If the Son of Adam Had Two Valleys of Wealth, He Would Want a Third
لَوْ كَانَ لاِبْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ مَالٍ لاَبْتَغَى ثَالِثًا، وَلاَ يَمْلأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلاَّ التُّرَابُ، وَيَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ
Transliteration
Law kana libni adama wadiyani min malin labtagha thalitha, wa la yamla'u jawfabni adama illat-turab, wa yatubullahu 'ala man tab
Translation
Narrated Ibn Abbas (RA): I heard the Prophet (SAW) say, "If the son of Adam had two valleys of wealth, he would long for a third, and nothing fills the belly of the son of Adam except dust. And Allah turns in forgiveness to whoever repents."
