ahmad-zuhd:993 – ʿAbdullāh from my father > Abū ʿUbaydah al-Ḥaddād > ʿUthmān al-Shaḥḥām Abū Salamah > Farqad al-Sabaḥī

[Machine] Abu Hurairah used to circumambulate the Kaaba while saying, "Woe to me from my stomach, if I fill it, it burdens me. And if I empty it, it weakens me."

الزهد لأحمد:٩٩٣ – حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ الْحَدَّادُ أَنْبَأَنَا عُثْمَانُ الشَّحَّامُ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ أَنْبَأَنَا فَرْقَدُ السَّبَحِيُّ قَالَ

كَانَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ يَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ وَيْلٌ لِي مِنْ بَطْنِي إِنْ أَشْبَعْتُهُ كَضَّنِي وَإِنْ أَجَعْتُهُ أَنْصَبَنِي
