Al-Adab Al-Mufrad #449
Extravagance in Building
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ حَارِثَةَ بْنِ مُضَرِّبٍ، عَنْ خَبَّابٍ قَالَ: إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيُؤْجَرُ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، إِلا الْبِنَاءَ.
Khabbab said, "A man is rewarded for everything except building."
