Be Patient

ash-Shafi’i said:

Be patient upon the sourness and dryness of knowledge.
Because failure in knowledge is in turning away from it.

And he who doesn’t taste the sourness of knowledge for an hour.
Will swallow the humiliation of ignorance for his whole life.

And he who allows knowledge to pass him by in his youth.
Will awake to the funeral prayer being prayed for him…
