وَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ: حَدَّثَنَا عَمَّارُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
« نِعْمَ الْبَيْتُ الْحَمَّامُ، يَدْخُلُهُ الرَّجُلُ الْمُسْلِمُ ; لِأَنَّهُ إِذَا دَخَلَهُ سَأَلَ تَعَالَى الْجَنَّةَ، وَاسْتَعَاذَ بِهِ مِنَ النَّارِ. وَبِئْسَ الْبَيْتُ الْعُرْسُ يَدْخُلُهُ الرَّجُلُ الْمُسْلِمُ ; لِأَنَّهُ إِذَا دَخَلَهُ رَغَّبَهُ فِي الدُّنْيَا، وَأَنْسَاهُ الْآخِرَةَ

✧ What a good house the bathhouse is: a Muslim man enters it because when he enters it, he asks Allah Almighty for Paradise and seeks refuge in Him from the Fire. And what a bad house the wedding is: a Muslim man enters it because when he enters it, it makes him desire this world and forgets the Hereafter.
