Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah Rahimahullah

“The origin of evil is preferring opinion over the texts and preferring desires over the Shari’ah.”

How Much Shaytan Tries to 

Cause Marital Strife

Abū ʾUmāmah – Allāh be pleased with him – said:

Verily Shayṭān comes to your bed after your wife has made it and prepared it and throws a stick, a stone, or something [similar] on it to make the husband angry with his wife. So if someone finds this, let him not be angry with his wife, for it is the work of Shayṭān.

Al-Bukhārī, Al-Adab Al-Mufrad #1191. The chain of transmission is graded ḥasan by Shaykh Al-Albānī; he also regards it as being authentic from the Prophet  صلى الله عليه وسلم . See Ṣaḥīḥ Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 1:463

Woe to the scholar who refrains from teaching the ignorant

Woe to the scholar who refrains

"Woe to the scholar who remains silent and refrains from teaching the ignorant, and woe to the ignorant who does not accept the teachings of a scholar."

(Al-Mustadrak 'Ali Al-Fataawa 281/2)
