Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 6117a
✧ Hamza with Nun
"إِنَّ أحَدَكم لو كان له وادٍ ملآنُ -ما بين أَعْلَاهُ إِلى أَسفلِه- أحبَّ أن يُملأَ له وادٍ آخر، فإِن مُلِئَ لهُ الوادِى الآخرُ فانطلق يمشى فوجدَ واديًا آخرَ قال: أمَا واللَّهِ لَئِن اسْتطَعْت لأملأنَّكَ، وإِن الرجلَ لا تمتلئُ نفسُه من المال حتَّى تمتلئَ من التُّراب ".

"Indeed, if one of you had a valley full of gold, from its top to its bottom, he would love for another valley to be filled for him. If another valley were filled for him, he would walk on and find yet another valley, and he would say: 'By Allah, if I could, I would fill you as well.' Indeed, a person's soul will not be filled with wealth until it is filled with dust."
