Ibn Majah
Da'if (Darussalam)
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبِ بْنِ عَرَبِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ لَيْثٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ أَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ بِبَعْضِ جَسَدِي فَقَالَ ‏‏ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ كُنْ فِي الدُّنْيَا كَأَنَّكَ غَرِيبٌ أَوْ كَأَنَّكَ عَابِرُ سَبِيلٍ وَعُدَّ نَفْسَكَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْقُبُورِ ‏"‏ ‏‏
It was narrated that Ibn "Umar said:
"The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) took hold of some part of my body and said: "O "Abdullah, be in this world like a stranger, or one who is passing through, and consider yourself as one of the people of the graves.'"
