"عَنِ الحَارِثِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ الْكِنْدِىِّ قَالَ: قَدِمْتُ عَلَى عُمَرَ مِنَ الشَّامِ فَسَأَلَنِى عَنِ النَّاسِ، فَقَالَ: لَعَلَّ الرَّجُلَ مِنْكُمِ يَدْخُلُ المَسْجِدَ كَالْبَعيرِ النَّافِرِ فَإِنْ رَأَى مَجْلِسَ قَوْمِهِ ورَأَى مَنْ يَعرفُهم جَلَسَ إلَيْهمْ؟ وَإَلَّا خَرَجَ، قُلْتُ: لَا، وَلِكنَّهَا مَجَالِسُ شَتَّى يَجْلِسُونَ فَيَتعلَّمُونَ الْخَيْرَ وَيَذْكُرونَهُ، فَقَالَ: لَنْ تَزالُوا بِخَيرٍ مَا كُنْتُم كَذَلِكَ".

"It is narrated from al-Harith ibn Mu'awiyah al-Kindi, who said: I came to 'Umar from Syria, and he asked me about the people. He said: Perhaps one of you enters the mosque like a startled camel. If he sees the gathering of his people and sees someone he knows, he sits with them; otherwise he leaves. I said: No, but these are scattered gatherings where they sit and learn good and mention it. He said: You will not cease to be in good as long as you are like that."
