[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ heard the voice of a man calling the adhan (call to prayer), so he started reciting it just as the man did until he reached the testimony that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Al-Hakam said, "I have not heard this from Ibn Abi Layla (the narrator of the hadith)." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, this is a shepherd or a single man who is away from his family. He descended into the valley and found a dead sheep. He said, 'Do you think its owner would find it easy (to bear)?' They replied, 'Yes.' He then said, 'The world is easier for Allah than this (dead sheep) is for its owner.'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ سَمِعَ صَوْتَ رَجُلٍ يُؤَذِّنُ فَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ مِثْلَ مَا يَقُولُ حَتَّى إِذَا بَلَغَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ قَالَ الْحَكَمُ لَمْ أَسْمَعْ هَذَا مِنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ هَذَا لَرَاعِي غَنَمٍ أَوْ رَجُلٍ عَازِبٍ عَنْ أَهْلِهِ فَهَبَطَ الْوَادِيَ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِرَاعِي غَنَمٍ وَإِذَا هُوَ بِشَاةٍ مَيِّتَةٍ فَقَالَ «تَرَوْنَ هَذِهِ هَيِّنَةٌ عَلَى أَهْلِهَا؟» قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ «الدُّنْيَا أَهْوَنُ عَلَى اللهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ عَلَى أَهْلِهَا»
