Sahih Muslim 2959a

حَدَّثَنِي سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ مَيْسَرَةَ، عَنِ الْعَلاَءِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي، هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ يَقُولُ الْعَبْدُ مَالِي مَالِي إِنَّمَا لَهُ مِنْ مَالِهِ ثَلاَثٌ مَا أَكَلَ فَأَفْنَى أَوْ لَبِسَ فَأَبْلَى أَوْ أَعْطَى فَاقْتَنَى وَمَا سِوَى ذَلِكَ فَهُوَ ذَاهِبٌ وَتَارِكُهُ لِلنَّاسِ ‏"‏ .

Narrator: Abu Huraira

English translation
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: A servant says, My wealth. my wealth, but out of his wealth three things are only his: whatever he eats and makes use of or by means of which he dresses himself and it wears out or he gives as charity, and this is what he stored for himself (as a reward for the Hereafter), and what is beyond this (it is of no use to you) because you are to depart and leave it for other people

সুওয়াইদ ইবনু সাঈদ (রহঃ) ..... আবু হুরাইরাহ্ (রাযিঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেন, বান্দাগণ বলে, আমার মাল আমার সম্পদ। অথচ তিনটিই হলো তার মাল, যা সে খেয়ে নিঃশেষ করে দিল। অথবা যা সে পরিধান করে পুরাতন করে দিল। কিংবা যা সে দান করল এবং সঞ্চয়* করল (*আখিরাতের প্রতিদান হিসাবে)। এছাড়া অবশিষ্টগুলো তার থেকে চলে যাবে এবং তা মানুষের জন্য রেখে যেতে হবে। (ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশন ৭১৫৪, ইসলামিক সেন্টার)
