Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Among Bedouins, villagers, and people of the wilderness, qualities such as roughness and uncouthness are found; their capacity to accept the truth is less. In contrast, urban people possess more refinement and gentleness, and the soil of their hearts and minds is more fertile. A person who sets out in search of hunting, his heart is never truly content; greed, avarice, and preoccupation continue to increase, and he goes farther and farther afield. He becomes heedless of the performance of prayer (salah) and the fulfillment of other rights.
