حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْكِنْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ حُبَابٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي الْمَسْعُودِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ : نَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى حَصِيرٍ , فَقَامَ وَقَدْ أَثَّرَ فِي جَنْبِهِ ، فَقُلْنَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ , لَوِ اتَّخَذْنَا لَكَ وِطَاءً ، فَقَالَ : " مَا لِي وَمَا لِلدُّنْيَا مَا أَنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا كَرَاكِبٍ اسْتَظَلَّ تَحْتَ شَجَرَةٍ ثُمَّ رَاحَ وَتَرَكَهَا " , قَالَ : وفي الباب عن ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ .
´'Abdullah narrated :` "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) was sleeping upon a mat, then he stood, and the mat had left marks on his side. We said: 'O Messenger of Allah! We said: 'O Messenger of Allah! We could get a bed for you.' He said: 'What do I have to do with the world! I am not in the world but as a rider seeking shade under a tree, then he catches his breath and leaves it.'"

Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:
➊ Simplicity in living arrangements is commendable.
➋ Abstaining from fine things, if done with the intention that the money saved will be spent in the way of Allah, is better; but if it is due to miserliness, then it is a bad habit. If a lawful thing is made unlawful for oneself, it is religiously prohibited.
➌ Zuhd (asceticism) means not being greedy for the blessings of the world; if something comes by lawful means without greed, it is not religiously prohibited to use it.
➌ Zuhd (asceticism) means not being greedy for the blessings of the world; if something comes by lawful means without greed, it may be used. Excessive formality and affectation are contrary to zuhd.
➍ The effect of preaching is greater when a practical example is presented of what is being invited to.
➎ Government officials should especially avoid a life of luxury so that more funds can be spent on the needs and welfare of the public.
