Muwatta Malik (Yahya) 424 — Comprehensive Chapter on Prayer
وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ مَالِك ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ ، أَنَّ عَطَاءَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ كَانَ إِذَا مَرَّ عَلَيْهِ بَعْضُ مَنْ يَبِيعُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ دَعَاهُ ، فَسَأَلَهُ : " مَا مَعَكَ , وَمَا تُرِيدُ ؟ " فَإِنْ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَبِيعَهُ ، قَالَ : " عَلَيْكَ بِسُوقِ الدُّنْيَا وَإِنَّمَا هَذَا سُوقُ الْآخِرَةِ "
Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) was informed that Ata bin Yasar, when he saw someone selling goods in the mosque, would call him, then ask him: What do you have and what do you want? If he said that he wanted to sell, he would say: Go to the marketplace of the world; this is the marketplace of the Hereafter.
