When Allah loves a servant He protects him from the world

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Qatadah bin al-Nu'man (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When Allah Almighty loves a servant, He protects him from the world (and its pleasures) just as one of you protects his sick person from water."
This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was lying on a mat whose marks were visible on his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed side. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah! If only you would take a softer bed than this. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What have I to do with the world, and what has the world to do with me! By the One in whose Hand is my soul! The likeness of me and the world is only that of a rider travelling on a summer day who stops for a short while under the shade of a tree to rest, then leaves it and moves on."
This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Bukhari, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it. And its supporting narration (shahid) is the hadith of Abdullah bin Mas'ud.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What connection do I have with the world? The likeness of me and the world is only that of a rider who took a midday rest (qaylulah) under the shade of a tree on a summer day, then went on from there and left it behind."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever seeks the reward that is with Allah, the sky becomes his shade and the earth his bed. He does not worry about any worldly matter; he does not grow crops yet he eats bread, he does not plant trees yet he eats fruit. All this is due to his reliance on Allah Almighty and his seeking of His pleasure. So Allah Almighty makes the seven heavens and the seven earths guarantors of his provision; they toil for his provision and bring it to him by lawful means, and he receives his provision in full with Allah without any reckoning, until death comes to him."
This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration through the Syrian narrators, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
