Imam Sadiq (a.s) was questioned about abstinence in this world. He said: “God has established bounds for abstinence and has said: “In order that ye may not despair over matters that pass you by, nor exult over favors bestowed upon you.” [The Holy Quran: Hadid 57:23]
قيل للصادق (صلى الله عليه وآله): ما الزهد في الدنيا؟ قال: قد حد الله ذلك في كتابه فقال: ﴿لكيلا تأسوا على ما فاتكم ولا تفرحوا بما آتاكم﴾.
