فِي مُنَاجَاةِ مُوسَى ( عليه السلام ) يَا مُوسَى إِنَّ الدُّنْيَا دَارُ عُقُوبَةٍ عَاقَبْتُ فِيهَا آدَمَ عِنْدَ خَطِيئَتِهِ وَ جَعَلْتُهَا مَلْعُونَةً مَلْعُونٌ مَا فِيهَا إِلَّا مَا كَانَ فِيهَا لِي يَا مُوسَى إِنَّ عِبَادِيَ الصَّالِحِينَ زَهِدُوا فِي الدُّنْيَا بِقَدْرِ عِلْمِهِمْ وَ سَائِرَ الْخَلْقِ رَغِبُوا فِيهَا بِقَدْرِ جَهْلِهِمْ وَ مَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ عَظَّمَهَا فَقَرَّتْ عَيْنَاهُ فِيهَا وَ لَمْ يُحَقِّرْهَا أَحَدٌ إِلَّا انْتَفَعَ بِهَا .
Translation
And by this chain, from Al Minqary, from Hafs Bin Giyas, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘In the Manifesto of Musa<sup>as</sup> (it was): “O Musa<sup>as</sup>! The world is a house of Punishment. Adam<sup>as</sup> was Punished during his<sup>as</sup> error, and I<sup>azwj</sup> Made it to be Accursed. Accursed is whatever therein except for what there was in it (performed) for Me<sup>azwj</sup>”. O Musa<sup style="font-weight: normal">as</sup>! My<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> righteous servant are being ascetic in the world in accordance to their knowledge, and the rest of the creatures are desiring with regards to it in accordance with their ignorance; and there is no one who magnifies it (the world) and his eyes would be delighted in it, and no one would belittle it except that he would benefit from it’.
