hadith 4544
Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, ‘The person who wakes up in the morning and retires at night having worldly affairs as his greatest concern, Allah places poverty between his eyes, scatters his affairs, and he will not take from this world except what Allah has apportioned for him. As for the one who wakes up in the morning and retires at night having the Hereafter as his greatest concern, Allah places needlessness in his heart and brings together his affairs for him.
الإمامُ الصّادقُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): مَن أصبَحَ وأمسى والدنيا أكبَرُ هَمِّهِ جَعَلَ اللّهُ تعالى الفَقرَ بينَ عَينَيهِ وشَتَّتَ أمرَهُ ولم يَنَلْ مِن الدنيا إلّا ما قَسَمَ اللّهُ له ، ومَن أصبَحَ وأمسى والآخرةُ أكبَرُ هَمِّهِ جَعَلَ اللّهُ تعالى الغِنى في قلبِهِ وجَمَعَ لَهُ أمرَهُ .
