Isma'il ibn Jabir narrated that Imam Sadiq (a.s) said
“knowledge and practicing it are associated with each other. One who knows something practices it, and one who practices something knows it. Knowledge calls for practice, and will remain if one practices it, but it will depart if not put into practice.”
عن إسماعيل بن جابر عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام) قال
العلم مقرون إلى العمل، فمن علم عمل ومن عمل علم، والعلم يهتف بالعمل فإن أجابه وإلا ارتحل عنه.
