عن جابر رضي الله عنه ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم اتى العالية فمر بالسوق فمر بجدي اسك ميت فتناوله فرفعه ثم قال ((بكم تحبون ان هذا لكم)) قالوا ما نحب انه لنا بشيء وما نصنع به قال ((بكم تحبون ان هذا لكم)) قالوا والله لو كان حيا لكان عيبا فيه انه اسك فكيف وهو ميت قال ((فوالله للدنيا اهون على الله من هذا عليكم))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to the upper area and passed by a dead baby goat with small ears. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took hold of the kid and lifted it up, then said: "For how much would you like to buy this?" The people said: "We would not like to give anything for it. What would we do with it?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) again said: "For how much would you like to buy it?" The people said: "By Allah, even if it were alive, it would be considered defective because its ears are small, and now it is dead altogether." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "By Allah, the world is even more insignificant in the sight of Allah than this."
