Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37081 — Reports from our Prophet
٣٧٠٨١ - حدثنا عبد اللَّه بن نمير عن موسى بن مسلم الطحان عن عمرو بن مرة عن أبي جعفر المدائني رفعه قال: يا عجبا كل العجب لمصدق بدار الخلود وهو يسعى لدار الغرور، يا عجبا كل العجب (للمختال) (١) الفخور، وإنما خلق من (نطفة) (٢) ثم يعود جيفة، وهو بين ذلك لا يدري ما يفعل به (٣).
It is narrated from Abu Ja'far al-Mada'ini, who reports it in marfu' form, that he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "How astonishing! Utterly astonishing is the man who affirms the Abode of Eternity, Paradise, yet labours for the Abode of Delusion, this world. How astonishing! Utterly astonishing is the one who boasts and is arrogant, when he is merely the product of a drop of fluid, and then he will become a carcass. And in between he does not know what will be done with him."
