Musnad Abi Ya'la 3143 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: If the son
حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَرَمِيٌّ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، قَالَ : لَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادٍ مِنْ مَالٍ لَابْتَغَى إِلَيْهِ ثَانِيًا ، وَلَوْ كَانَ لَهُ ثَانِيًا لَابْتَغَى إِلَيْهِ ثَالِثًا ، وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ ، وَيَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ ، قَالَ : فَلَا أَدْرِي شَيْءٌ أَنْزَلَ اللهُ أَمْ كَانَ يَقُولُهُ ؟ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If the son of Adam had a valley of wealth, he would seek a second, and if he had a second, he would long for a third. In reality, nothing fills the belly of the son of Adam except dust, and Allah Almighty accepts the repentance of whoever repents." Qatadah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I do not know whether these words were part of the revelation sent down by Allah Almighty, or whether the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say them himself.
