“I had built a house to shelter
me
from the rain and the sun, during the time of Allah’s Messenger
(ﷺ), and no creature of Allah helped me in building it.”
Sunan Ibn Majah Book 37, Hadith 63
← Previous Hadith
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) passed
by a
dome-shaped structure at the door of a man among the Ansar and
said:
‘What is this? ‘They said: ‘A dome that was built by
so-and-so.’
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘All wealth that
is like this
(extravagant) will bring evil consequences to its owner
on the Day of
Resurrection.’ News of that reached the Ansari, so he
demolished it.
Then the Prophet (ﷺ) passed by (that place) later on
and did not see
it. He asked about it and was told that its owner had
demolished it
because of what he had heard from him. He said: ‘May
Allah have mercy
on him, may Allah have mercy on him.’”

to
visit him (when he was sick), and he said: ‘I have been sick for a
long time, and were it not that I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
say: “Do not wish for death,” I would have wished for it.’ And
he
said: “A person will be rewarded for all his spending, except
for
(what he spends) on dust,” or he said, “on building.”
