Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا خَلَفُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ مُبَارَكٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَجْلَانَ، عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " الْمُؤْمِنُ الْقَوِيُّ خَيْرٌ أَوْ أَفْضَلُ وَأَحَبُّ إِلَى اللهِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِ الضَّعِيفِ، وَفِي كُلٍّ خَيْرٌ احْرِصْ عَلَى مَا يَنْفَعُكَ، وَلَا تَعْجَزْ، فَإِنْ غَلَبَكَ أَمْرٌ، فَقُلْ: قَدَّرَ اللهُ وَمَا شَاءَ صَنَعَ، وَإِيَّاكَ وَاللَّوَّ، فَإِنَّ اللَّوَّ تُفْتَحُ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ " (١)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: In the sight of Allah, a strong believer is better, superior, and more beloved than a weak believer, and there is goodness in each. Strive for those things that benefit you and do not become helpless. If any matter overpowers you, then say: Allah has decreed it thus, and Allah does whatever He wills. And protect yourself from "if" and "but," for "if" and "but" open the door of Satan.
