I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "If the son of Adam (the human being) had two valleys of money, he would wish for a third, for nothing can fill the belly of Adam's son except dust, and Allah forgives him who repents to Him."

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَوْ كَانَ لاِبْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ مَالٍ لاَبْتَغَى ثَالِثًا وَلاَ يَمْلأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلاَّ التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ

I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "If the son of Adam had money equal to a valley, then he will wish for another similar to it, for nothing can satisfy the eye of Adam's son except dust. And Allah forgives him who repents to Him."

Ibn ʿAbbas said: I do not know whether this saying was quoted from the Qur'an or not. ʿAta' said, "I heard Ibn al-Zubayr saying this narration while he was on the pulpit."

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: «لَوْ أَنَّ لاِبْنِ آدَمَ مِثْلَ وَادٍ مَالاً لأَحَبَّ أَنَّ لَهُ إِلَيْهِ مِثْلَهُ وَلاَ يَمْلأُ عَيْنَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلاَّ التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ۔»

قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَلاَ أَدْرِي مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ هُوَ أَمْ لاَ قَالَ وَسَمِعْتُ ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ

I heard Ibn Az-Zubair who was on the pulpit at Mecca, delivering a sermon, saying, "O men! The Prophet used to say, "If the son of Adam were given a valley full of gold, he would love to have a second one; and if he were given the second one, he would love to have a third, for nothing fills the belly of Adam's son except dust. And Allah forgives he who repents to Him." Ubai said, "We considered this as a saying from the Qur'an till the Sura (beginning with) 'The mutual rivalry for piling up of worldly things diverts you..' (102.1) was revealed."

سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ بِمَكَّةَ فِي خُطْبَتِهِ يَقُولُ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ لَوْ أَنَّ ابْنَ آدَمَ أُعْطِيَ وَادِيًا مَلأً مِنْ ذَهَبٍ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِ ثَانِيًا وَلَوْ أُعْطِيَ ثَانِيًا أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِ ثَالِثًا وَلاَ يَسُدُّ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلاَّ التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ

If the son of Adam were to possess two valleys of riches. he would long for the third one. And the stomach of the son of Adam is not filled but with dust. And Allah returns to him who repents.

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَوْ كَانَ لاِبْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ مَالٍ لاَبْتَغَى وَادِيًا ثَالِثًا وَلاَ يَمْلأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلاَّ التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ

“If the son of Adam had two valleys of wealth, he would love to have a third along with them. Nothing could satisfy him except dust. And Allah accepts the repentance of the one who repents.”

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَوْ أَنَّ لاِبْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَيْنِ مِنْ مَالٍ لأَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ مَعَهُمَا ثَالِثٌ وَلاَ يَمْلأُ نَفْسَهُ إِلاَّ التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ

[Machine] I heard the Prophet of Allahﷺ saying, "If the son of Adam had a valley full of money, they would love to have another similar to it, and nothing fills the son of Adam's soul except dust. Allah accepts the repentance of those who repent." Ibn Abbas said, "I do not know if this is from the Quran or not."

سَمِعْتُ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَوْ أَنَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيًا مَالًا لَأَحَبَّ أَنَّ لَهُ إِلَيْهِ مِثْلَهُ وَلَا يَمْلَأُ نَفْسَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَاللهُ يَتُوبُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَلَا أَدْرِي أَمِنَ الْقُرْآنِ هُوَ أَمْ لَا؟

[Machine] "The Prophet of Allah ﷺ used to say, "If the son of Adam had two valleys full of wealth, he would wish for a third valley. And nothing would fill the son of Adam's belly except dust." Al-Affan said, "Then Allah will accept the repentance of those who repent."

أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ لَوْ أَنَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَيْنِ مِنْ مَالٍ إِذًا لَابْتَغَى وَادِيًا ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ قَالَ عَفَّانُ ثُمَّ يَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْتَابَ

I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "If the son of Adam (the human being) had two valleys of money, he would wish for a third, for nothing can fill the belly of Adam's son except dust, and Allah forgives him who repents to Him." (Using translation from Bukhārī 6436)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَابْتَغَى إِلَيْهِمَا ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If the son of Adam had a valley of wealth, he would desire two valleys, and if he had two valleys, he would desire a third. Nothing can fill the stomach of the son of Adam except dust (of the grave)."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْ أَنَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيًا مِنْ مَالٍ لَتَمَنَّى وَادِيَيْنِ وَلَوْ أَنَّ لَهُ وَادِيَيْنِ لَتَمَنَّى ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ

[Machine] I asked Aisha, "Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say anything when he entered the house?" She replied, "When he entered the house, he would assume as if he had two valleys filled with wealth, he would seek a third valley, and his stomach would never be filled except with dirt. And we have only made wealth for the establishment of prayer and the giving of zakat. Allah accepts the repentance of those who repent."

