Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The best people of my Ummah are its scholars, and the best of its scholars are those who are forbearing. Listen! Indeed, before Allah forgives one sin of a hard-hearted ignorant person, He forgives forty sins of a compassionate scholar. And indeed, the compassionate scholar will come on the Day of Resurrection in such a state that his light will be shining. He will walk in that (light) as a shining star." Imam Hakim (may Allah have mercy on him) said: (Its chain) the narrator Ibn Muslima is Muhammad bin Muslima Madini, and he is not Muhammad bin Muslima Qanabi.
