حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُجَالِدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنِ الْمُسْتَوْرِدِ بْنِ شَدَّادٍ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ فِي رَكْبٍ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ، إِذْ مَرَّ بِسَخْلَةٍ مَيْتَةٍ مَنْبُوذَةٍ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَتَرَوْنَ هَذِهِ هَانَتْ عَلَى أَهْلِهَا؟ " فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مِنْ هَوَانِهَا أَلْقَوْهَا، قَالَ: " فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمِّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَلدُّنْيَا أَهْوَنُ عَلَى اللهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ عَلَى أَهْلِهَا " (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Mustawrid bin Shaddad (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I was in the caravan of the Prophet (ﷺ) when he passed by a dead goat whose skin had been removed and it had been thrown away. The Prophet (ﷺ) asked, "Do you think that its owner considered this goat insignificant?" They replied, "O Messenger of Allah! They threw it away only because they considered it insignificant." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "By Him in Whose hand is the life of Muhammad (ﷺ), as insignificant as this goat is in the eyes of its owner, the world is even more insignificant in the sight of Allah."
