قيل لحمدون بن أحمد :-
ما بال كلام السلف أنفع من كلامنا ؟
قال : لأنهم تكلموا لعز الإسلام ، ونجاة النفوس ، ورضا الرحمن .
ونحن نتكلم لعز النفس ، وطلب الدنيا ، وقبول الخلق.
[صفة الصفوة ٦٢٧/٢]
It was said to Hamdun bin Ahmad:
Why is it that the speech and words of the those before us proves to be more beneficial than our speech and our words?
He replied: “They would speak for the glory of Islam, to save people (from the fire), and for the pleasure of Allah.
On the other hand, we speak for self-glory, to gain worldly benefit, and acceptance among people.
