Hakim bin Qays bin Asim al-Tamimi narrates that his father gave this counsel at the time of his death: "My sons, fear Allah, and make the eldest of you your chief, for when a people make their eldest their chief, they put him in place of their father; and when they make their youngest their chief, it is a disgrace to you among your peers. Hold fast to earning and caring for wealth, for it rouses generosity and through it one is freed from need of the base. Beware of asking people, for it is the last resort of a man's earning. When I die, do not wail over me, for no wailing was done over the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). And when I die, bury me in a land where Banu Bakr bin Wa'il will not know of my burial, for I used to raid them by night in the Days of Ignorance."
