"عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: اليَقِينُ أَن لا تُرضِى النَّاس بِسَخَطِ اللهِ، وَلا تحْمدُ وَاحِدًا عَلَى رِزْقِ اللهِ، وَلا تَلُمْ أَحَدًا عَلى مَا لَمْ يُؤْتِكَ اللهُ، فَإنَّ الرِّزْقَ لَا يَسُوقُه حِرْصُ حَرِيصٍ، وَلا يَرُدُّه كَرَاهة كَارِهٍ، وَإنَّ اللهَ بِقسْطِهِ وَعِلْمِهِ وَحِكْمَتِهِ جَعَلَ الرُوحَ وَالفَرجَ فِى اليَقين وَالرِّضى، وَجَعَلَ الْهَمَّ والحزنَ فِى الشَّكَّ والسَّخَطِ".

"From Ibn Mas'ud who said: Certainty is that you do not please people by angering Allah, do not praise anyone for the provision of Allah, and do not blame anyone for what Allah has not given you. Indeed, provision is not driven by the greed of the greedy, nor is it turned away by the aversion of the averse. Indeed, Allah, by His justice, knowledge and wisdom, placed relief and joy in certainty and contentment, and placed worry and grief in doubt and discontent."
