قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ : أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ ، عَنْ زُبَيْدِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ الْيَامِيِّ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ - عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : لَيْسَ شَيْءٌ يُقَرِّبُكُمْ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ ، وَيُبَاعِدُكُمْ مِنَ النَّارِ إِلَّا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِهِ ، وَلَيْسَ شَيْءٌ يُبَاعِدُكُمْ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ ، وَيُقَرِّبُكُمْ مِنَ النَّارِ إِلَّا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْهُ ، وَإِنَّ الرُّوحَ الْأَمِينَ نَفَثَ فِي رُوعِي أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنْ نَفْسٍ تَمُوتُ إِلَّا وَقَدْ كَتَبَ اللهُ تَعَالَى رِزْقَهَا ، فَاتَّقُوا اللهَ ، وَأَجْمِلُوا فِي الطَّلَبِ ، وَلَا يَحْمِلَنَّكُمُ اسْتِبْطَاءُ الرِّزْقِ أَنْ تَطْلُبُوهُ بِالْمَعَاصِي ، فَإِنَّهُ لَا يُدْرَكُ مَا عِنْدَ اللهِ تَعَالَى إِلَّا بِطَاعَتِهِ .

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is nothing that brings you near to Paradise and far from Hell except that I have commanded you to do it, and there is nothing that takes you far from Paradise and near to Hell except that I have forbidden you from it. Indeed the Trustworthy Spirit (Jibril (peace be upon him)) has inspired into my heart that no soul will taste death until it completes its provision written by Allah Almighty. So be mindful of Allah and adopt a fine and pure way in seeking provision. Let the delay of provision never drive you to seek it through disobedience to Allah, for what (good and blessing) is with Allah Almighty can be attained only through obedience to Him."
