ahmad-zuhd:1634ʿAbdullāh from my father > Hāshim > Ibn al-Mubārak > al-Ḥasan

[Machine] "If you see people competing in this world, then compete with them in the hereafter, for their worldly possessions will perish but the hereafter will remain."  

الزهد لأحمد:١٦٣٤حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمٌ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ

«إِذَا رَأَيْتَ النَّاسَ يَتَنَافَسُونَ فِي الدُّنْيَا فَنَافِسْهُمْ فِي الْآخِرَةِ فَإِنَّهَا تَذْهَبُ دُنْيَاهُمْ وَتَبْقَى الْآخِرَةُ»
