حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذٌ: ثَنَا شَاذٌّ، قَالَ: ثَنَا عُمَرُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَسَّانَ، عَنْ نَاجِيَةَ بْنِ كَعْبٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
الْعَبْدُ يُولَدُ مُؤْمِنًا، وَيَعِيشُ مُؤْمِنًا، وَيَمُوتُ مُؤْمِنًا، وَالْعَبْدُ يُولَدُ كَافِرًا، وَيَعِيشُ كَافِرًا، وَيَمُوتُ كَافِرًا، وَالْعَبْدُ يَعْمَلُ بُرْهَةً مِنْ دَهْرِهِ بِالسَّعَادَةِ، ثُمَّ يُدْرِكُهُ مَا كُتِبَ لَهُ، فَيَمُوتُ كَافِرًا، وَالْعَبْدُ يَعْمَلُ بُرْهَةً مِنْ دَهْرِهِ بِالشَّقَاءِ، ثُمَّ يُدْرِكُهُ مَا كُتِبَ لَهُ، فَيَمُوتُ سَعِيدًا

✧ A servant is born a believer, lives a believer, and dies a believer; and a servant is born a disbeliever, lives a disbeliever, and dies a disbeliever; and a servant works for a period of his life with felicity, then what was written for him overtakes him, and he dies a disbeliever; and a servant works for a period of his life with wretchedness, then what was written for him overtakes him, and he dies felicitous.