قُلْتُ لِعَائِشَةَ هَلْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ شَيْئًا إِذَا دَخَلَ الْبَيْتَ؟ قَالَتْ كَانَ إِذَا دَخَلَ الْبَيْتَ تَمَثَّلَ لَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَابْتَغَى وَادِيًا ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ فَمَهُ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَمَا جَعَلْنَا الْمَالَ إِلَّا لِإِقَامِ الصَّلَاةِ وَإِيتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ وَيَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ

We came to the Prophet ﷺ when Divine Revelation came down to him, then he spoke to us and told us that day, "Allah said: Verily, We have sent down wealth for the performance of prayer and offering charity. If the son of Adam owned a valley, he would like to have a second. And if he had two valleys, he would like to add a third. Nothing fills the belly of the son of Adam but the dirt ˹of the grave˺, yet Allah turns to whoever repents."

كُنَّا نَأْتِي النَّبِيَّ ﷺ إِذَا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ فَيُحَدِّثُنَا فَقَالَ لَنَا ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ: «إِنَّ اللهَ قَالَ: (إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَا الْمَالَ لِإِقَامِ الصَّلَاةِ وَإِيتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ وَلَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادٍ لَأَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِلَيْهِ ثَانٍ وَلَوْ كَانَ لَهُ وَادِيَانِ لَأَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِلَيْهِمَا ثَالِثٌ وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ ثُمَّ يَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ۔)»

[Machine] I heard the Prophet of Allah ﷺ saying, "If the son of Adam had two valleys of wealth, he would desire a third valley, and nothing can fill the stomach of the son of Adam except dust (i.e. death), and Allah accepts the repentance of those who repent."

سَمِعْتُ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَوْ أَنَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَيْنِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَابْتَغَى وَادِيًا ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ

[Machine] I used to hear the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "I do not know if something has been revealed to me or if I am speaking on my own accord." If the son of Adam had two valleys of wealth, he would desire a third one, and nothing would fill the belly of the son of Adam except dust. Allah accepts the repentance of whoever repents.

أَسْمَعُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ فَلَا أَدْرِي أَشَيْءٌ نَزَلَ عَلَيْهِ أَمْ شَيْءٌ يَقُولُهُ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ؟ لَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَابْتَغَى لَهُمَا ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say something but I do not know if it was revealed or if he said it himself. If the son of Adam had a valley full of wealth, he would still desire a second valley, and nothing would fill the stomach of the son of Adam except dust. Allah accepts the repentance of those who repent.

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَا أَدْرِي أَشَيْءٌ أُنْزِلَ أَمْ كَانَ يَقُولُهُ لَوْ أَنَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَقَالَ حَجَّاجٌ لَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَتَمَنَّى وَادِيًا ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ

[Machine] I hear the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and I do not know whether something is being revealed to him or he is saying something; and he says, "If the son of Adam had a valley full of wealth, he would seek to have a second one, and nothing can fill the belly of the son of Adam except dust. Allah accepts the repentance of those who repent."

أَسْمَعُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَا أَدْرِي أَشَيْءٌ أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ أَمْ شَيْءٌ يَقُولُهُ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ «لَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَابْتَغَى إِلَيْهِمَا ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ»

[Machine] I heard the Prophet ﷺ say, "If the son of Adam had a valley of wealth, he would desire to have another similar to it. However, nothing can fill the soul of the son of Adam except dust. Allah accepts the repentance of those who repent."

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَوْ أَنَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ مِلْءَ وَادِي مَالٍ لَأَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَهُ مِثْلُهُ وَلَا يَمْلَأُ نَفْسَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَاللَّهُ يَتُوبُ عَلَى مِنْ تَابَ»

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If the son of Adam had two valleys of wealth, he would desire a third, and nothing fills the belly of the son of Adam except the dust. Allah accepts the repentance of those who repent."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَوْ أَنَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَيْنِ مِنْ نَخْلٍ لَابْتَغَى إِلَيْهِ ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ»

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "If the son of Adam had a valley full of dates, he would wish for another similar to it, and nothing would fill the stomach of the son of Adam except dust."

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادٍ مِنْ نَخْلٍ لَتَمَنَّى إِلَيْهِ مِثْلَهُ وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ»

[Machine] I heard the Prophet ﷺ say, "If the son of Adam had a valley filled with wealth, he would desire to have another one similar to it. But nothing fills the son of Adam's soul except dust, and Allah forgives those who repent."

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَوْ أَنَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيًا مَالًا لَأُحِبَّ أَنَّ لَهُ مِثْلَهُ وَلَا يَمْلَأُ نَفْسَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ»

If the son of Adam were to possess two valleys of riches. he would long for the third one. And the stomach of the son of Adam is not filled but with dust. And Allah returns to him who repents. (Using translation from Muslim 1048a)

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَابْتَغَى وَادِيًا ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ ثُمَّ يَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ»

[Machine] Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ , he said, "If the son of Adam were to possess two valleys of wealth, he would still desire a third, and nothing can fill the son of Adam except dust. Allah accepts the repentance of those who repent."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَوْ سُئِلَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَتَمَنَّى إِلَيْهِمَا ثَالِثًا وَلَا يُشْبِعُ ابْنَ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ»

[Machine] "We used to read during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , 'If the son of Adam had a valley of gold or silver, he would still wish for a third, and nothing would fill the son of Adam's stomach except dust. And Allah accepts the repentance of those who repent.'"

