî – Allâh have mercy on him – said:
The believer does the best deeds yet is most fearful [that his deeds will not be accepted]. If he were to spend a mountain of wealth [in charity], he would not feel sure [of the reward] until he sees it. The more righteous and pious he becomes, the more he fears. But the hypocrite (munâfiq) says, ‘There are so many people, I will be forgiven, no problem.’ So he does wrong and evil deeds, yet holds foolish wishes about Allâh.
Al-Dhahabî, Siyar A’lâm Al-Nubalâ` 4:586

We fight to have a beautiful clothes while he used to keep books in his one sleeve سبحان الله.

📌THE MOST IMPORTANT OF MATTERS IS THE PRAYER!
📝 Umar Ibn Al-Khattab(رضي الله عنه) would write to his governors during his caliphate and say:
“The most important of your affairs in my view is prayer; whoever prays regularly has protected his faith, but whoever neglects it, is bound to be more negligent in other issues of faith.”

🍃. It was narrated from Khaarijah, that his paternal uncle said: "We came from meeting with the Prophet(saw) and we came to an Arab tribe who said: 'Do you have any medicine?For we have with us an insane man in chains. They brought the insane man in his chains and I recited the Opening of the Book( *Surah Fatiha* ) over him for three days, morning and evening, gathering my saliva and then blowing, then he was healed.
They offered me payment and I said, No.
They said: Ask the Prophet (saw).
So I asked him and
He(saw) said:
" *Take it, for certainly there are some who earn by means of false Ruqyah but you have earned by means of true Ruqyah.*

The Difference between Contentment and Patience.
• Being patient involves restraining the self and preventing it from giving in to resentment, in spite of any suffering that it experiences, in the hope that the misfortune which afflicts it will come to an end - as well as restraining the limbs from behaving badly out of impatience.
• Being content, on the other hand, involves feeling at ease in accepting the Divine Decree, and being unconcerned with when any suffering will stop although it is being experienced. Being content alleviates any suffering by reason of the heart's immersion in the spirit of certainty and knowledge. If the contentment increases in its intensity, then it removes the experiencing of any suffering altogether.
It was narrated from Anas bin Malik that the Messenger of Allah (Salallahu 'alayhi wa Salam) said:
"The greatest reward comes with the greatest trial. When Allah loves a people He tests them. Whoever accepts that wins His pleasure but whoever is discontent with that earns His wrath."
[Sunan ibn Majah, 4031]

the mukaatib (a slave who has made a contract of manumission with his master) who wants to pay off his manumission,
and a man who gets married, seeking to remain chaste.”
