Imam ash-Shaafi'ee:
"Four things strengthen the intellect: To avoid superfluous speech, to use Siwaak, to sit with righteous people and to sit with the scholars."
(al-Aadaab ash-Shar'iyyah 3/30)
Mu’adh ibn Jabal on his deathbed:
"O Allah! You know that I did not love this life or prolonged stay in it to own springs or to plant trees, but rather to fast for long hot days, stand in prayer during cold nights, strive (in Your cause) for hours at a time, and sit knee to knee with scholars during religious gatherings."
(Minhajul-Qasidin, by Al-Maqsidi,p. 431)
Al-Jarjaani:"The hypocrite is the one who is a disbeliever in his heart but pays lip service to faith outwardly."(At-Ta‘reefaat, p. 298)
