[Machine] I heard Al-Hasan saying, "The knife is sharpened for the son of Adam, the sheep is fed, and the millstone is turned."  

الزهد لأحمد:١٥٣٧حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيٌّ حَدَّثَنَا سَيَّارٌ حَدَّثَنَا مِسْمَعُ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ الْمِسْمَعِيُّ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ يَقُولُ «ابْنَ آدَمَ السِّكِّينُ تُحَدُّ وَالْكَبْشُ يُعْلَفُ وَالتَّنُّورُ يُسْجَرُ»
