حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ النَّضْرِ ثنا مُعَاوِيَةُ ثنا زَائِدَةُ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ قَالَ كُنَّا عِنْدَ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ فَذَكَرُوا رَجُلًا فَذَكَرُوا مِنْ خُلقِهِ فَقَالَ
الْقَوْمُ أَمَا لَهُ مَنْ يَأْخُذُ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ؟ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ «أَرَأَيْتُمْ لَوْ قُطِعَ رَأْسُهُ أَكُنْتُمْ تَسْتَطِيعُونَ أَنْ تَجْعَلُوا لَهُ رَأْسًا؟ أَوْ قُطِعَتْ يَدَاهُ أَكُنْتُمْ تَسْتَطِيعُونَ أَنْ تَجْعَلُوا لَهُ يَدًا؟ أَوْ قُطِعَتْ رِجْلُهُ أَكُنْتُمْ تَسْتَطِيعُونَ أَنْ تَجْعَلُوا لَهُ رِجْلًا؟» فَقَالُوا لَا فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ إِنَّ النُّطْفَةَ إِذَا وَقَعَتْ فِي الْمَرْأَةِ مَكَثَتْ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا ثُمَّ انْحَدَرَتْ دَمًا ثُمَّ تَكُونُ عَلَقَةً ثُمَّ تَكُونُ مُضْغَةً مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ يَبْعَثُ اللهُ الْمَلَكَ فَقَالَ اكْتُبْ أَجَلَهُ وَعَمَلَهُ وَرِزْقَهُ وَأَثَرَهُ وَشَقِيٌّ أَوْ سَعِيدٌ فَإِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تَسْتَطِيعُوا أَنْ تُغَيِّرُوا خُلُقَهُ حَتَّى تُغَيِّرُوا خَلْقَهُ

✧ The people said, "Is there no one to restrain him?" ʿAbd Allah said, "Do you think that if his head were cut off you could make a head for him? Or if his hands were cut off you could make a hand for him? Or if his leg were cut off you could make a leg for him?" They said, "No." ʿAbd Allah said, "When the drop of semen falls into the woman, it remains for forty days, then descends as blood, then becomes a clot, then becomes a lump of flesh like that. Then Allah sends the angel and says, 'Write down his term, his deeds, his provision, his effect, and whether he is wretched or blessed.' You will never be able to change his character until you change his physical creation."
