Chapter: Indifference towards this world
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بِشْرٍ، : بَكْرُ بْنُ خَلَفٍ وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ خَلاَّدٍ الْبَاهِلِيُّ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ أَبِي يَعْلَى، عَنِ الرَّبِيعِ بْنِ خُثَيْمٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ : أَنَّهُ خَطَّ خَطًّا مُرَبَّعًا وَخَطًّا وَسَطَ الْخَطِّ الْمُرَبَّعِ وَخُطُوطًا إِلَى جَانِبِ الْخَطِّ الَّذِي وَسَطَ الْخَطِّ الْمُرَبَّعِ وَخَطًّا خَارِجًا مِنَ الْخَطِّ الْمُرَبَّعِ فَقَالَ : ” أَتَدْرُونَ مَا هَذَا ” . قَالُوا : اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ . قَالَ : ” هَذَا الإِنْسَانُ الْخَطُّ الأَوْسَطُ وَهَذِهِ الْخُطُوطُ إِلَى جَنْبِهِ الأَعْرَاضُ تَنْهَشُهُ أَوْ تَنْهَسُهُ مِنْ كُلِّ مَكَانٍ فَإِنْ أَخْطَأَهُ هَذَا أَصَابَهُ هَذَا وَالْخَطُّ الْمُرَبَّعُ الأَجَلُ الْمُحِيطُ وَالْخَطُّ الْخَارِجُ الأَمَلُ ” .
It was
narrated from ‘Abdullah bin Mas’ud that the Prophet (ﷺ) drew
a
square, and a line in the middle of the square, and lines to the
side
of the line in the middle of the square, and a line outside the
square, and he said: “Do you know what this is?” They said:
“Allah and
His Messenger know best.” He said: “Man is the line
in the middle, and
these lines to his side are the sicknesses and
problems that assail
him from all places. If one misses him, another
will befall him. The
square is his life span, at his neck; and the
line outside it is (his)
hope.”
