ذِكْرُ الزَّجْرِ عَنْ إِعْجَابِ الْمَرْءِ بِمَا أُوتِيَ مِنْ هَذِهِ الدُّنْيَا الْفَانِيَةِ وَتَبَخْتُرِهِ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْهَا

[Machine] "A young man from the Quraysh came to Abu Hurairah and said, 'O Abu Hurairah, you narrate a lot of Hadiths from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Have you heard him mentioning anything about this attire of mine?' Abu Hurairah replied, 'Had Allah not obligated me through the Book, I would not have narrated to you anything I heard from him ﷺ. He said, 'Indeed, a man among those who came before you used to beautify himself when he got amazed by his clothes and his hair. So, Allah caused the earth to swallow him and he will continue sinking in it until the Day of Judgment.'"  

ابن حبّان:٥٦٨٤أَخْبَرَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْعَطَّارُ بِالْبَصْرَةِ حَدَّثَنَا هُدْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ

أَنَّ فَتًى مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ أَتَى أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ إِنَّكَ تُكْثِرُ الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَهَلْ سَمِعْتَهُ يَقُولُ فِي حُلَّتِي هَذِهِ؟ فَقَالَ لَوْلَا مَا أَخَذَ اللَّهُ عَلَيَّ فِي الْكِتَابِ مَا حَدَّثْتُكُمْ بِشَيْءٍ سَمِعْتُهُ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِنَّ رَجُلًا مِمَّنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ يَتَبَخْتَرُ إِذْ أَعْجَبَتْهُ جُمَّتُهُ وَبُرْدَاهُ فَخَسَفَ اللَّهُ بِهِ الْأَرْضَ فَهُوَ يَتَجَلْجَلُ فِيهَا إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ»

[Machine] "A young man from the Quraysh came to Abu Huraira, preening himself in his adornments. Abu Huraira then said, 'I heard the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , say: Indeed, there was a man from those before you who would adorn himself in his attire, and he greatly admired his own appearance. When the earth swallowed him up, he continued to adorn himself in it until the Day of Judgment.'"  

أحمد:٩٣٤٦حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا ثَابِتٌ عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ

أَنَّ فَتًى مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ أَتَى أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَتَبَخْتَرُ فِي حُلَّةٍ لَهُ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّ رَجُلًا مِمَّنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ كَانَ يَتَبَخْتَرُ فِي حُلَّةٍ لَهُ قَدْ أَعْجَبَتْهُ جُمَّتُهُ وَبُرْدَاهُ إِذْ خُسِفَ بِهِ الْأَرْضُ فَهُوَ يَتَجَلْجَلُ فِيهَا حَتَّى تَقُومَ السَّاعَةُ
