Yahya related to me from Malik that he heard that Luqman al-Hakim made his will
and counselled his son, saying, "My son! Sit with the learned men and keep close
to them. Allah gives life to the hearts with the light of wisdom as Allah gives
life to the dead earth with the abundant rain of the sky."
Original Version of The Hadith reported
حَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٌ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ لُقْمَانَ الْحَكِيمَ، أَوْصَى
ابْنَهُ فَقَالَ يَا بُنَىَّ جَالِسِ الْعُلَمَاءَ وَزَاحِمْهُمْ بِرُكْبَتَيْكَ
فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحْيِي الْقُلُوبَ بِنُورِ الْحِكْمَةِ كَمَا يُحْيِي اللَّهُ
