وَقَالَ عَبْدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ حَجَّاجِ بْنِ فُرَافِصَةَ، عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
« مَنْ طَلَبَ الدُّنْيَا حَرَامًا مُكَاثِرًا مُفَاخِرًا مُرَائِيًا، لَقِيَ اللهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ غَضْبَانُ، وَمَنْ طَلَبَ الدُّنْيَا حَلَالًا اسْتِعْفَافًا عَنِ الْمَسْأَلَةِ وَسَعْيًا عَلَى أَهْلِهِ، وَتَعَطُّفًا عَلَى جَارِهِ لَقِيَ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَوَجْهُهُ مِثْلُ الْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ

✧ Whoever seeks the world through unlawful means, accumulating and boasting, showing off, will meet Allah, Blessed and Exalted, while He is angry with him. And whoever seeks the world through lawful means, to refrain from begging, to provide for his family, and to be kind to his neighbor, will meet Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, with his face like the full moon.
