حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ وَأَبُو سَعِيدٍ وَعَفَّانُ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ حَدَّثَنَا هِلَالٌ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ عُمَرُ وَهُوَ عَلَى حَصِيرٍ قَدْ أَثَّرَ فِي جَنْبِهِ فَقَالَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ لَوْ اتَّخَذْتَ فِرَاشًا أَوْثَرَ مِنْ هَذَا فَقَالَ مَا لِي وَلِلدُّنْيَا مَا مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا كَرَاكِبٍ سَارَ فِي يَوْمٍ صَائِفٍ فَاسْتَظَلَّ تَحْتَ شَجَرَةٍ سَاعَةً مِنْ نَهَارٍ ثُمَّ رَاحَ وَتَرَكَهَا
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 2744
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (RA) that 'Umar entered upon the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), when he was lying on a reed mat that had left marks on his side, and he said: O Prophet of Allah, why don't you have furnishings that are more comfortable than this? He said: "What do I have to do with this world? The likeness of me and this world is that of a rider who travels on a summer day, then seeks shade beneath a tree for a while during the day, then he moves on and leaves it."
