Is the phrase, "Don't talk to me much about religion, but let me see religion in your conduct, morals, and dealings," correct, or does it contradict the texts of the Quran and Sunnah?
The speaker's intention is to: urge action and adherence to religious rulings, and that a Muslim's deeds should outweigh their words, for what matters is action, not mere speech. This is a sound and legitimate intention according to Islamic law. However, if the intention is to discourage knowledge and belittle its importance, then this intention is false, for knowledge is entirely good and guides action.
