وَعَن مُحَمَّد بن كَعْب الْقرظِيّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي مَنْ سَمِعَ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالب قَالَ: إِنَّا لَجُلُوسٌ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَاطَّلَعَ عَلَيْنَا مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ مَا عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا بُرْدَةٌ لَهُ مَرْقُوعَةٌ بِفَرْوٍ فَلَمَّا رَآهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَكَى لِلَّذِي كَانَ فِيهِ مِنَ النِّعْمَةِ وَالَّذِي هُوَ فِيهِ الْيَوْمَ ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «كَيْفَ بِكُمْ إِذَا غَدَا أَحَدُكُمْ فِي حُلَّةٍ وَرَاحَ فِي حُلَّةٍ؟ وَوُضِعَتْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ صَحْفَةٌ وَرُفِعَتْ أُخْرَى وَسَتَرْتُمْ بُيُوتَكُمْ كَمَا تُسْتَرُ الْكَعْبَة؟» . فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَحْنُ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَيْرٌ مِنَّا الْيَوْمَ نَتَفَرَّغُ لِلْعِبَادَةِ وَنُكْفَى الْمُؤْنَةَ. قَالَ: «لَا أَنْتُمُ الْيَوْمَ خَيْرٌ مِنْكُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيّ
Muhammad bin Ka'b Qurazi narrates: The person who heard from Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated to me: He said, We were sitting in the mosque with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when suddenly Mus'ab bin Umair (may Allah be pleased with him) came to us. He was wearing only one sheet, which had leather patches on it. When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saw him, he began to weep upon seeing the difference between his previous state of blessings and his current state. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What will your condition be when one of you will wear one set of clothes in the morning and another in the evening, a dish will be placed on your table and another will be removed, and you will cover your houses (with curtains and decorations) just as the Ka'bah is covered (with cloths)?" The Companions said, O Messenger of Allah! At that time we will be better than we are today; we will be free for worship and will be relieved from work (servants will do the work). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No, today you are better than you will be at that time." Its chain is weak. Narrated by al-Tirmidhi.
