حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَكِيمٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ حَدَّثَنَا الْمَسْعُودِيُّ أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ مُرَّةَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ
اضْطَجَعَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَلَى حَصِيرٍ فَأَثَّرَ فِي جِلْدِهِ فَقُلْتُ بِأَبِي وَأُمِّي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوْ كُنْتَ آذَنْتَنَا فَفَرَشْنَا لَكَ عَلَيْهِ شَيْئًا يَقِيكَ مِنْهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا أَنَا وَالدُّنْيَا إِنَّمَا أَنَا وَالدُّنْيَا كَرَاكِبٍ اسْتَظَلَّ تَحْتَ شَجَرَةٍ ثُمَّ رَاحَ وَتَرَكَهَا

“The Prophet ﷺ lay down on a reed mat, and it left marks on his skin. I said: ‘May my father and mother be ransomed for you, O Messenger of Allah! If you had told us we would have provided you with something that would save you this trouble.’ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ‘What is there between myself and the world? This world and I are just like a rider who stops to rest beneath the shade of a tree then goes and leaves it.’”

machine translationAl-Masʿūdī narrates it, and there is disagreement concerning him. Wakīʿ, Yazīd b. Hārūn, Ibn al-Mubārak, Ādam b. Abī Iyās, Yūnus b. Bukayr, Hāshim b. al-Qāsim, Abū Qaṭan and al-Muʿāfā b. ʿImrān narrated it from al-Masʿūdī, from ʿAmr b. Murrah, from Ibrāhīm, from ʿAlqamah, from ʿAbdullāh. Ibrāhīm b. ʿAbdullāh al-ʿAbsī narrated it from ʿUbaydullāh b. Mūsā, from al-Masʿūdī, from Ḥammād, from Ibrāhīm. The hadith of ʿAmr b. Murrah is more authentic (aṣaḥḥ).
