"عن عمر قال: قد علمتُ متى صلاحُ النَّاسِ ومتى فسادُهُم: إذا جاء الفِقْهُ منِ قبل الصَّغِيرِ اسْتَعْصَى عليه الكبيرُ، وإذا جَاءَ الفِقْهُ من قِبَلِ الْكَبِيرِ تَابَعَهُ الصَّغِير فَاهْتَدَيَا".

"Umar said: 'I know when the people's righteousness and their corruption occur: when understanding comes from the young, the elder is disobedient to it; and when understanding comes from the elder, the young follow him, and they are both guided.'"
