أيها الولد .. من جملة ما نصح به رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم أمّته أنه قال من علامات إعراض الله تعالى عن العبد اشتغاله بما لا يعنيه ،وأن امرء ذهبت ساعة من عمره في غير ما خُلِقَ له لجدير أن يطول عليه حسرته إلى يوم القيامة ،ومن جاوز الأربعين ولم يغلب عليه خيره شره فليتجهن إلى النار . وفي هذه النصيحة كفاية لأهل العلم . أيها الولد .. النصيحة سهلة والمشكل قبولها .
