وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، ثَنَا الْجُرَيْرِيُّ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ غِلَاقٍ، قُلْتُ لِأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ، فَقَالَ:
لَا تَكُنْ عَرِيفًا وَلَا شُرْطِيًّا. قُلْتُ: لِمَ ؟ قَالَ: يُدِينُوكَ وَلَا يَنْسَوْنَكَ

✧ Do not be an arif or a policeman. I said: Why? He said: They will burden you with debts and will not forget you.
