"...Has 7,000 Benefits..."
Some of the wise have said:
Silence has 7,000 benefits, and they can be gathered into 7 short statements, each one has 1,000 benefits.
First: silence is worship without effort
Second: it is adornment without jewelry
Third: it inspires awe without authority
Fourth: it is a fortress without walls
Fifth: it spares you from apologizing to anyone
Sixth: it is a repose given to Kiraam al-Kaatibeen (angels that record your deeds)
Seventh: it is a cover for your faults
And it is said that silence is the adornment of the scholar and the cover of the ignorant.
[tanbeeh al-ghaafileen, 153-154]
