Sufyān ath-Thawrī on renouncing the world

Sufyān ath-Thawrī ^{[d. 161H]} (may Allāh have mercy upon him) said: “When a servant renounces the world, Allāh will cause wisdom to grow in his heart and to come forth from his tongue. He will grant him insight into the faults of the world, its diseases, and its cures.”
