Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَالْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ النَّصْرِيِّ، عَنْ نَهْشَلٍ، عَنِ الضَّحَّاكِ، عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ سَمِعْتُ نَبِيَّكُمْ، ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ مَنْ جَعَلَ الْهُمُومَ هَمًّا وَاحِدًا هَمَّ الْمَعَادِ كَفَاهُ اللَّهُ هَمَّ دُنْيَاهُ وَمَنْ تَشَعَّبَتْ بِهِ الْهُمُومُ فِي أَحْوَالِ الدُّنْيَا لَمْ يُبَالِ اللَّهُ فِي أَىِّ أَوْدِيَتِهِ هَلَكَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

‘Ali ibn Muhammad and al-Husayn ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman narrated to us; they said: ‘Abdullah ibn Numayr narrated to us, from Mu‘awiyah al-Nasri, from Nahshal, from al-Dahhak, from al-Aswad ibn Yazid, who said: ‘Abdullah said: I heard your Prophet (ﷺ) say: “Whoever makes all his concerns one concern—the concern of the Hereafter—Allah will suffice him against the concerns of this world. But whoever is pulled in many directions by worldly concerns, Allah will not care in which of its valleys he perishes.”
