Today I saw a saying of Prophet Muhammad, which states:

" If this world and whatever in it were worth even a wing of a mosquito,
in the eyes of Allah, He would not have allowed even a drop of water
to someone who rejects faith in Him! "
Reported by Tirmizi

Worthlessness of this world compared to hereinafter is a common
theme in 3 Divine religions, emanating from Abraham's Monotheism,
so I wonder, if there is any parallel saying in Judaism or Christianity?
Mfh H,

You have got it wrong. The hadith says that God gives the wealth and success of this world to non believers, because in His eyes, it has no value compared to hereinafter. So even if you are an atheist you will get a life full of pleasures of this world, till your life time, but you will have no share in the hereinafter. What is wrong about it?
 
Luke 16:11 If therefore you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches.

Do not rejoice, O Israel; do not be jubilant like other nations. For you have been unfaithful to your God; you love the wages of a prostitute at every threshing floor. Hosea 9

What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul? Mtthew 16:26
 
Don't accept anything as true until you have determined it for your self ! "I have given you the eyes with which to see, the ears with which to hear, and a brain. Use them!!!
Koran!
 
Not sure but it is not a very nice saying. Basically saying someone who does not believe is worth nothing or this world is worth nothing.

Sorry i am a atheist and definitely worth something and this life is worth something. You do not know nor can you prove that there is any heaven or afterlife at all, so you need to value this life all the more.

Everyone is valuable and this verse is not tolerant and is a example of why the Islamic faith can be very bad.
