Hadith #91

Arabic Text

English Translation

Yunus narrated to us, Layth narrated to us, from Muhammad, from al-Qa'qa', from Abu Salih, from Abu Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه), from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who said: 'A strong believer is better and more beloved to Allah than a weak believer, and in each there is good. Be eager for what benefits you, seek help from Allah, and do not be helpless. If something befalls you, do not say: If only I had done such-and-such. Rather say: Allah has decreed, and what He wills He does. For indeed, "if" opens the door to the work of Shaytan.'
