Chapter: Indifference towards this world

حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَهْضَمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ دَاوُدَ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ زَائِدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي خَالِدٍ الْوَالِبِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ – وَلاَ أَعْلَمُهُ إِلاَّ قَدْ رَفَعَهُ – قَالَ ‏ “‏ يَقُولُ اللَّهُ سُبْحَانَهُ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ تَفَرَّغْ لِعِبَادَتِي أَمْلأْ صَدْرَكَ غِنًى وَأَسُدَّ فَقْرَكَ وَإِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلْ مَلأْتُ صَدْرَكَ شُغْلاً وَلَمْ أَسُدَّ فَقْرَكَ ‏” ‏ ‏.‏

(Abu)
Khalid Al-Walibi narrated from Abu Hurairah and he (one of the
narrators) said: “I do not know except that he attributed it to the
Prophet (ﷺ)” – “Allah says: ‘O son of Adam, devote yourself
to My
worship, and I will fill your heart with contentment and take
care of
your poverty; but if you do not do that, then I will fill
your heart
with worldly concerns and will not take care of your
poverty.’”
