Al-'Ankabut 29:41
مَثَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّخَذُوا۟ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ أَوْلِيَآءَ كَمَثَلِ ٱلْعَنكَبُوتِ ٱتَّخَذَتْ بَيْتًا ۖ وَإِنَّ أَوْهَنَ ٱلْبُيُوتِ لَبَيْتُ ٱلْعَنكَبُوتِ ۖ لَوْ كَانُوا۟ يَعْلَمُونَ

Mathalu allatheena ittakhathoomin dooni Allahi awliyaa kamathali alAAankabootiittakhathat baytan wa-inna awhana albuyooti labaytualAAankabooti law kanoo yaAAlamoon

The example of those who take allies other than Allāh is like that of the spider who takes [i.e., constructs] a home. And indeed, the weakest of homes is the home of the spider, if they only knew.

The likeness of those who take protectors other than Allah is the spider, which builds itself a house. The weakest of houses is the house of the spider.

Sahih Muslim 1631

Three deeds that outlive you

إِذَا مَاتَ ابْنُ آدَمَ انْقَطَعَ عَنْهُ عَمَلُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ ثَلَاثٍ: صَدَقَةٍ جَارِيَةٍ، أَوْ عِلْمٍ يُنْتَفَعُ بِهِ، أَوْ وَلَدٍ صَالِحٍ يَدْعُو لَهُ

Idha mata-bnu Adama-nqata'a anhu amaluhu illa min thalath: sadaqatin jariyah, aw ilmin yuntafa'u bih, aw waladin salihin yad'u lah.

When the son of Adam dies, his deeds come to an end except for three: an ongoing charity, knowledge people benefit from, and a righteous child who supplicates for him.

Narrated by Abu Hurayrah.
