Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) reports this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "The world is a prison and a (year of) famine for the believer; when he departs from the world, he departs from the prison and the famine."
Ahmad recorded it, and al-Tabarani recorded it in abridged form. The narrators of Ahmad are the narrators of the Sahih, except Abdullah bin Junadah, who is thiqah (trustworthy).
