Hadith 33:1306

Ibn Idris narrated to us, from his father, from al-Minhal, from Shaqiq ibn Salamah, who said: We entered upon Khabbab to visit him, and he said: "In this coffin [chest] are eighty thousand [dirhams], I did not tie them with a thread, nor did I withhold them from a seeker." They said: "Why are you weeping?" He said: "My companions have passed on, and the world did not diminish anything from them, and we have remained until we find no place for it except the dust."

حدثنا بن إدريس عن أبيه عن المنهال عن شقيق بن سلمة قال دخلنا على خباب نعوده فقال في هذا التابوت ثمانون ألفا ما شددتها بخيط ولا منعتها من سائل فقالوا علام تبكي قال مضى أصحابي ولم تنقصهم الدنيا شيئا وبقينا حتى ما نجد لها موضعا إلا التراب
