Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) lay down on a mat made of date palm leaves and similar things, and its marks appeared on his side. When he woke up, I began to rub my hand over his side and said: O Messenger of Allah! Why did you not inform us? We would have spread (some bedding or something) for you on the mat. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“What have I to do with the world? What relation do I have with the world? My example and the example of the world is like that of a rider who sat under the shade of a tree (for a few moments to rest), and then left it and went on his way.”
