عن ابن بريدة عن أبيه قال: جاء رجل إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وعليه خاتم من حديد فقال: ما لي أرى عليك حلية أهل النار؟ ثم جاءه وعليه خاتم من صفر فقال: ما لي أجد منك ريح الأصنام؟ ثم أتاه وعليه خاتم من ذهب فقال: ارم عنك حلية أهل الجنة؟ قال: من أي شيء أتخذه؟ قال: من ورق ولا تتمه مثقالا (سنن الترمذي، الرقم: 1785، وقال هذا حديث غريب)
