Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The world is cursed, and everything in it is cursed, except for the scholar, the remembrance of Allah Almighty and whatever is connected with it (that is, these things are not cursed)."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat and said: No one narrated it from Ibn Thawban from Abdah except Abu al-Mutarrif al-Mughirah bin Mutarrif. (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: I have not seen anyone who mentions him.
