122 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ، ثنا سُفْيَانُ قَالَ: ثنا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ شِمْرِ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ، عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ الْأَخْرَمِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: قَالَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا تَتَّخِذُوا الضَّيْعَةَ فَتَرْغَبُوا فِي الدُّنْيَا» ثُمَّ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَبِرَاذَانَ مَا بِرَاذَانَ وَبِالْمَدِينَةِ مَا بِالْمَدِينَةِ
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to us: "Do not build buildings, otherwise you will become inclined towards the world." Then Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Whatever is in Barazan (is before you), and whatever is in Madinah (is before you).

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Muhammad Ibrahim bin Basheer
Benefit:
Farming is permissible, but if it leads to neglect of religion, then it is not correct. Farming is a very laborious task and requires a great deal of time; therefore, our farmer brothers should pay great attention to their religious obligations.

Explanation:
1:
The word "di'ah" has appeared in the hadith.
By this is meant such properties that are immovable, for example, orchards, fields, and villages, etc.
Some people say:
By this is meant all those things upon which a person's economic life depends.
If these things cause a person to become heedless of the remembrance of Allah, and the person forgets the Hereafter and his heart becomes completely inclined towards the world, then he should distance himself from them and adopt the fear of Allah.
