Mishkat al-MasabihHadith Number 5283
وَعَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ مَالِكًا وَسُئِلَ أَيُّ شَيْءٍ الزُّهْدُ فِي الدُّنْيَا؟ قَالَ: طِيبُ الْكَسْبِ وَقِصَرُ الْأَمَلِ. رَوَاهُ الْبَيْهَقِيُّ فِي «شعب الْإِيمَان»
Zayd Ibn Husayin Narrated from:
I heard Maalik رحمه الله say, on being asked, 'What is it to practice Zuhd (abstinence) in the world?' - 'It is earning a pure livelihood and having few hopes.'" [2]
