حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا قَيْسُ بْنُ أَبِي حَازِمٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُسْتَوْرِدًا أَخَا بَنِي فِهْرٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ

مَا الدُّنْيَا فِي الآخِرَةِ إِلاَّ مِثْلُ مَا يَجْعَلُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِصْبَعَهُ فِي الْيَمِّ فَلْيَنْظُرْ بِمَاذَا يَرْجِعُ
