باب الْعَمَلِ بِالْعِلْمِ وَحُسْنِ النِّيَّةِ فِيهِ:Chapter: Acting Upon Knowledge and Sincerity in It
Hadith 266
أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مَزْيَدٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ يَزِيدَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ يُحَدِّثُ، عَنْ سَعْدٍ، أَنَّهُ أَتَى ابْنَ مُنَبِّهٍ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ الْحَسَنِ، وَقَالَ لَهُ: كَيْفَ عَقْلُهُ ؟ فَأَخْبَرَهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: إِنَّا لَنَتَحَدَّثُ، أَوْ نَجِدُ فِي الْكُتُبِ أَنَّهُ: "مَا آتَى اللَّهُ سًبْحَانَه عَبْدًا عِلْمًا فَعَمِلَ بِهِ عَلَى سَبِيلِ الْهُدَى، فَيَسْلُبَهُ عَقْلَهُ حَتَّى يَقْبِضَهُ اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ".
It is narrated from Sa’d that he went to Wahb bin Munabbih, and Wahb asked him about Hasan al-Basri (may Allah have mercy on him), inquiring about his intellect and understanding. Sa’d described his condition, and then said: We have read in the (heavenly) scriptures that Allah Almighty has never granted knowledge to any servant, and that servant acted upon it while following the path of guidance, except that Allah Almighty would not take away his intellect until He seizes his soul and calls him to Himself.
