"عن مسروق قال: خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا عُمَرُ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ وَعَلَيْهِ حُلَّةُ قِطر فنَظَرَ إِلَيْه النَّاس نَظَرًا شَدِيدًا، فَقَالَ: لَا شَىْءَ فِيمَا تَرَى إِلا بَشَاشَتُهُ... يبقَى الإِلَهُ ويُودِى الْمَالُ وَالْوَلَدُ وَاللَّه مَا الدُّنْيَا في الآخِرَةِ إِلَّا كَنَفْجَة أرْنَبٍ".

"From Masruq, who said: 'Umar came out to us one day wearing a garment of Qatari cloth, and the people looked at him intently. He said: There is nothing in what you see except its brightness... Allah remains, while wealth and children perish. By Allah, the world in comparison to the Hereafter is nothing but a rabbit's scut."
