حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، وَيَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، عَنْ قَيْسٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْمُسْتَوْرِدَ، أَخَا بَنِي فِهْرٍ يَقُولُ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " وَاللهِ مَا الدُّنْيَا فِي الْآخِرَةِ إِلَّا مِثْلُ مَا يَجْعَلُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِصْبَعَهُ هَذِهِ فِي الْيَمِّ، فَلْيَنْظُرْ بِمَ تَرْجِعُ " يَعْنِي الَّتِي تَلِي الْإِبْهَامَ (١)،

English translation
It is narrated from Mustawrid bin Shaddad (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: The relation of this world to the Hereafter is only as much as the drop that remains on the finger of any one of you when he dips it into the sea; when he dips this finger, then takes it out and sees how much water is on it. Saying this, the Prophet (ﷺ) pointed with his index finger.
