“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  

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] 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  

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 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  

[Machine] "From the Prophet ﷺ he said, 'If the son of Adam had two valleys, he would wish for a third valley, and the only purpose of wealth is to establish prayer and give zakat, and the son of Adam cannot be satisfied except with dust, and Allah accepts the repentance of those who repent.'"  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَوْ أَنَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ لَتَمَنَّى وَادِيًا ثَالِثًا وَمَا جُعِلَ الْمَالُ إِلَّا لِإِقَامِ الصَّلَاةِ وَإِيتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ وَلَا يُشْبِعُ ابْنَ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ»  

[Machine] We used to come to the Prophet, ﷺ , when the revelation came to him, and he would talk to us. One day he said to us, "If the son of Adam had a valley, he would love to have a second, and if he had two valleys, he would love to have a third. The only thing that fills the son of Adam's belly is dust, and Allah turns to whoever repents."  

كُنَّا نَأْتِي النَّبِيَّ ﷺ إِذْ أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ الْوَحْيُ فَيُحَدِّثُنَا فَقَالَ لَنَا ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ «لَوْ أَنَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيًا لَأَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِلَيْهِ ثَانٍ وَلَوْ أَنَّ لَهُ وَادِيَيْنِ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ الثَّالِثُ وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ ثُمَّ يَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ»  

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , used to come to us when revelation came to him, and he would teach us what was revealed to him. So, one day I came to him and he said, "Verily, Allah the Exalted says, 'We have sent down wealth to establish prayer and give Zakah. If the son of Adam had a valley, he would love to have another like it. And if he had two valleys, he would love to have a third, and nothing fills the son of Adam except dust. And Allah accepts the repentance of those who repent.' "  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا أُوحِيَ إِلَيْهِ أَتَيْنَاهُ يُعَلِّمُنَا مَا أُوحِيَ إِلَيْهِ فَجِئْتُهُ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى يَقُولُ إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَا الْمَالَ لِإِقَامِ الصَّلَاةِ وَإِيتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ وَلَوْ أَنَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيًا لَأَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِلَيْهِ الثَّانِي وَلَوْ كَانَ لَهُ اثْنَانِ لَأَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِلَيْهِمَا الثَّالِثُ وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللهُ 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".  

"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".  

"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".
