اُردوEn
وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ قَرَأَ : " بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا " فَقَالَ : هَلْ تَدْرُونَ بِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ ابْتَدَأَ بِالْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا ؟ لِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ آثَرْنَا الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا ؟ عُجِّلَتْ لَنَا الدُّنْيَا ، وَأُوتِينَا لَذَّتَهَا وَبَهْجَتَهَا ، وَغُيِّبَتْ عَنَّا الْآخِرَةُ ، وَزُوِيَتْ عَنَّا فَأَحْبَبْنَا الْعَاجِلَ ، وَتَرَكْنَا الْآجِلَ . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ عَطَاءُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ ، وَقَدِ اخْتَلَطَ ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ ثِقَاتٌ .
It is reported about Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he recited this verse: "Rather, you prefer the life of this world." Then he said: "Do you know with what the worldly life began? And why do we prefer the worldly life? The world has been given to us quickly, and we have been given its pleasure and beauty, while the Hereafter is hidden from us and has been folded away from us; so we love what comes quickly and abandon what comes later."
Al-Tabarani recorded it; its chain contains Ata' bin al-Sa'ib, who had become confused (ikhtilat) in his memory, and the rest of its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
