Bab 37
باب الزُّهْدِ فِي الدُّنْيَا ‏.‏
Chapter: Indifference towards this world

حَدَّثَنَا حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، أَنَّ دَرَّاجًا، حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ أَبِي الْهَيْثَمِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ ‏ “‏ مَنْ يَتَوَاضَعْ لِلَّهِ سُبْحَانَهُ دَرَجَةً يَرْفَعْهُ اللَّهُ بِهِ دَرَجَةً وَمَنْ يَتَكَبَّرْ عَلَى اللَّهِ دَرَجَةً يَضَعْهُ اللَّهُ بِهِ دَرَجَةً حَتَّى يَجْعَلَهُ فِي أَسْفَلِ السَّافِلِينَ ‏” ‏ ‏.‏

It was
narrated from Abu Sa’eed that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said: “Whoever humbles himself one degree for the sake of Allah, Allah
will raise him in status one degree, and whoever behaves arrogantly
towards Allah one degree, Allah will lower him in status one degree,
until He makes him among the lowest of the low.”
