Dunya is a prison for the believer

الدُّنْيَا سِجْنُ الْمُؤْمِنِ وَجَنَّةُ الْكَافِرِ

Ad-dunya sijnu-l-mu'mini wa jannatu-l-kafir.

"The world is a prison for the believer and a paradise for the disbeliever."

Narrated by Abu Hurayrah. Sahih Muslim 2956

A short reflection

Calibrate the expectations. The cell of the believer feels like a cell because Jannah is the home. The freedom of the heedless feels like Jannah because the next state is worse.
