"...out of fear that it may
rest upon my heart”

Abu Zur’ah ar-Raazee (died 264A.H.) said:
((My
ears have never heard anything of knowledge except that it
has rested upon my heart (i.e. I have memorised it).
Whilst
I would walk through the market of Baghdad, I could hear the
sound of female singers from the rooms, so I would put my
fingers in my ears (to block out the sound) out of fear that
it may rest upon my heart (i.e. I may end up memorising the
words)))
