2180 – ʿAbd Allah narrated to us; my father narrated to me; Ibrāhīm ibn Khālid narrated to me; ʿUmar ibn ⦗302⦘ ʿAbd al-Raḥmān informed me, saying: “They once spoke to Wahb about the worship and ascetic wanderings of the Children of Israel. Wahb (may Allah have mercy upon him) said: ‘In my estimation, whoever mingles with people, guards himself through piety, and patiently endures the harm they inflict is the better man.’”
