Arabic Text
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ ، عَنْ ي
ُونُسَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، قَالَ : كَانَ مَنْ مَضَى مِنْ عُلَمَائِنَا يَقُولُونَ :" الِاعْتِصَامُ بِالسُّنَّةِ نَجَاةٌ، وَالْعِلْمُ يُقْبَضُ قَبْضًا سَرِيعًا، فَنَعْشُ الْعِلْمِ ثَبَاتُ الدِّينِ وَالدُّنْيَا، وَفِي ذَهَابِ الْعِلْمِ ذَهَابُ ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ "

English Translation
It was narrated from al-Zuhri that he said: 'Those of our scholars who came before us used to say: Clinging to the Sunnah is salvation. Knowledge is being lifted rapidly — its preservation is the stability of religion and worldly affairs. And in knowledge's departure is the harm of both religion and worldly affairs.'
