حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ مُطَرِّفِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الشِّخِّيرِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّهُ انْتَهَی إِلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَقْرَأُ أَلْهَاکُمْ التَّکَاثُرُ قَالَ يَقُولُ ابْنُ آدَمَ مَالِي مَالِي وَهَلْ لَکَ مِنْ مَالِکَ إِلَّا مَا تَصَدَّقْتَ فَأَمْضَيْتَ أَوْ أَکَلْتَ فَأَفْنَيْتَ أَوْ لَبِسْتَ فَأَبْلَيْتَ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَی هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَن صَحِيحٌ
جامع ترمذی · Hadith 3354
Mutarrif bin Abdullah bin Ash-Shikh-khir reported from his father, : that he went to the Prophet and he was reciting: ‘The mutual rivalry (for piling up worldly things) diverts you.’ He said: “The son of Adam says: ‘My wealth, my wealth.’ And do you own anything except what you give in charity, such that you’ve spent it, or what you eat, suc that you’ve finished it, or you wear, such that you’ve worn it out?”
