Imaam Ibnul Qayyim
One
who is cautious resembles one
who travels with his wealth & riding animal while being mindful of thieves.
He resembles one who has prepared himself with armor & weapons to meet his
enemy.
As for
suspicion, it is a heart filled with bad thoughts of
others, & backbiting, slander, & hatred is the result. One who is
cautious intermingles with people while protecting himself, though one who is
suspicious harms them while avoiding them. The former advises them while the
latter despises them.
