It is reported that a man once wrote to
Ibn ʿUmar (may Allāh be pleased with them):
"Please write down all knowledge for me. Ibn ʿUmar replied: 'Knowledge
is vast, but if you can meet Allāh having kept your back light of the burden of
people’s blood, your stomach void of people’s wealth and having kept your
tongue from [disparaging] their honour, then do so."'
Al-Dhahabī, Siyar ʾAʿlām Al-Nubalāʾ 3:222
