عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ الصَّادِقُ المَصْدُوقُ: «إِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ يُجْمَعُ خَلْقُهُ فِي بَطْنِ أُمِّهِ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا، ثُمَّ يَكُونُ عَلَقَةً مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ يَكُونُ مُضْغَةً مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ يُرْسَلُ إلَيْهِ المَلَكُ فَيَنْفُخُ فِيهِ الرُّوحَ، وَيُؤْمَرُ بِأَرْبَعِ كَلِمَاتٍ: بِكَتْبِ رِزْقِهِ، وَأَجَلِهِ، وَعَمَلِهِ، وَشَقِيٍّ أَوْ سَعِيدٍ؛ فَوَالَّذِي لَا إلَهَ غَيْرُهُ إنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ لَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ الجَنَّةِ حَتَّى مَا يَكُونُ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَهَا إلَّا ذِرَاعٌ فَيَسْبِقُ عَلَيْهِ الكِتَابُ فَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ النَّارِ فَيَدْخُلُهَا، وَإِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ لَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ النَّارِ حَتَّى مَا يَكُونُ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَهَا إلَّا ذِرَاعٌ، فَيَسْبِقُ عَلَيْهِ الكِتَابُ فَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ الجَنَّةِ فَيَدْخُلُهَا».
Imepokewa kutoka kwa Abuu Abdirahman Abdullahi Bin Masoud radhi za Mwenyezi Mungu ziwe juu yake- amesema: Alituhadithia Mtume rehema na amani ziwe juu yake naye ndiye mkweli mwenye kusadikika: "Hakika mmoja wenu hukusanywa umbile lake ndani ya tumbo la mama yake siku arobaini, kisha linakuwa pande la damu kwa mfano wake, kisha linakuwa pande la nyama mfano wake (siku arobaini), kisha linatumiwa Malaika analipulizia roho, na anaamrishwa kuandika maneno manne: Kuandika riziki yake, na umri wake, na matendo yake, na kuwa ni muovu au mwema; namuapa yule ambaye hakuna Mola isipokuwa yeye hakika mmoja wenu atafanya amali za watu wa Peponi mpaka ikawa baina yake na Peponi ni dhiraa moja (futi) kikamtangulia kitabu akafanya amali za watu wa motoni akauingia, na hakika mmoja wenu atafanya amali za watu wa motoni mpaka ikawa baina yake na Moto isipokuwa dhiraa, kitabu kikamtangulia akafanya amali za watu wa Peponi na akaingia".
Abu ‘Abdur-Rahmān ‘Abdullah ibn Mas‘ūd (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) related to us, and he is the truthful and the trusted one; he said: "The creation of each one of you is brought together in his mother's womb for forty days. Then, he becomes a clinging clot for a similar period, then a lump (of flesh) for a similar period. Then, the angel is sent to him, who breathes life into him and is commanded to write down four things: his provision, lifespan, deeds, and whether miserable or happy. By the One other than Whom there is no god, one of you would do the deeds of the people of Paradise until he is only an arm's length away from it, but the predestination overtakes him, causing him to do the deed of the people of Hellfire, and he enters it; and one of you would do the deeds of the people of Hellfire until he is only an arm's length away from it, but the predestination overtakes him, causing him to do the deed of the people of Paradise, and he enters it."
Kumebainishwa hatua za uumbwaji wa mwanadamu.
Kuamini hukumu na kadari.
Mwisho wa mambo yote huwa kwa namna ambavyo imekwishapangwa na kukadiriwa.
Tahadhari ya kutodanganyika na muonekano wa matendo; Bali matendo huangaliwa mwisho wake.
