[Machine] "Join your companion, fold your garment, stitch the shoe, and eat less than you are satisfied with."  

الزهد لأحمد:١٨٦٩حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي عَلِيٌّ حَدَّثَنِي سَيَّارٌ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ لِعُمَرَ «يَا عُمَرُ إِنْ سَرَّكَ

أَنْ تَلْحَقَ بِصَاحِبِكَ فَانْكُسِ الْإِزَارَ واخْصِفِ النَّعْلَ وَكُلْ دُونَ الشِّبَعِ»
