63 – Maḥmūd ibn Khidāsh narrated to us; Ashʿath ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān narrated to us; Ḥammād—an elder from the people of Kūfa—narrated to us, from al-Ḥasan, who said: I heard him say, “The world is only three days: yesterday, which has passed with all that was in it; tomorrow, which you may never live to see; so consider well what you are doing in your today.”
٦٣ - حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خِدَاشِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَشْعَثُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، شَيْخٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ: " إِنَّمَا الدُّنْيَا ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ: مَضَى أَمْسِ بِمَا فِيهِ، وَغَدًا لَعَلَّكَ لَا تُدْرِكُهُ، فَانْظُرْ مَا أَنْتَ عَامَلٌ فِي يَوْمِكَ "
