رسول الله (صلی الله علیه و آله):
أثنى قومٌ على رجُلٍ عندَ رَسولِ اللّه صلى الله عليه و آله فقالَ رسولُ اللّهِ صلى الله عليه و آله: كَيفَ عَقلُ الرَّجُلِ؟ قالوا: يا رَسولَ ‏اللّهِ، نُخبِرُكَ عَنِ اجتِهادِهِ في العِبادَةِ وأصنافِ الخَيرِ، وتَسألُنا عَن عَقلِهِ؟! فقالَ: إنَّ الأحمَقَ يُصيبُ بِحُمقِهِ أعظَمَ مِن فُجورِ الفاجِرِ، وإنَّما يَرتَفِعُ العِبادُ غَدا في الدَّرَجاتِ ويَنالونَ الزُّلفى مِن رَبِّهِم عَلى قَدرِ عُقولِهِم.

The Prophet (s) asked a group of people who were praising a man, ‘Tell me about his intellect?’ to which they replied, ‘O Prophet of Allah, we are informing you about his earnestness in worship and his various good deeds, and you are asking us about his intellect?!’ So he replied, ‘Verily the stupid person suffers as a result of his stupidity more than the immoral person suffers from his licentiousness. The servants will rise up in rank in the Hereafter and will achieve great proximity to their Lord in proportion to their intellects.’
