125. hadíth

فضالة عن داود بن فرقد قال: قلت لأبي عبد الله عليه السلام ما يسرني بحقكم الدنيا وما فيها فقال: أف للدنيا وما فيها وما هي يا داود هل هي الا ثوبان وملاء بطنك؟

3.Faḍālah narrated from Dāwūd ibn Farqad who said, “I told Abū ʿAbdillāh (a), ‘By your right,[1] this world and what it contains does not please me.’ He said, ‘Fie upon this world and what it contains! And what is it O Dāwūd? Is it anything other than two pieces of cloth and that which fills your belly?’”
