Verily this world sometimes advances towards the ignorant by convention and turns its back on the intelligent despite [his] merit, so if something of it comes to you with ignorance or you lose something sought with intelligence, then do not let that push you to desiring ignorance or being uninterested in intelligence, for that will degrade you and destroy you.

87 إنَّ الدُّنيا رُبَّما أقْبَلَتْ عَلَى الجاهِلِ بِالاتِّفاقِ، وأدْبَرَتْ عَنِ العاقِلِ بِالاستِحْقاقِ، فَإنْ أتَتْكَ مِنْها سَهْمَةٌ مَعَ جَهْل أوْ فاتَتْكَ مِنْها بِغْيَةٌ مَعَ عَقْل، فَإيّاكَ أنْ يَحْمِلَكَ ذلِكَ عَلَى الرَّغْبَةِ فِي الجَهْلِ، والزُّهْدِ فِي العَقلِ، فَإنَّ ذلكَ يُزري بِكَ ويُرديكَ.
