Narrator:Umar ibn al-Khattāb

حَدَّثَنَا بُنْدَارٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَالِمَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ قَالَ عُمَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ مَا نَعْمَلُ فِيهِ أَمْرٌ مُبْتَدَعٌ أَوْ مُبْتَدَأٌ أَوْ فِيمَا قَدْ فُرِغَ مِنْهُ فَقَالَ ‏

"‏ فِيمَا قَدْ فُرِغَ مِنْهُ يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ وَكُلٌّ مُيَسَّرٌ أَمَّا مَنْ كَانَ مِنْ أَهْلِ السَّعَادَةِ فَإِنَّهُ يَعْمَلُ لِلسَّعَادَةِ وَأَمَّا مَنْ كَانَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الشَّقَاءِ فَإِنَّهُ يَعْمَلُ لِلشَّقَاءِ ‏"

'Asim bin 'Ubaidullah said:

' I heard Salim bin 'Abdullah narrating a Hadith from his father who said: "'Umar said : "O Messenger of Allah! Do you see that what we do is a new matter- or a matter initiated – or it is a matter already concluded?” He (s.a.w) said: “ O Ibn Al-Khattab! It is a matter already concluded. For everyone is suited (for that for which he is created). As for one who is among the people of happiness, then he works for happiness, and as for the one who is among the people of misery, then he works for his misery.” (Hasan)

Reported by At-Tirmidhi (No. 2135) and Ahmad (No. 191).

Al-Mubarakfuri — Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi

قَوْلُهُ : ( أَمْرٌ مُبْتَدَعٌ أَوْ مُبْتَدَأٌ ) لَفَظَّةُ أَوْ لِلشَّكِّ مِنْ الرَّاوِي , وَالْمَعْنَى أَنَّ مَا تَعْمَلُ هَلْ هُوَ أَمْرٌ مُسْتَأْنَفٌ لَمْ يَسْبِقْ بِهِ قَدَرٌ وَلَا عِلْمٌ مِنْ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى وَإِنَّمَا يَعْلَمُهُ بَعْدَ وُقُوعِهِ ( أَوْ فِيمَا قَدْ فُرِغَ مِنْهُ ) بِصِيغَةِ الْمَجْهُولِ ( قَالَ ) أَيْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ( فِيمَا قَدْ فُرِغَ مِنْهُ ) أَيْ قَدْ فَرَغَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ قَضَائِهِ وَقَدَرِهِ ( وَكُلٌّ مُيَسَّرٌ ) أَيْ كُلٌّ مُوَفَّقٌ وَمُهَيَّأٌ لِمَا خُلِقَ لَهُ , يَعْنِي لِأَمْرٍ قُدِّرَ ذَلِكَ الْأَمْرُ لَهُ مِنْ الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ ( أَمَّا مَنْ كَانَ ) أَيْ فِي عِلْمِ اللَّهِ أَوْ كِتَابِهِ أَوْ آخِرِ أَمْرِهِ وَخَا…

Allah's Messenger, explain our religion to us (in a way) as if we have been created just now.

Thereupon he said: The pens…
