Al-Samt wa-Adab al-LisanIbn Abi al-Dunya

633 — Ali ibn Abi Maryam related to me, on the authority of Husayn al-Ju‘fī: Hilāl Abu Ayyūb al-Sayrafī related to us, saying: I asked Talha ibn Musarrif about a piece of poetry. He replied, “Replace this with remembrance, for the remembrance of Allah is better than poetry.”

٦٣٣ - حَدَّثَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، عَنْ حُسَيْنٍ الْجُعْفِيِّ، حَدَّثَنَا هِلَالٌ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ الصَّيْرَفِيُّ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ طَلْحَةَ بْنَ مُصَرِّفٍ، عَنْ شَيْءٍ مِنَ الشِّعْرِ، قَالَ: «اجْعَلْ مَكَانَ هَذَا ذِكْرًا، فَإِنَّ ذِكْرَ اللَّهِ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الشِّعْرِ»
