Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37422 — The words of Muadh bin Jabal

It is narrated from Muhammad (Ibn Sirin) that a man came with his friends, who were greeting him, bidding him farewell and giving him advice. Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: I advise you with two things. If you preserve them, you will have preserved what your friends have said to you. One is that you cannot do without your share of this world, yet you are in greater need of your share of the Hereafter. So give preference to your share of the Hereafter over your share of this world, for it will bring you to your share of this world or take you past it, and will arrange it for you in good order, and wherever you go it will go with you.
