Gifts of Knowledge

’Awn ibn ’Abdullaah, may Allaah have mercy on him, said, “I accompanied rich people and there was no one more depressed/sad than me, if I saw a man with a better garment than me and a better scent it would depress/grieve me—so I accompanied the poor and [finally] relaxed.”

Al-Hilyah, Tahdheebuhu, 2/95.
