وَحَسْبُكَ دَاءً أَنْ تَبِيتَ بِبِطْنَةٍ * وَحَوْلَكَ أَكْبَادٌ تَحِنُّ إِلَى الْقِدِّ
Translation
It is enough for you to have a disease that you lie with your belly full while around you people may be badly yearning for dried leather.
Chapter (Bab)To the governor of Basra upon learning that he had accepted an invitation to a lavish banquet
