Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 25327a
"لاَ تَكُونُ مُسْلِمًا حَتَّى يَسْلَمَ النَّاسُ مِنْ لِسَانِكَ وَيَدِكَ، وَلاَ تَكُنْ عَالِمًا حَتَّى تَكُونَ بِالعِلم عَامِلًا، وَلاَ تَكُونُ عَابِدًا حَتَّى تَكُونَ وَرعًا، وَلاَ تَكُونُ وَرِعًا حَتَّى تَكُونَ زَاهدًا، أطِلِ الصَّمْتَ، وَأَكْثر الفِكْرَ، وَأَقلَّ الضَّحكَ فَإنَّ كَثْرَةَ الضَّحك مَفْسَدَةٌ لِلقَلبِ".

"You are not a Muslim until the people are safe from your tongue and your hand. Do not be a scholar until you act upon your knowledge. Do not be a worshipper until you are scrupulous (wara'). Do not be scrupulous until you are an ascetic. Prolong your silence, increase your reflection, and decrease your laughter, for excessive laughter corrupts the heart."
