باب الزُّهْدِ فِي الدُّنْيَا ‏.‏
Chapter: Indifference towards this world

حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، أَنْبَأَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ كَانَ يُحَدِّثُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ ‏:‏ ‏ “‏ إِنَّمَا نَسَمَةُ الْمُؤْمِنِ طَائِرٌ يَعْلُقُ فِي شَجَرِ الْجَنَّةِ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ إِلَى جَسَدِهِ يَوْمَ يُبْعَثُ ‏” ‏ ‏.‏

It was
narrated from ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Ka’b Al-Ansari that his father
used to narrate that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The
believer’s soul is a bird that eats from the trees of Paradise,
until
it will be returned to his body on the Day when he is
resurrected.”
