٣٨٣٣٠ - حدثنا حسين بن علي عن زائدة عن عبد الملك بن عمير قال: أوصى رجل ابنه فقال: يا بني أظهر الياس مما في أيدي الناس، فإنه (غنى) (١)، (وإياك) (٢) وطلب الحاجات فإنه (فقر) (٣) حاضر، وإياك وما يعتذر منه بالقول، وإذا صليت فصل صلاة مودع لا ترى أنك تعود، وإن استطعت أن تكون اليوم خيرا (منك) (٤) ⦗٧٦⦘ أمس (وغدا) (٥) خيرا منك (اليوم) (٦) فافعل.
Abd al-Malik bin Umayr (may Allah have mercy on him) said: A man advised his son: Show that you have no hope in what is in people's hands, for this is true wealth. Guard yourself against asking for your needs, for this is poverty here and now. Guard yourself against things for which you would have to apologize. When you pray, pray as though it were your last prayer, and do not think that you will have another chance. And if you are able to make your today better than your yesterday, and your coming day better than your today, then certainly do so.
