The one who safeguards himself the most

Reference: al-Ibaanah al-Kubraa v2 p596

al-Imaam Ibn Battah said:

The one who safeguards himself the most, is the one who protects his tongue the most [from false and idle speech], and is the busiest of them in terms of his religion, and is one who exerts himself the most in leaving that which does not concern him.
