Among the Concise Words of the Messenger of Allah (Peace Be Upon Him)
وَ رَوَى حَمَّادُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ عَنِ اَلصَّادِقِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "فِي حِكْمَةِ آلِ دَاوُدَ يَنْبَغِي لِلْعَاقِلِ أَنْ يَكُونَ مُقْبِلاً عَلَى شَأْنِهِ حَافِظاً لِلِسَانِهِ عَارِفاً بِأَهْلِ زَمَانِهِ".
Hammad ibn Uthman narrated from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام who said: "In the wisdom of the family of Dawud عليه السلام, it is fitting for a wise person to be focused on his own affairs, to safeguard his tongue, and to be aware of the people of his time."
