89 لاتُخْلِفَنَّ وَراءَكَ شَيْئاً مِنَ الدُّنْيا فَإنَّكَ تُخَلِّفُهُ لأحَدِ رَجُلَيْنِ: إمّا رَجُل عَمِلَ فيهِ بِطاعَةِ اللّهِ فَسَعِدَ بِما شَقيتَ بِهِ، وإمّا رَجُل عَمِلَ فيهِ بِمَعْصيَةِ اللّهِ فَكُنْتَ عَوْناً لَهُ عَلَى المَعْصِيَةِ، ولَيْسَ أحَدُ هذَيْنِ حَقيقاً أنْ تُؤْثِرَهُ عَلى نَفْسِكَ.
