Hadith 3311

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ) قَالَ: قَالَتْ أُمُّ حَبِيبَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا ابْنَةُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ: اللَّهُمَّ أَمْتِعْنِي بِزَوْجِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَبِأَبِي أَبِي سُفْيَانَ وَبِأَخِي مُعَاوِيَةَ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((إِنَّكِ سَأَلْتِ اللَّهَ لِآجَالٍ مَضْرُوبَةٍ وَأَيَّامٍ مَعْدُودَةٍ وَأَرْزَاقٍ مَقْسُومَةٍ، لَنْ يُعَجَّلَ شَيْءٌ قَبْلَ حِلِّهِ أَوْ يُؤَخَّرَ شَيْءٌ عَنْ حِلِّهِ، وَلَوْ كُنْتِ سَأَلْتِ اللَّهَ أَنْ يُعِيذَكِ مِنْ عَذَابٍ فِي النَّارِ وَعَذَابٍ فِي الْقَبْرِ كَانَ أَخْيَرَ وَأَفْضَلَ))
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Sayyidah Umm Habibah bint Abi Sufyan (may Allah be pleased with her) made this supplication: O Allah! Grant me the opportunity to benefit from my husband, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), my father Abu Sufyan, and my brother Mu'awiyah. But the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her: You have asked Allah for matters whose times and days have already been appointed, and their sustenance has already been distributed. Nothing can be advanced or delayed from its appointed time. If you had supplicated to Allah that He protect you from the punishment of the Fire and the grave, that would have been better and more virtuous for you.
