وَحَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْأَهْوَازِيُّ قَالَ: نَا عَامِرُ بْنُ مُدْرِكٍ قَالَ: نَا عُتْبَةُ بْنُ يَقْظَانَ، عَنْ حَمَّادٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ أَخْوَالِهِ يَعْنِي عَلْقَمَةَ، وَالْأَسْوَدَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ:

" إِنَّ خَلْقَ أَحَدِكُمْ يُجْمَعُ فِي بَطْنِ أُمِّهِ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا، ثُمَّ يَكُونُ عَلَقَةً مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، أَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ: ثُمَّ يَكُونُ مُضْغَةً مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ يَبْعَثُ اللهُ إِلَيْهِ الْمَلَكَ، فَيُؤْمَرُ بِأَرْبَعِ كَلِمَاتٍ، فَيُقَالُ: اكْتُبْ لَهُ أَجَلَهُ، وَعَمَلَهُ، وَرِزْقَهُ، وَشَقِيٌّ أَوْ سَعِيدٌ، فَإِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ لَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ حَتَّى مَا يَكُونُ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَهَا إِلَّا ذِرَاعٌ فَيَسْبِقُ عَلَيْهِ الْكِتَابُ فَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ النَّارِ فَيَدْخُلُهَا، وَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ النَّارِ حَتَّى يَكُونَ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَهَا إِلَّا ذِرَاعٌ فَيَسْبِقُ عَلَيْهِ الْكِتَابُ فَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ، أَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ: فَيَدْخُلُهَا

✧ "The creation of one of you is gathered in his mother's womb for forty days, then he becomes a clinging clot for the like of that—I think he said—then he becomes a lump of flesh for the like of that. Then Allah sends the angel to him, and he is commanded with four words, and it is said: 'Write his term, his deeds, his provision, and whether he is wretched or blessed.' One of you may do the deeds of the people of Paradise until there is but a cubit between him and it, then the writing overtakes him and he does the deeds of the people of the Fire and enters it. And a man may do the deeds of the people of the Fire until there is but a cubit between him and it, then the writing overtakes him and he does the deeds of the people of Paradise—I think he said—and he enters it."
