وَعَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ

قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «آفَةُ الْعِلْمِ النِّسْيَانُ وَإِضَاعَتُهُ أَنْ تُحَدِّثَ بِهِ غَيْرَ أَهْلِهِ»

Al-Amash reported God’s messenger as saying, “The calamity which affects knowledge is forgetfulness, and wasting it is to convey it to those who are unworthy of it.”
