Al-ZuhdIbn Abi al-Dunya

93 – Abu Hudhayfah al-Fazari narrated to us; he said: Sufyan b. ʿUyaynah related to us; he said: Al-Zuhri was asked, “What is detachment from the world?” He replied, “It is for the unlawful never to overpower one’s patience, and for the lawful never to withhold one’s gratitude.” He explained: “In other words, it is to refrain from what is forbidden and to thank Allah for what is lawful.”

٩٣ - ثنا أَبُو حُذَيْفَةَ الْفَزَارِيُّ، قَالَ: ثنا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، قَالَ: قِيلَ لِلزُّهْرِيِّ: مَا الزُّهْدُ فِي الدُّنْيَا؟ قَالَ: مَنْ لَمْ يَغْلِبِ الْحَرَامُ صَبْرَهُ، وَلَمْ يَمْنَعِ الْحَلَالُ شُكْرَهُ، قَالَ: مَعْنَاهُ: مَنْ تَرَكَ الْحَرَامَ، وَشَكَرَ الْحَلَالَ
