حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُسْلِمٍ، قَالَ: نَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: نَا رَبِيعَةُ بْنُ كُلْثُومَ بْنِ جَبْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ عَامِرِ بْنِ وَاثِلَةَ، قَالَ:
كَانَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ يَخْطُبُنَا بِالْكُوفَةِ، فَيَقُولُ: الشَّقِيُّ مَنْ شَقِيَ فِي بَطْنِ أُمِّهِ، وَالسَّعِيدُ مَنْ سَعِدَ فِي بَطْنِ أُمِّهِ، فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ بْنُ أَسِيدٍ، رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ: عَجَبًا مِنْ أَمْرِ هَذَا، يَقُولُ: السَّعِيدُ مَنْ سَعِدَ فِي بَطْنِ أُمِّهِ، وَالشَّقِيُّ مَنْ شَقِيَ فِي بَطْنِ أُمِّهِ، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: يَا حُذَيْفَةُ وَمَا يُعْجِبُكَ مِنْ هَذَا ؟ ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَلَا أُحَدِّثُكَ بِالشِّفَاءِ مِنْ ذَاكَ ؟ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ الْحَدِيثَ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ مَلَكًا مُوَكَّلًا بِالرَّحِمِ، إِذَا أَرَادَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ يَخْلُقَ شَيْئًا بِإِذْنِ اللهِ، فَيَقُولُ: يَا رَبِّ أَجَلُهُ، فَيَقْضِي رَبُّكَ وَيَكْتُبُ الْمَلَكُ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: يَا رَبِّ رِزْقُهُ، فَيَقْضِي رَبُّكَ وَيَكْتُبُ الْمَلَكُ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: شَقِيٌّ أَمْ سَعِيدٌ ؟ فَيَقْضِي رَبُّكَ وَيَكْتُبُ الْمَلَكُ، فَيَكُونُ كَذَلِكَ، مَا زَادَ وَمَا نَقَصَ

✧ Abd Allah b. Mas'ud used to deliver sermons to us in Kufa, and he would say: "The wretched is one who was made wretched in his mother's womb, and the blessed is one who was made blessed in his mother's womb." Hudhayfa b. Asid, a man from the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ, said: "It is amazing concerning this man's statement. He says: 'The blessed is one who was made blessed in his mother's womb, and the wretched is one who was made wretched in his mother's womb.'" Abd Allah said: "O Hudhayfa, what amazes you about this?" Then he said: "Shall I tell you the explanation of that?" Then he raised the hadith and said: "Indeed, there is an angel entrusted with the womb. When God, the Mighty and Majestic, wills to create something, by God's permission, the angel says: 'O Lord, its lifespan?' So your Lord decrees and the angel writes. Then he says: 'O Lord, its sustenance?' So your Lord decrees and the angel writes. Then he says: 'Wretched or blessed?' So your Lord decrees and the angel writes. Thus it is, neither more nor less."