كُنَّا نَقْرَأُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ أَوْ فِضَّةٍ لَتَمَنَّى الثَّالِثُ وَلَا يَمْلَأُ بَطْنَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ»

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If the son of Adam had two valleys of wealth, he would seek a third, and nothing would fill the belly of the son of Adam except dust. Allah will accept the repentance of whoever repents to Him."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ أَنَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَيْنِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَابْتَغَى إِلَيْهِمَا ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ»

[Machine] I heard Ibn Zubayr on the pulpit of Mecca saying in his sermon, "O people, indeed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say, 'If the son of Adam were given a valley full of gold, he would love to have a second valley, and if he were given the second valley, he would love to have a third valley. The stomach of the son of Adam will not be filled except with dust, and Allah accepts the repentance of those who repent.'"

سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ عَلَى مِنْبَرِ مَكَّةَ يَقُولُ فِي خُطْبَتِهِ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ «لَوْ أَنَّ ابْنَ آدَمَ أُعْطِيَ وَادِيًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِ ثَانِيًا أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِ ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ»

اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم قَالَ لَوْ كَانَ لابْنِ آدَمَ وَادٍ مِنْ مَالٍ لابْتَغَى وَادِيًا ثَانِيًا ولاَ يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابن آدم إلاَّ التراب ويتوب على من تاب

عَلَيه وَسَلَّم فَلا أَدْرِي أَشَيْءٌ أُنْزِلَ أَمْ كَانَ يَقُولُهُ لَوْ أَنَّ لابْنِ آدَمَ وَاديًا مِنْ مَالٍ لَتَمَنَّى أَوْ لابْتَغَى وَادِيًا ثَانِيًا ولاَ يَمْلأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إلاَّ التُّرَابُ ويتوب الله على من تاب

اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم قَالَ فَلا أَدْرِي أَشَيْءٌ نَزَلَ أَمْ كَانَ يَقُولُهُ لَوْ كَانَ لابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيًا مِنْ مَالٍ لَتَمَنَّى أَوْ لابْتَغَى ثَانِيًا ولاَ يملأ جوف ابن آدم إلاَّ التراب

اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم قال لو كان لابن آدم واديين مِنْ مَالٍ لابْتَغَى وَادِيًا ثَالثًا ولاَ يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إلاَّ التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ

"لَوْ سِيلَ لابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِن مَالٍ لَتَمَنَّى إلَيهِمَا ثَالثًا وَلا يُشْبِعُ ابْنَ آدم إلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ".

"لَوْ كَانَ لابْنِ آدَمَ وَاد من مَال لابْتَغَى إِليه ثَانِيًا وَلَوْ كَانَ لَهُ وَاديَانِ لابْتَغَى لَهُمَا ثَالِثًا، وَلَا يَمْلأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ (إِلّا التُراب) (*)، ويتوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَاب".

"لَوْ أَنَّ لِلإنْسَانِ وَادِيَينِ مِنْ مَالٍ لابْتَغَى وَادِيًا ثَالثًا، وَلَا يَمْلأُ نَفْسَ ابْنَ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ، وَيَتُوبُ الله عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ".

"إِنَّ الله ﷻ قَال: إِنَّا أَنزَلْنَا الْمَال لإِقَامِ الصَّلاةِ وإيتاءِ الزَّكَاةِ، وَلوْ كَان لابْنِ آدَم وادٍ لأحَبَّ أنْ يَكُون لَهُ ثَانٍ، ولَوْ كَان وَادِيَان لأحَبَّ أن يَكُون إِلَيهِما ثَالثٌ، ولا يَمْلأُ جَوْف ابن آدم إلَّا التُّرابُ، ثُمَّ يَتُوبُ الله عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ".

"عَنْ أَبِي وَائلٍ قَالَ: كُنَّا نَأتِي النَبِيَّ ﷺ فَإذَا نَزَلَ عَلَيْهِ شَيْءٌ مِن القُرْآنِ أَخْبَرَنَا بِهِ، فَقَالَ لَنَا ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ: قَالَ اللهُ - تَعَالَى-: إِنَّا أَنْزَلَنَا المَالَ لإِقَامِ الصَّلاةِ، وَإِيتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ، وَلَوْ أَنَّ لابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيًا مِنْ مَالٍ لابَتَغَى إِلِيْهِ الثَّانِي، وَلَوْ أَنَّ لَهُ الثَّانِي لاَبْتَغَى إلَيْهِ الثَّالِثَ، وَلَا يَمْلأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إلَّا التراب، وَيَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ".
