Al-'Aql wa-FadluhIbn Abi al-Dunya

90 – Abu Bakr narrated to me: ʿUbayd Allah ibn Muhammad al-Qurashi reported to us: “A man once addressed a certain king; he began with gentle words and then spoke to him sternly. The king said to him, ‘Why did you not speak to me like this in the first place?’ He replied, ‘When I first spoke to you, I perceived that you possessed intellect, and I knew that your intellect would not let you wrong me.’”

٩٠ - حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْقُرَشِيُّ، قَالَ: " كَلَّمَ رَجُلٌ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْمُلُوكِ فَلَايَنَهُ ثُمَّ أَغْلَظَ لَهُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ الْمَلِكُ: مَا لَكَ لَمْ تُكَلِّمْنِي بِهَذَا أَوَّلًا؟، قَالَ: لَمَّا كَلَّمْتُكَ رَأَيْتُ لَكَ عَقْلًا فَعَلِمْتُ أَنَّ عَقْلَكَ لَا يَتْرُكُكَ تَظْلِمُنِي "
