وكتب عُمَرُ بنُ عبد العزيز إلى رجلٍ : أُوصيك بتقوى الله - عز وجل - التي لا يقبلُ غَيرَها ، ولا يَرْحَمُ إلاَّ أهلَها ، ولا يُثيبُ إلا عليها ، فإنَّ الواعظين بها كثير ، والعاملين بها قليل ، جعلنا الله وإيَّاك من المتقين
"I advise you all to have taqwā of Allah, the Almighty and Exalted – the One who doesn’t accept anything but it (taqwā), and doesn’t confer Mercy except upon its people, and does not reward except those who have it – for those who preach about it are many, and those who actually practice it few – may Allah make you and I from the people of taqwā."
O you who believe! Why do you say that which you do not do? Grievously hateful is it in the sight of Allah that you should say what you do not do.
[as-Saff 61:2-3.]
Do you enjoin righteousness upon mankind while you yourselves forget [to practice it]? And you are readers of the Scripture/ Have you then no sense?
[al-Baqara 2: 44.]
