حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ وَأَبُو النَّضْرِ قَالَا أَنَا الْمَسْعُودِيُّ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ ابْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ

مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ كَالْخَامَةِ مِنَ الزَّرْعِ تُفَيِّئُهَا الرِّيَاحُ، تَصْرَعُهَا مَرَّةً وَتَعْدِلُهَا أُخْرَى حَتَّى يَأْتِيَهُ أَجَلُهُ. وَمَثَلُ الْكَافِرِ مَثَلُ الْأَرْزَةِ الْمُجْذِيَةِ عَلَى أَصْلِهَا، لَا يُقِلُّهَا شَيْءٌ حَتَّى يَكُونَ انْجِعَافُهَا مَرَّةً

✧ The example of the believer is like a young plant of the crop which the winds bend; it throws it down once and straightens it another time until his term comes. The example of the disbeliever is like the cedar tree standing firm on its roots, nothing can shake it until it is uprooted all at once.
