9.ʿAbdullāh ibn al-Mughīrah narrated from Ṭalḥah ibn Zayd, from Abū ʿAbdillāh who said,

“This world appeared to ʿĪsā in the for of a blue-eyed woman. He asked her, ‘How many have you married?’ She said, ‘Many.’ He asked, ‘Did you divorce them all?’ She said, ‘Rather, I killed them all!’ He said, ‘Then woe to your remaining spouses! How can they not take lesson from those who have passed?’” Abū ʿAbdillāh [then] said, “The example of this world is like the salty sea – every time a thirsty person drinks from it, it increases his thirst, until it kills him.”
