Hazrat Bakr bin Ma’az (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that the daughter of Rabi’ bin Khuthaym came while his companions were sitting with him, and she asked, “O father! May I go to play?” He replied, “No.” His companions said to him, “O Abu Yazid, let her go.” He replied, “I have not seen in my book that it is said to her, ‘Go and play,’ but rather it is written, ‘Go and speak good words and do good deeds.’”
