حَدَّثَنَا
جَعْفَرُ بْنُ عَوْنٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
إِسْمَاعِيلُ ، عَنْ
قَيْسٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ
الْمُسْتَوْرِدَ أَخَا بَنِي فِهْرٍ يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ :
" وَاللَّهِ مَا الدُّنْيَا فِي الْآخِرَةِ إِلَّا مِثْلُ مَا يَجْعَلُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِصْبَعَهُ فِي الْيَمِّ ، فَلْيَنْظُرْ بِمَ تَرْجِعُ إِلَيْهِ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Mustawrid bin Shaddad (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The relation of this world to the Hereafter is only as much as the drop of water that sticks to one of you’s finger when he dips it into the sea; let him see how much water remains on it when he takes it out.
