Ali ibn Abi Talib said: ‘We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah in the mosque when Musab ibn Umair came in. He wore nothing but a cloak patched with fur. When the Messenger of Allah saw him, he wept, remembering the comforts Musab had once enjoyed and the state he was in then. The Messenger of Allah said, “What will your situation be when one of you goes out in the morning wearing one fine garment and returns in the evening wearing another, when a dish is set before him and another is taken away, and when you cover your houses as the Kaaba is covered?” They said, “Messenger of Allah, then we will be better off than we are today: we will devote ourselves to worship, and our needs will be taken care of.” He said, “You are better today than you will be then.”’ Abu Isa graded this hadith hasan. He clarified the identities of several narrators named Yazid ibn Ziyad.
