Asma bint Umays al-Khath'amiyyah reported that the Messenger of Allah said: “What a wretched servant is the one who prides himself and struts, forgetting the Most Great and Exalted. What a wretched servant is the one who acts arrogantly and transgresses, forgetting the Almighty, the Most High. What a wretched servant is the one who is heedless and distracted, forgetting the graves and decay. What a wretched servant is the one who is insolent and overbearing, forgetting his beginning and his end. What a wretched servant is the one who uses religion as a means to gain the world. What a wretched servant is the one who undermines religion with doubtful arguments. What a wretched servant is the one led by greed. What a wretched servant is the one led astray by desire. What a wretched servant is the one humiliated by his ambitions.” Abu Isa graded this report gharib, known only through this route, and said its chain is not strong.
