وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: يَهْرَمُ ابْنُ آدَمَ وَيَشِبُّ مِنْهُ اثْنَانِ: الْحِرْصُ عَلَى الْمَالِ وَالْحِرْصُ عَلَى الْعُمُرِ . مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ
Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "A person grows old, but two things in him remain young: the desire for wealth and the desire for a long life." Agreed upon.
