Majma al-Zawaid 17738 — Further reports on admonitions
وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ : النَّاسُ غَادِيَانِ : فَبَائِعٌ نَفْسَهُ فَمَوْبِقُهَا ، وَمُعَادِيهَا فَمُعْتِقُهَا . الصَّدَقَةُ بُرْهَانٌ ، وَالصَّدَقَةُ جُنَّةٌ ، وَالصِّيَامُ جُنَّةٌ ، وَالصَّلَاةُ نُورٌ ، وَالسَّكِينَةُ مَغْنَمٌ وَتَرْكُهَا مَغْرَمٌ . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَإِسْنَادُهُ جَيِّدٌ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says: "People are in two states: one sells himself and makes himself a slave, and another buys himself and sets himself free. Charity is a proof, charity is a shield, fasting is a shield, prayer is light, and tranquility is a gain while abandoning it is a loss."
