[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The life of this world compared to the Hereafter is nothing more than a person putting his finger in this ocean and seeing what it returns with."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَا الدُّنْيَا فِي الْآخِرَةِ إِلَّا مِثْلُ مَا يَجْعَلُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِصْبَعَهُ فِي هَذَا الْبَحْرِ فَلْيَنْظُرْ بِمَ يَرْجِعُ؟»

I heard Mustawrid, a member of Banu Fihr, saying: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The world compared to the Hereafter is but like what one of you gets when placing his finger into the sea, so look at what you draw from it."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا الدُّنْيَا فِي الآخِرَةِ إِلاَّ مِثْلُ مَا يَجْعَلُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِصْبَعَهُ فِي الْيَمِّ فَلْيَنْظُرْ بِمَاذَا يَرْجِعُ
“I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: ‘The likeness of this world in comparison to the Hereafter is that of anyone of you dipping his finger into the sea: let him see what he brings forth.’”
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَا مَثَلُ الدُّنْيَا فِي الآخِرَةِ إِلاَّ مَثَلُ مَا يَجْعَلُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِصْبَعَهُ فِي الْيَمِّ فَلْيَنْظُرْ بِمَ يَرْجِعُ
“I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: ‘The likeness of this world in comparison to the Hereafter is that of anyone of you dipping his finger into the sea: let him see what he brings forth.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 4108)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا الدُّنْيَا فِي الْآخِرَةِ إِلَّا كَمِثْلِ مَا يَجْعَلُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِصْبَعَهُ هَذِهِ فِي الْيَمِّ فَلْيَنْظُرْ بِمَا يَرْجِعُ وَأَشَارَ بِالسَّبَّابَةِ
