حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ مُطَرِّفٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّهُ انْتَهَی إِلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ 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 حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ
جامع ترمذی · Hadith 2342
Mutarrif narrated from his father, that he met up with the Prophet (s.a.w) while he was saying: The mutual increase diverts you . He (s.a.w) said: The son of Adam says:'My wealth, my wealth, but is there something for you from your wealth besides what you give in charity that remains, or you eat which perishes, or what you wear that grows worn?
