[It was narrated from 'Abdullah bin Rubayyi'ah that he was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a journey and he heard the voice of a man calling the Adhan, and he said what he said. When he reached the words:

Ashhadu anna Muhammadan Rasul-Allah (I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah), - Al-Hakam said, "I did not hear this from Ibn Abi Lailah" - the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "This is a shepherd of a man who is away from his family." He went down into the valley and found a shepherd, standing by a dead sheep. He said: "Do you think that this is worthless to its owners?" They said: "Yes." He said: "This world is more worthless to Allah than this (dead sheep) is to its owners."]

أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ رُبَيِّعَةَ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ فَسَمِعَ صَوْتَ رَجُلٍ يُؤَذِّنُ حَتَّى إِذَا بَلَغَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - قَالَ الْحَكَمُ لَمْ أَسْمَعْ هَذَا عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى - قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ " إِنَّ هَذَا لَرَاعِي غَنَمٍ أَوْ رَجُلٌ عَازِبٌ عَنْ أَهْلِهِ " . فَهَبَطَ الْوَادِيَ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِرَاعِي غَنَمٍ وَإِذَا هُوَ بِشَاةٍ مَيِّتَةٍ قَالَ " أَتَرَوْنَ هَذِهِ هَيِّنَةً عَلَى أَهْلِهَا " . قَالُوا نَعَمْ . قَالَ " الدُّنْيَا أَهْوَنُ عَلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ عَلَى أَهْلِهَا " .
