140 - Abū Muslim narrated to us: Sufyān narrated to us, from ʿIkrima, from Ibn ʿAbbās, who said: "If you were to take silver from the silver of the people of the world and beat it until you made it like the wing of a fly, you would not see water from behind it. But the flasks of Paradise are in the whiteness of silver and the clarity of a flask."

١٤٠ - حدثنا أبو مسلم حدثنا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ لَوْ أَخَذَتَ فِضَّةً مِنْ فِضَّةِ أَهْلِ الدُّنْيَا فَضَرَبْتَهَا حَتَّى جَعَلْتَهَا مِثْلَ جَنَاحِ الذُّبَابِ لَمْ تَرَ الْمَاءَ مِنْ وَرَائِهَا وَلَكِنَّ قَوَارِيرَ الْجَنَّةِ فِي بَيَاضِ الْفِضَّةِ وَصَفَاءِ الْقَارُورَةِ.
