Hadith 887
Hadith.5841 - The Commander of the Faithful, peace be upon him, passed by a man who was speaking excessively and unnecessarily. Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) stopped and said to him: "O' man, you are dictating to your two recording angels a book to be presented to your Lord (azj). So speak only about what concerns you and leave what does not concern you."
5841 - وَ مَرَّ أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ بِرَجُلٍ يَتَكَلَّمُ بِفُضُولِ اَلْكَلاَمِ فَوَقَفَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ "يَا هَذَا إِنَّكَ تُمْلِي عَلَى حَافِظَيْكَ كِتَاباً إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَتَكَلَّمْ بِمَا يَعْنِيكَ وَ دَعْ مَا لاَ يَعْنِيكَ".
