Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37409 — The words of Abu Dharr

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: By Allah, if you knew what I know, you would weep much and laugh little. And if you people knew what I know, you would not stretch out your hands to your wives, you would find no rest on your beds, and you would go out to the valleys raising your voices and weeping. By Allah, if only on the day of my creation I had been made a tree that is cut down and eaten from.
