Original Arabic
وعن ابن عمر، رضي الله عنهما، قال: أخذ رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم بمنكبي، فقال:
كن في الدنيا كأنك غريب، أو عابر سبيل
. وكان ابن عمر، رضي الله عنهما، يقول: إذا أمسيت، فلا تنتظر الصباح، وإذا أصبحت لا تنتظر المساء، وخذ من صحتك لمرضك ومن حياتك لموتك. ((رواه البخاري)).

'Abdullah bin 'Umar (May allah be pleased with them) reported:
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) took hold of my shoulders and said, "Be in the world like a stranger or a wayfarer". Ibn 'Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) used to say: "When you survive till the evening, do not expect to live until the morning; and when you survive until the morning, do not expect to live until the evening; (do good deeds) when you are in good health before you fall sick, and (do good deeds) as long as you are alive before death strikes". [Al- Bukhari].
