حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَطَاءُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ الْخَفَّافُ حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنْ سُرَاقَةَ بْنِ جُعْشُمٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ
يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ الْعَمَلُ فِيمَا جَفَّ بِهِ الْقَلَمُ وَجَرَتْ بِهِ الْمَقَادِيرُ أَوْ فِي أَمْرٍ مُسْتَقْبَلٍ قَالَ بَلْ فِيمَا جَفَّ بِهِ الْقَلَمُ وَجَرَتْ بِهِ الْمَقَادِيرُ وَكُلٌّ مُيَسَّرٌ لِمَا خُلِقَ لَهُ

"I said: 'O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, is one's deed in that which has already dried of the Pen and what has passed of the Divine Decree, or is it in the future?' He said: 'No, it is in that which he already dried of the Pen and what has passed of the Divine Decree, and each person is facilitated for what he has been created.'"

What scholars said about it
In their own words, as Hadith Unlocked records them. They are shown, not summarised into a grade.
- أحمد بن أبي بكر بن إسماعيل البوصيري
في إسناده مقال فإن مجاهدا لم يسمع من سراقة فلزم الانقطاع وعطاء مختلف فيه
machine translationThere is some criticism (maqāl) of its chain of transmission, for Mujāhid did not hear from Surāqah, so there is necessarily a break (inqiṭāʿ), and ʿAṭāʾ is disputed.
