"If the world to Allah was equal to a mosquito's wing, then He would not allow the disbeliever to have a sip of water from it."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَوْ كَانَتِ الدُّنْيَا تَعْدِلُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ جَنَاحَ بَعُوضَةٍ مَا سَقَى كَافِرًا مِنْهَا شَرْبَةَ مَاءٍ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ
