1039 - 'Abd al-Malik al-Maymuni informed me, saying: Ya'la ibn 'Ubayd said to me more than sixty years ago: "Faith is speech and action, and indeed the one who fasts, prays, and performs righteous deeds is greater in faith than the one who steals and commits adultery."
١٠٣٩ - أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ الْمَيْمُونِيُّ، قَالَ: قَالَ لِي يَعْلَى بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ مُنْذُ أَكْثَرِ مِنْ سِتِّينَ سَنَةً: «الْإِيمَانُ قَوْلٌ وَعَمَلٌ، وَإِنَّ الَّذِي يَصُومُ وَيُصَلِّي وَيَفْعَلُ الصَّالِحَاتِ أَكْثَرُ إِيمَانًا مِنَ الَّذِي يَسْرِقُ وَيَزْنِي»
