Hadith #40507
وعن ابن عمر رضي الله عنهما أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال:
"إنما مثل صاحب القرآن كمثل الإبل المعقلة، إن عاهد عليها أمسكها، وإن أطلقها، ذهبت" متفق عليه.
On the authority of Ibn Omar, may God be pleased with them both, that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said:
“The example of the Companion of the Qur’an is like that of a camel that is hampered. If he treats them, he keeps them, but if he lets them go, they go.” Agreed upon.
