Hadith 5189
وَعَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «أَغْبَطُ أَوْلِيَائِي عِنْدِي لَمُؤْمِنٌ خَفِيفُ الْحَاذِ ذُو حَظٍّ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ أَحْسَنَ عِبَادَةَ رَبِّهِ وَأَطَاعَهُ فِي السِّرِّ وَكَانَ غَامِضًا فِي النَّاسِ لَا يُشَارُ إِلَيْهِ بِالْأَصَابِعِ وَكَانَ رِزْقُهُ كَفَافًا فَصَبَرَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ» ثُمَّ نَقَدَ بِيَدِهِ فَقَالَ: «عُجِّلَتْ مَنِيَّتُهُ قَلَّتْ بَوَاكِيهِ قَلَّ تُراثُه» . رَوَاهُ أَحْمد وَالتِّرْمِذِيّ وَابْن مَاجَه
Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), he said: "Among my friends, the believer who is most enviable to me is the one who has little worldly possessions, finds delight in prayer, worships his Lord excellently, obeys Him even in private, is not well-known among people, fingers do not point towards him, his sustenance is just sufficient, and he is patient over it." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) snapped his fingers and said: "His death comes quickly, his mourners are few, and his inheritance is little." Its chain is weak; narrated by Ahmad, al-Tirmidhi, and Ibn Majah.
