1310 – ʿAbd Allah narrated to us; my father narrated to me; Abu Muʿāwiyah al-Ghalābī narrated to us; a man from the tribe of Tamīm narrated to me: al-Aḥnaf said, “A liar has no murūʾah (noble character), an envious person finds no rest, a miser enjoys no true friendship, one of ill conduct attains no dignity, and the fickle-hearted gains no brotherly companionship.”
١٣١٠ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ الْغَلَابِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي رَجُلٌ، مِنْ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ، قَالَ الْأَحْنَفُ: «لَا مُرُوءَةَ لِكَذَّابٍ، وَلَا رَاحَةَ لِحَسُودٍ، وَلَا خُلَّةَ لَبَخِيلٍ، وَلَا سُؤْدُدَ لِسَيِّئِ الْخُلُقِ، وَلَا إِخَاءَ لِمَلُولٍ»
