Hadith 136
۞
8. Abu Ali al-Ash’ari has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from Fudayl ibn ‘Uthman from ibn abu Ya’fur from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following
“The case of a Muslim (believer) man is amazing. There is no decision that Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, makes about him but that it is in his best interest. Even if he is cut in pieces with scissors, still it is for his good. If he may possess the kingdom of the East and West of the earth, still it is for his good.”
8ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ فُضَيْلِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
عَجِبْتُ لِلْمَرْءِ الْمُسْلِمِ لا يَقْضِي الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُ قَضَاءً إِلا كَانَ خَيْراً لَهُ وَإِنْ قُرِّضَ بِالْمَقَارِيضِ كَانَ خَيْراً لَهُ وَإِنْ مَلَكَ مَشَارِقَ الأرْضِ وَمَغَارِبَهَا كَانَ خَيْراً لَهُ.
