وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَالَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ: أَوْصِنِي. فَقَالَ: «خُذِ ⦗١٤٠٥⦘ الْأَمْرَ بِالتَّدْبِيرِ فَإِنْ رَأَيْتَ فِي عَاقِبَتِهِ خَيْرًا فَأَمْضِهِ وَإِنْ خِفْتَ غَيًّا فَأَمْسِكْ» . رَوَاهُ فِي «شَرْحِ السّنة»
Anas Narrated from:
A man submitted to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم "Do give me some advice (on pursuing my affairs)." He said, "Take up anything after considering its pros and cons. If it seems worthwhile to you, go ahead with it. But, if you are apprehensive of being misled (or fear a loss relative to the hereafter) then, desist." [2]
