حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصٌ ، وَأَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ (ح) وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، كِلاَهُمَا عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ (ح) وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الأَشَجُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: لأَنْ يَمْتَلِئَ جَوْفُ الرَّجُلِ قَيْحًا يَرِيهِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ يَمْتَلِئَ شِعْرًا. قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: إِلاَّ أَنَّ حَفْصًا لَمْ يَقُلْ يَرِيهِ.
It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: 'If the belly of the man were to be filled with pus that corrodes it, that would be better than being filled with poetry."' Abu Bakr (Ibn Abi Shaibah) said: "But Hafs did not say: 'corrodes it."'

"When a person dies, his works end, except for three: ongoing charity, knowledge that is benefited from, and a righteous child who prays for him."
Prophet Mohammed (PBUH)
"The best of what a man leaves behind are three: a righteous child who supplicates for him, ongoing charity the reward of which reaches him, and knowledge that is acted upon after him."
Sunan Ibn Mājah
"Every day two angels come down from Heaven and one of them says, 'O Allah! Compensate every person who spends in Your Cause,' and the other (angel) says, 'O Allah! Destroy every miser.'"
