وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «مَا زَهِدَ عَبْدُ فِي الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا أَنْبَتَ اللَّهُ الْحِكْمَةَ فِي قَلْبِهِ وَأَنْطَقَ لِسَانَهُ وَبَصَّرَهُ عَيْبَ الدُّنْيَا وَدَاءَهَا وَدَوَاءَهَا وَأَخْرَجَهُ مِنْهَا سَالِمًا إِلَى دَارِ السَّلَامِ» رَوَاهُ الْبَيْهَقِيُّ فِي «شعب الْإِيمَان»
Abu Dharr Narrated from:
Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "If anyone observes abstinence in this world (from worldly possession and position as is in excess of his wants) then Allah grows in his heart wisdom (which is Divine awareness and conviction) causes his tongue to speak it, makes him see the defects of this world (like grief, poverty, death, etc), its maladies and their remedy, and brings him out of it safely to dar us salaam the abode of peace)."
