Al-MutamanninIbn Abi al-Dunya

61 – Muhammad ibn Ishaq al-Thaqafi narrated to us. He said: It was commonly said, “Whoever makes a habit of procrastination and wishful thinking will never rouse himself to act.” It was also said, “When fear truly unsettles a person, he abandons arjū (I hope), sawfa (I shall), and ʿasā (perhaps).”

٦١ - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الثَّقَفِيُّ، قَالَ: كَانَ يُقَالُ: «مَنِ اسْتَعْمَلَ التَّسْوِيفَ وَالْمُنَى لَمْ يَنْبَعِثْ فِي الْعَمَلِ» وَكَانَ يُقَالُ: «مَنْ أقْلَقَهُ الْخَوْفُ، تَرَكَ أَرْجُو، وَسَوْفَ، وَعَسَى»
