Narrated Abu Musa: The Prophet said, The example of a believer who recites the Qur'an and acts on it, like a citron which tastes nice and smells nice.

The third said, I will keep away from the women and will not marry forever. Allah's Apostle came to them and said, Are you the same people who said so-and-so? By Allah, I am more submissive to Allah and more afraid of Him than you; yet I fast and break my fast, I do sleep and I also marry women.
