Al-ZuhdIbn Abi al-Dunya

167 – ʿUbayd Allāh ibn Muḥammad narrated to me; Abū Usāmah transmitted; Mālik ibn Mighwal narrated from Sahl Abū al-Asad, who said: “It used to be said: The one who tries to amass for himself both the Hereafter and this world is like a servant with two masters—he never knows which of them to satisfy.”

١٦٧ - حَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، قَالَ: ثنا مَالِكُ بْنُ مِغْوَلٍ، عَنْ سَهْلِ أَبِي الْأَسَدِ، قَالَ: كَانَ يُقَالُ: مَثَلُ الَّذِي يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُجْمَعَ لَهُ الْآخِرَةُ وَالدُّنْيَا مَثَلُ عَبْدٍ لَهُ رَبَّانِ لَا يَدْرِي أَيَّهُمَا يُرْضِي
