لَا تَنْتَصِحْ بِمَنْ فَاتَهُ الْعَقْلُ وَلَا تَثِقْ بِمَنْ خَانَهُ الْأَصْلُ فَإِنَّ مَنْ فَاتَهُ الْعَقْلُ يَغُشُّ مِنْ حَيْثُ يَنْصَحُ وَمَنْ خَانَهُ الْأَصْلُ يُفْسِدُ مِنْ حَيْثُ يَصْلُحُ
Do not take advice from one who has lost his senses and do not trust one who has an ignoble background, for indeed the one who has lost his senses deceives while he thinks he is offering good advice, and one who has an ignoble background corrupts while he thinks he is rectifying
