"عن عطاءٍ قَالَ: دخلَ عمرُ بنُ الخطابِ على النبىِّ ﷺ ذَاتَ يومٍ وهو مُضْطجعٌ على ضِجَاعٍ من أدَمٍ محشوٍّ لِيفًا، وفى البيت أهبةٌ ملقاةٌ، فبكَى عمرُ، فقالَ: ما يبكِيكَ يا عمرُ؟ قالَ: أبكى أنَّ كسرَى في الخزِّ والقزِّ (والحرير) والديباجِ، وقيصرَ في مثلِ ذلكَ، وأنتَ نَجِيبُ اللَّه وَخِيرَتُهُ كَمَا أَرَى! ! قَالَ: لا تبكِ يا عمرُ؛ فلوْ أَشَاءُ أن تسيرَ الجبالُ ذهبًا لسارَتْ، ولو أن الدنيَا تَعْدِلُ عندَ اللَّه جناحَ بعوضةٍ ما أعْطى كَافِرًا منهَا شيئًا".

"'Ata' said: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab entered upon the Prophet ﷺ one day while he was reclining on a leather cushion stuffed with palm fiber, and in the house there were scattered hides. 'Umar wept, and he said: What makes you weep, O 'Umar? He said: I weep because Chosroes is in silk brocade, satin and silk (and silk), and Caesar in the like of that, and you are, as I see, the chosen one of Allah and His choice! He said: Do not weep, O 'Umar; for if I wished for the mountains to move as gold, they would move. And if the world were worth to Allah the wing of a mosquito, He would not have given a disbeliever any of it.'"
