72 – Abū ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Awdī narrated to me, on the authority of Ismāʿīl ibn ʿAbd al-Karīm, ʿAbd al-Ṣamad ibn Maʿqil, and Wahb ibn Munabbih, who said:

“It is recorded in the maxims of wisdom: ‘All ultimate conclusions come down to three: anger is the very essence of foolishness, repose is the very essence of forbearance, and victory is the very essence of patience.’”
