It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered a sermon and said: "Guard yourselves against greed and avarice, for the nations before you were destroyed by this very greed. It commanded them to be miserly, so they became misers; it commanded them to sever ties of kinship, so they cut off their relations; and it commanded them to sin, so they fell into sins." The chain of this hadith is sahih, but the two Shaykhs did not record it; and Abu Kathir al-Zubaydi is one of the senior Tabi'un.
