Jabir b. Abdullah reported that Allah's Apostle ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) happened to walk through the bazar coming from the side of 'Aliya and the people were on both his sides. There he found a dead lamb with very short ears. He took hold of his ear and said: Who amongst you would like to have this for a dirham? They said: We do not like to have it even for less than that as it is of no use to us. He said: Do you wish to have it (free of any cost)? They said: By Allah, even if it were alive (we would not have liked to possess that), for there is defect in it as its ear is very short; now it is dead also. Thereupon Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: By Allah, this world is more insignificant in the eye of Allah than it (this dead lamb) is in your eye.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ بْنِ قَعْنَبٍ حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ بِلَالٍ عَنْ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَرَّ بِالسُّوقِ دَاخِلًا مِنْ بَعْضِ الْعَالِيَةِ وَالنَّاسُ كَنَفَتَهُ فَمَرَّ بِجَدْيٍ أَسَكَّ مَيِّتٍ فَتَنَاوَلَهُ فَأَخَذَ بِأُذُنِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَيُّكُمْ يُحِبُّ أَنَّ هَذَا لَهُ بِدِرْهَمٍ فَقَالُوا مَا نُحِبُّ أَنَّهُ لَنَا بِشَيْءٍ وَمَا نَصْنَعُ بِهِ قَالَ أَتُحِبُّونَ أَنَّهُ لَكُمْ قَالُوا وَاللَّهِ لَوْ كَانَ حَيًّا كَانَ عَيْبًا فِيهِ لِأَنَّهُ أَسَكُّ فَكَيْفَ وَهُوَ مَيِّتٌ فَقَالَ فَوَاللَّهِ لَلدُّنْيَا أَهْوَنُ عَلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ هَذَا عَلَيْكُمْ
  سلیمان بن بلال نے جعفر سے ، انھوں نے اپنے والد سے اور انھوں نے حضرت جابر بن عبداللہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ سے روایت کی کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ( مدینہ کی ) کسی بالائی جانب سے داخل ہوتے ہوئے بازار سے گزرے ، لوگ آپ کے پہلو میں ( آپ کے ساتھ چل رہے ) تھے ۔ آپ حقیر سے کانوں والے مرے ہوئے میمنے کے پاس سے گزرے ، آپ نے اسے کان سے پکڑ کر اٹھایا ، پھر فرمایا : تم میں سے کون اسے ایک درہم کے عوض لینا پسند کرے گا؟ " توانھوں ( صحابہ رضوان اللہ عنھم اجمعین ) نے کہا : ہمیں یہ کسی بھی چیز کے عوض لینا پسند نہیں ، ہم اسے لے کر کیا کریں گے؟آپ نے فرمایا : " ( پھر ) کیا تم پسند کرتے ہو کہ یہ تمھیں مل جائے؟ " انھوں ( صحابہ رضوان اللہ عنھم اجمعین ) نے عرض کی : اللہ کی قسم!اگر یہ زندہ ہوتاتو تب بھی اس میں عیب تھا ، کیونکہ ( ایک تو ) یہ حقیر سے کانوں والا ہے ( بھلانہیں لگتا ) ۔ پھر جب وہ مرا ہوا ہے تو کس کام کا؟ اس پر آ پ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا : " اللہ کی قسم!جتنا تمہارے نزدیک یہ حقیر ہے اللہ کے نزدیک دنیا اس سے بھی زیادہ حقیر ہے ۔ "
