Our Salaf- Ash-shabee

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Abee Jaabiyah Al-Firaa’ee (rahimahullaah) narrated from Ash-shabee (rahimahullaah) who said: Indeed, we are not learnt men of understanding; rather we listen to hadeeth and transmit it. But the learnt men of understanding are those who act after knowing. [Siyar A’laam Nubulaa: 4/303]

Maalik Bin Maghool (rahimahullaah) said: It was said to Shabee (rahimahullaah): ” scholar”. He said: The scholar is the one who fears Allaah. [Hilyatul awliyaa: 4/311]

Abee Ishaaq (rahimahullaah) narrated from Ash-shabee (rahimahullaah) who said: ”None abandons something of the worldly life for the sake of Allaah, except that Allaah will grant him what is better for him in the afterlife. [Hilyatul Awliyaa: 4/312]
