Chapter on Reliance on Allah and Patience

Zujajat al-Masabih 5091Volume 4

English

Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The strong believer is better and more beloved to Allah than the weak believer, and in both 1 is good. Strive for what benefits you, and seek help from Allah, and do not be incapacitated. If something befalls you, do not say: If I had done such and such, it would have been so and so, but say: Allah has decreed, and what He willed, He did; for 2 'if' opens the work of Satan."

٥٠٩١ - وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ (رضي الله عنه) قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: «الْمُؤْمِنُ الْقَوِيُّ خَيْرُ وَأَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِ الضَّعِيفِ، وَفِي كُلٌّ 1 خَيْرُ احْرِصْ عَلَى مَا يَنْفَعُكَ، وَاسْتَعِنْ بِاللَّهِ، وَلَا تَعْجَزْ وَإِنْ أَصَابَكَ شَيْءٌ فَلَا تَقُلْ: لَوْ أَنِّي فَعَلْتُ كَانَ كَذَا وَكَذَا، وَلَكِنْ قُلْ: قَدَّرُ اللَّهُ، وَمَا شَاءَ فَعَلَ؛ فَإِنَّ ) «لَوْ» تَفْتَحُ عَمَلَ الشَّيْطَانِ. رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ.

سیدنا ابوہریرہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ سے روایت ہے، رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا: طاقتور مسلمان، بہتر ہے اور زیادہ پسند ہے اللہ کو اس مسلمان سے جو کمزور ہے اور ہر مسلمان میں بھلائی ہے2، تم حرص کرو اس چیز کی جو تم کو نفع دے، اللہ سے مدد مانگو تھکو مت، اگر تم کو کوئی مصیبت پہنچے تو یہ مت کہو کہ اگر میں وہ کرتا تو ایسا ایسا ہوتا لیکن کہو اللہ نے مقدر کیا تھا اور وہ جو چاہا کیا؛ کیونکہ اگر مگر کا لفظ شیطان 3 کے عمل کو کھولتا ہے۔ (مسلم)۔

Commentary and footnotes (2)

Note 1

If I faced my past as I turned from it,

(1) His statement: And in both is good: Meaning the essence of good exists in both of them. (As stated in Al-Mirqat) (2) His statement: For 'if' opens the work, etc.: Meaning from opposing the decree and whispering, and that is if he speaks it in a way of opposing the decree, attributing power and strength to himself, and believing that to be true. Otherwise, it occurred from him in Hajj: "If I faced my past as I turned from it," to soothe the hearts of the companions. (As stated in Al-Lama'at).
