عن أبي ذر رضي الله عنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم قال الزهادة في الدنيا ليست بتحريم الحلال ولا إضاعة المال ولكن الزهادة في الدنيا أن لا تكون بما في يديك أوثق مما في يدي الله وأن تكون في ثواب المصيبة إذا أنت أصبت بها أرغب فيها لو أنها أبقيت لك (سنن الترمذي #2340)

Hazrat Abu Zar (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) narrates that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said, “Abstention from the Dunya is neither (for one) to regard that which is halaal as haraam, nor (for one) to dispose of (all his) wealth. Rather, true abstention from the Dunya is that your reliance on that which is in Allah’s hands is greater than your reliance on that which is in your hands, and when you are receiving reward for a calamity that is inflicted upon you (through being pleased with the decree of Allah Ta‘ala and making sabr over it), then you are more pleased and happy (with the decision of Allah and His reward) while undergoing the trial, compared to if the trial had to be removed and you had not experienced that condition.”
