“Anyone who has learned the Quran
and holds it lovingly in his heart
will 'value his nights when people are asleep,
his days when people are given to excess,
his grief when people are joyful,
his weeping when people laugh,
his silence when people chatter and
his humility when people are arrogant'.
In other words
every moment of life will be precious to him,
and he should therefore be 'gentle',
never harsh nor quarrelsome,
'nor one who makes a clamour in the market
nor one who is quick to anger'.”
― Ibn Mas'ud
