More beloved to me than this world and all that is in it

Reference: Siyar A’laam an-Nubalaa v3 p113

Fadhaalah ibn ‘Ubayd رحمه الله said:

For me to know that Allaah has accepted from me [a good deed equivalent to] the weight of a grain, is more beloved to me than this world and all that is in it. That is because He تعالى says:

{Indeed, Allaah only accepts from the righteous [who fear Him]}, al-Maa.idah 5:27
