English Translation
It was narrated from Abu Qilabah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: 'Learn knowledge before it is lifted — and its being lifted means that its people depart. Beware — beware of newly invented matters and going deep into disputation, and cling to the ancient way.'
