161 – Muhammad ibn al-Ḥusayn related to me, saying: Abū ʿUmar al-Ḍarīr related to me, saying: a man from the Masʿūdiyyīn related to me, who said that ʿAwn ibn ʿAbdallāh declared: “The blossom of this world is a delusion, even were it bedecked with every ornament; the greatest good awaits tomorrow, in the Hereafter—and we stand between those who hasten forward and those who fall short.”
١٦١ - حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو عُمَرَ الضَّرِيرُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْمَسْعُودِيِّينَ قَالَ: قَالَ عَوُنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ: زَهْرَةُ الدُّنْيَا غُرُورٌ وَلَوْ تَحَلَّتْ بِكُلِّ زِينَةٍ وَالْخَيْرُ الْأَكْبَرِ غَدًا فِي الْآخِرَةِفَنَحْنُ بَيْنَ مُسَارِعٍ وَمُقَصِّرٍ
