'Umar said , " Take account of your own selves (your deeds), before you will be taken to account. Weigh yourselves before you will be weighed. Indeed, if you hold yourselves accountable today, the accountability tomorrow will be
easier upon you. And adorn yourselves for the greater display (day of judgment)
That Day you shall be brought to Judgement, not a secret of you will be hidden. (Al-Haqqah 69:18)
And once 'Umar once said to Al-Ahnaf bin Qais , " Oh Ahnaf, the more one laughs ,the less dignity will he possess. Whoever jokes (excessively) is a person who will be taken lightly. Whoever does something frequently will known by that thing. Whoever speaks often, errs often; the more often one errs, the less modesty he will possess; Whomever has a low level of modesty will also have a low level of piety; and when one has a low level of piety, then his heart dies."
When advising another man, 'Umar said "Do not speak about that which does not concern you. Know your enemy and be wary of your friend, except for the trustworthy one. And no one is trustworthy, except for the person who fears
Allah. Do not walk with the evildoer, lest he teaches you some of his evil; and do not reveal your secrets to him. And when you consult others in your affairs, consult only those who fear Allah 'Azza wa jall"
