"عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: أَيُّكُمْ فِى سَيْرِ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ فِى آجَالٍ مَنْقُوصَةٍ وَأَعْمَالٍ مَحْفُوظَةٍ والمَوْتُ يَأتِى بَغْتَةً فَمَنْ زَرَعَ خَيْرًا يُوشِكُ أَنْ يَحْصُدَ رَغْبَةً وَمَنْ زَرَعَ شَرًّا يُوشِكُ أَنْ يَحْصُدَ نَدَامَةً، وَلكلَّ زَارِعٍ مَا زَرَعَ، وَلا يَسْبِقُ بَطِئٌ حَظَّهُ، وَلا يُدْرِكُ حَرِيصٌ مَا لَمْ يُقَدَّرْ لَهُ، فَمَنْ أُعْطِىَ خَيْرًا فَالله أعْطَاهُ، وَمَنْ وُقِىَ شَرّا فَاللهُ وَقَاهُ، العُلَمَاءُ سَادَةٌ، وَالفُقَهَاءُ قَادَةٌ، وَمُجَالَسَتهُمْ زِيَادَةٌ".

"From Ibn Mas'ud who said: Which of you, in the passing of night and day, with lifespans diminished and deeds preserved, while death comes suddenly? Whoever sows good, it is near that he will reap delight, and whoever sows evil, it is near that he will reap regret. Every sower reaps what he sowed. The slow one does not outrun his share, and the greedy one does not attain what has not been decreed for him. Whoever is given good, Allah has given it to him, and whoever is protected from evil, Allah has protected him. The scholars are masters, the jurists are leaders, and sitting with them is an increase."
