2252 – ʿAbd Allah narrated to us; Yaḥyā ibn ʿUthmān al-Ḥarbī narrated to me; Abū al-Malīḥ narrated to us; from Yazīd ibn Yazīd—meaning Ibn Jābir—who said:
Abū Muslim al-Khawlānī would frequently raise his voice with the takbīr (crying “Allāhu akbar”), even when he was with children, and he used to say, “Remember Allah until the ignorant assume you are mad.”
٢٢٥٢ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الْحَرْبِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمَلِيحِ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: كَانَ أَبُو مُسْلِمٍ الْخَوْلَانِيُّ يُكْثِرُ أَنْ يَرْفَعَ صَوْتَهُ بِالتَّكْبِيرِ حَتَّى مَعَ الصِّبْيَانِ، وَكَانَ يَقُولُ: «اذْكُرْ اللَّهَ حَتَّى يَرَى الْجَاهِلُ أَنَّكَ مَجْنُونٌ»
