Transience of health and wealth

2020. hadíth

٤٢٦. وَقَالَ (عليه ‏السلام): لَا يَنْبَغِي لِلْعَبْدِ أَنْ يَثِقَ بِخَصْلَتَيْنِ: الْعَافِيَةِ، وَالْغِنَى: بَيْنَا تَرَاهُ مُعَافًى إِذْ سَقِمَ، وَبَيْنَا تَرَاهُ غَنِيّاً إِذِ افْتَقَرَ.

426. Amīr al-mu’minīn, peace be upon them, said: It does not behove a man to have trust in two positions, health and riches, because there is many a man whom you see healthy but he soon falls sick and many a man whom you see rich but soon turns destitute.
