Home Hadith Hadith 6176
I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "A (small) place equal to an area occupied by a whip in Paradise is better
than the (whole) world and whatever is in it; and an undertaking (journey) in the forenoon or in the
afternoon for Allah's Cause, is better than the whole world and whatever is in it."

`Abdullah bin `Umar said, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) took hold of my shoulder and said, 'Be in this world as if
you were a stranger or a traveler." The sub-narrator added: Ibn `Umar used to say, "If you survive till

expect to be alive in the evening, and take from your health for your sickness, and (take) from your
life for your death."
