حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ غَيْلَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا رِشْدِينُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَعْدٍ أَبُو الْحَجَّاجِ الْمَهْرِيُّ، عَنْ حَرْمَلَةَ بْنِ عِمْرَانَ التُّجِيبِيِّ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " إِذَا رَأَيْتَ اللهَ يُعْطِي الْعَبْدَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا عَلَى مَعَاصِيهِ مَا يُحِبُّ، فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ اسْتِدْرَاجٌ " ثُمَّ تَلَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: {فَلَمَّا نَسُوا مَا ذُكِّرُوا بِهِ فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ أَبْوَابَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ حَتَّى إِذَا فَرِحُوا بِمَا أُوتُوا أَخَذْنَاهُمْ بَغْتَةً فَإِذَا هُمْ مُبْلِسُونَ} [الأنعام: ٤٤] (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Uqbah bin Aamir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: If you see that Allah Almighty is granting someone in this world whatever he desires despite his disobedience, then this is istidraaj (gradual entrapment). Then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) recited this verse: When they forgot that by which they had been reminded, We opened to them the doors of everything, until, when they rejoiced in what they were given, We seized them suddenly, and they were plunged into despair.
