English translation

2519. Muḥammad bin Al-Munkadir narrated from Jābir, that a man was mentioned in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ for his worship and his striving in it, and another man was mentioned for his cautious piety. So the Prophet ﷺ said: "Nothing is equal to cautious piety." (Da'if) 'Abdullāh bin Ja'far is one of the children of Al-Miswar bin Makhramah from Al-Madīnah, and he is trustworthy according to the people of Hadīth. [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is [Hasan] Gharīb, we do not know of it except through this route.

Arabic text

٢٥١٩ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌زَيْدُ بْنُ أَخْزَمَ الطَّائِيُّ الْبَصْرِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ أَبِي الْوَزِيرِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْمُخَرِّمِيُّ ، عَنْ ‌مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ نُبَيْهٍ ، عَنْ ‌مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، عَنْ ‌جَابِرٍ قَالَ: «ذُكِرَ رَجُلٌ» عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِعِبَادَةٍ وَاجْتِهَادٍ، وَذُكِرَ عِنْدَهُ آخَرُ بِرِعَةٍ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: لَا يُعْدَلُ بِالرِّعَةِ. وَعَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ هُوَ مِنْ وَلَدِ الْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ، وَهُوَ مَدَنِيٌّ ثِقَةٌ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْحَدِيثِ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ، لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ.

Commentary

Wara' in Arabic means to be pious or refrain from doubtful matters. There is also a proverb that says: Prevention is better than cure.
