حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي قَيْسٌ ، قَالَ : أَتَيْتُ خَبَّابًا : وَهُوَ يَبْنِي حَائِطًا لَهُ فَقَالَ : " إِنَّ أَصْحَابَنَا الَّذِينَ مَضَوْا لَمْ تَنْقُصْهُمُ الدُّنْيَا شَيْئًا ، وَإِنَّا أَصَبْنَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ شَيْئًا لَا نَجِدُ لَهُ مَوْضِعًا إِلَّا التُّرَابَ " .
Narrated Qais: I came to Khabbab while he was building a wall, and he (Khabbab) said, "Our companions who have left this world, did not enjoy anything of their reward therein, while we have collected after them, much wealth that we cannot spend but on earth (i.e., on building).

Hadith Commentary:
That is, to construct buildings without necessity.
To construct buildings merely for worldly fame, display, and ostentation is not a commendable act.
However, just as food is necessary, in the same way, a house is also necessary for protection from cold, heat, and rain.
