Majma al-Zawaid 18072 — The insignificance of this world to Allah

وَعَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : " وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ ، إِنَّ الدُّنْيَا أَهْوَنُ عَلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ السَّخْلَةِ عَلَى أَهْلِهَا ، وَلَوْ كَانَتِ الدُّنْيَا تَعْدِلُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مِثْقَالَ حَبَّةٍ مِنْ خَرْدَلٍ لَمْ يُعْطِهَا إِلَّا لِأَوْلِيَائِهِ وَأَحْبَابِهِ مِنْ خَلْقِهِ " . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ يَحْيَى بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَابَلُتِّيُّ ، وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "By the One in whose Hand is my soul, the world is indeed more worthless to Allah Almighty than this goat is to its owners. If the world were worth the weight of a mustard seed to Allah Almighty, He would have given it only to His friends (awliya') and His beloved servants among His creation."
Al-Tabarani recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, Yahya bin Abdullah al-Babulti, who is da'if (weak).
