حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ أَبِي الشَّوَارِبِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي بِشْرٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ، قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ عَنِ الشُّرْبِ فِي آنِيَةِ الذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ وَقَالَ ‏ "‏ هِيَ لَهُمْ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَهِيَ لَكُمْ فِي الآخِرَةِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Context

In this narration, the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) prohibits drinking from gold and silver vessels, indicating that such items are reserved for the disbelievers in this world. This guidance serves to remind Muslims of the importance of humility and the distinction between worldly luxuries and spiritual values, emphasizing that true reward lies in the hereafter.

Modern Application

This principle can be applied today by encouraging individuals to prioritize modesty and humility over materialism. It serves as a reminder to choose utensils and possessions that reflect a commitment to Islamic values rather than societal trends that may lead to arrogance.
