Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 36983 — The words of Sulayman bin Dawud

Khaythamah said: Sulayman bin Dawud (peace be upon them both) said: "We have tried every kind of life, that of comfort and ease and that of hardship and pain, and what we have found is that (whatever state we are in) one can get by even in a state leaner than that."
