وَحَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ: نَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، وَوَكِيعٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ:
إِنَّ خَلْقَ أَحَدِكُمْ يُجْمَعُ فِي بَطْنِ أُمِّهِ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا، ثُمَّ يَكُونُ عَلَقَةً مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ يَكُونُ مُضْغَةً مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ يَبْعَثُ اللهُ إِلَيْهِ الْمَلَكَ فَيُؤْمَرُ بِأَرْبَعِ كَلِمَاتٍ، فَيُقَالُ: اكْتُبْ 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 مَا يَكُونُ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَهَا إِلَّا ذِرَاعٌ فَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ - أَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ: فَيَدْخُلُهَا

✧ Indeed, the creation of one of you is gathered in his mother's belly for forty days, then he becomes a clinging clot (ʿalaqah) for the like of that, then he becomes a lump of flesh (muḍghah) for the like of that. Then Allah sends to him the angel, and he is commanded with four words, and it is said: write down his term, his deeds, his provision, and whether he is wretched or blessed. Then indeed one of you performs the deeds of the people of Paradise until there is between him and it only a cubit, then the decree overtakes him, so he performs the deeds of the people of the Fire and enters it. And indeed a man performs the deeds of the people of the Fire until there is between him and it only a cubit, then the decree overtakes him, so he performs the deeds of the people of Paradise — I think he said — and enters it.
