Hadith 178
۞
2-64 Abu Ahmad Muhammad ibn Ja’far al-Bandar al-Shafe’ee al-Furqany in Furqan narrated that Abul Abbas al-Himady quoted Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-Shafe’ee, on the authority of his uncle Ibrahim ibn Muhammad, on the authority of Ali ibn Abi Ali al-Lahabi, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Munkadir, on the authority of Jabir ibn Abdullah that God’s Prophet (MGB) said, “
What I am most afraid of for my nation is unattainable aspirations and unreachable hopes. Aspirations would hinder one from the truth and unreachable hopes would make one forget the Hereafter. The life in this world is to be ended while the life in the Hereafter is ahead of you. Each life has its own children. Try to be of the children of the Hereafter, if you can. Try not to be of the children of this world. Today you are alive, can do things and there is no Reckoning. However, tomorrow you will die and will be in the World of Reckoning where you cannot do anything.”
2-64 حدثنا أبوأحمد محمد بن جعفر البندار الشافعي الفرغاني بفرغانة قال: حدثنا أبوالعباس الحمادي قال: حدثنا أحمد بن محمد الشافعي قال: حدثنا عمي إبراهيم بن محمد قال: حدثنا علي بن أبي علي اللهبي، عن محمد بن المنكدر، عن جابر ابن عبد الله قال
قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله: إن أخوف ما أتخوف على امتي الهوى وطول الامل، أما الهوى فيصد عن الحق، وأما طول الامل فينسي الآخرة وهذه الدنيا مرتحلة ذاهبة وهذه الآخرة مرتحلة قادمة ولكل واحدة منهما بنون فان استطعتم أن تكونوا من أبناء الآخرة، ولا تكونوا من أبناء الدنيا فافعلوا، فانكم اليوم في دار العمل ولا حساب، وأنتم غدا في دار الحساب ولا عمل
