حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ
أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ لِي خَادِمًا تَسْنِي - وَقَالَ مَرَّةً: تَسْنُو - عَلَى نَاضِحٍ لِي، وَإِنِّي كُنْتُ أَعْزِلُ عَنْهَا وَأُصِيبُ مِنْهَا، فَجَاءَتْ بِوَلَدٍ ! فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: مَا قَدَّرَ اللهُ لِنَفْسٍ أَنْ يَخْلُقَهَا إِلَّا هِيَ كَائِنَةٌ.

✧ A man from the Ansar came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: 'I have a servant who draws water — and once he said: draws water — for my watering camel, and I used to practice coitus interruptus with her and have intercourse with her, and she gave birth to a child!' The Messenger of God ﷺ said: 'Whatever God has destined for any soul to create, it will come to be.'
