Makarim al-Akhlaq of Ibn Abi al-Dunya 47

Ibn Abi al-Dunya

««كما أنَّ اللَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ يَعْمَلَانِ فِيكَ، فَاعْمَلْ فِيهِمَا»»

Its text does not say these are the Prophet’s words ﷺ, so they are not framed in gold.

The text as printed

وَحَدَّثَنِي بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ، قَالَ: قَالَ بَعْضُ الْحُكَمَاءِ: «كما أنَّ اللَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ يَعْمَلَانِ فِيكَ، فَاعْمَلْ فِيهِمَا»
