Put your trust in God alone; recognize His power and control over all things; understand the futility of worldly possessions compared to Him; recite poetry with caution.

This hadith, narrated by Abu Huraira, speaks about the vanity of all things apart from Allah. It states that the truest couplet recited by a poet is “Behold! Apart from Allah everything is vain” and that nothing should be added to it. This hadith emphasizes the importance of recognizing that only Allah has true power and control over all things in this world. It teaches us to put our trust in Him alone and not rely on any other thing or person for our needs or desires. We must remember that everything else will eventually pass away but only He remains forever.
