Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 18068

وَعَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ قَالَ : مَرَّ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - بِدِمْنَةِ قَوْمٍ فِيهَا سَخْلَةٌ مَيِّتَةٌ فَقَالَ : " مَا لِأَهْلِهَا فِيهَا حَاجَةٌ " . فَقَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، لَوْ كَانَ لِأَهْلِهَا فِيهَا حَاجَةٌ مَا نَبَذُوهَا . فَقَالَ : " وَاللَّهِ ، لَلدُّنْيَا أَهْوَنُ عَلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ السَّخْلَةِ عَلَى أَهْلِهَا ، فَلَا أَلْفِيَنَّهَا أَهْلَكَتْ أَحَدًا مِنْكُمْ " . رَوَاهُ الْبَزَّارُ ، وَرِجَالُهُ ثِقَاتٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu al-Darda' (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by the refuse heap of a people where there was a dead goat. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Would its owners not have any need of it?" The people said: "O Messenger of Allah, had its owners needed it, they would not have thrown it away." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "By Allah, the world is more worthless to Allah Almighty than this goat is to its owners, and let me never find it (that is, the world) in a state where it has brought ruin upon any of you."
Al-Bazzar recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
