Muwatta Malik, 424

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that if some one passed by Ata ibn Yasar in the mosque with something to trade, he would call him and ask, "What is the matter with you? What do you want?" If the man said that he wished to trade with him, he would say, "You need the market of this world. This is the market of the next world

On rapporta à Malek que quand un homme, venait vendre sa marchandise dans la mosquée, et passait près de Ata Ibn Yassar, il lui disait:«qu'as-tu à vendre? Que veux-tu» Si l'homme lui répondait qu'il venait lui vendre, il ripostait: «va vendre cela au marché de ce bas monde, ici, c'est le marché de la vie future»
