َمَتَى أُمِرْتَ بِبِدْعَةٍ أَوْ زَلَّةٍ
فَاهْرُبْ بِدِينِكَ آخِرَ الْبُلْدَانِ
الدِّينُ رَأْسُ الْمَالِ فَاسْتَمْسِكْ بِهِ
فَضَيَاعُهُ مِنْ أَعْظَمِ الْخُسْرَانِ
“And when you are ordered with innovation or error
Then flee with your religion to the furthest land
The religion is the most important wealth, so hold on to it tightly
For its wastage is from the greatest of failures”
[An-Nooniyyah Imam al-Qahtaani page 24]
