Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam ‘ala Rasulillah
Narrated Ali (Radi-Allahu ‘anhu):
While the Prophet (Sallallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam) was in a funeral
procession he picked up something and started scraping the ground with
it, and said, “There is none among you has not his place written for him
either in the Hell Fire or in Paradise.” They said, “O Allah’s Apostle!
Shall we not depend upon what has been written for us and give up
deeds?” He said, “Carry on doing (good) deeds, for everybody will find
easy to do such deeds as will lead him to his destined place for which
he has been created. So he who is destined to be among the happy (in the
Hereafter), will find it easy to do the deeds characteristic of such
people, while he who is destined to be among the miserable ones, will
find it easy to do the deeds characteristic of such people.” Then he
recited:
‘As for him who gives (in charity) and keeps his duty to Allah, and
believes in the Best reward from Allah (i.e. Allah will compensate him
for what he will spend in Allah’s way), We will make smooth for him the
path of ease. But he who is a greedy miser….for him, the path for evil.’
