The Book of Miscellany — Hadith 66
Shaddad bin Aus (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "A wise man is the one who calls himself to account (and refrains from doing evil deeds) and does noble deeds to benefit him after death; and the foolish person is the one who subdues himself to his temptations and desires and seeks from Allah the fulfillment of his vain desires".[At-Tirmidhi, who categorized it as Hadith Hasan].
السابع: عن أبي يعلى شداد بن أوس رضي الله عنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: " الكيس من دان نفسه، وعمل لما بعد الموت ، والعاجز من أتبع نفسه هواها، وتمنى على الله" ((رواه الترمذي وقال حديث حسن)).
