Hadith 956
Hadith.5912 - Al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Faddal narrated from Maysar that Abu Abdullah Imam Al-Sadiq Ja'far ibn Muhammad (as) said
"Indeed, among what was revealed in the divine revelation from the heavens is that if the son of Adam had two flowing valleys of gold and silver, he would still seek a third. O' son of Adam! Your stomach is but an ocean among oceans and a valley among valleys; nothing will fill it except dust."
5912 - وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ مُيَسِّرٍ قَالَ
قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : "إِنَّ فِيمَا نَزَلَ بِهِ اَلْوَحْيُ مِنَ اَلسَّمَاءِ لَوْ أَنَّ لاِبْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَيْنِ يَسِيلاَنِ ذَهَباً وَ فِضَّةً لاَبْتَغَى إِلَيْهِمَا ثَالِثاً يَا اِبْنَ آدَمَ إِنَّمَا بَطْنُكَ بَحْرٌ مِنَ اَلْبُحُورِ وَ وَادٍ مِنَ اَلْأَوْدِيَةِ لاَ يَمْلَأُهُ شَيْءٌ إِلاَّ اَلتُّرَابُ".
