وَعَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ لَيْسَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ يُقَرِّبُكُمْ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ وَيُبَاعِدُكُمْ مِنَ النَّارِ إِلَّا قَدْ أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِهِ وَلَيْسَ شَيْءٌ يُقَرِّبُكُمْ مِنَ النَّارِ وَيُبَاعِدُكُمْ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ إِلَّا قَدْ نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْهُ وَإِنَّ الرُّوحَ الْأَمِينَ-وَفِي روايةٍ: وإِن رُوحَ الْقُدُسِ-نَفَثَ فِي رُوعِي أَنَّ نَفْسًا لَنْ تَمُوتَ حَتَّى تَسْتَكْمِلَ رِزْقَهَا أَلَا فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَأَجْمِلُوا فِي الطَّلَبِ وَلَا يَحْمِلَنَّكُمُ اسْتِبْطَاءُ الرِّزْقِ أَنْ تَطْلُبُوهُ بِمَعَاصِي اللَّهِ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يُدْرَكُ مَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ إِلَّا بِطَاعَتِهِ «. رَوَاهُ فِي» شرح السّنة «وَالْبَيْهَقِيّ فِي» شعب الإِيمان إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ: «وَإِنَّ رُوحَ الْقُدُسِ»
Ibn Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “O people! I have commanded you regarding everything that brings you closer to Paradise and keeps you away from Hell, and I have forbidden you from everything that brings you closer to Hell and keeps you away from Paradise. Indeed, the Trustworthy Spirit, and in another narration: indeed, the Holy Spirit, has inspired in my heart that no soul will die until it has completed its provision. Listen! Fear Allah and seek provision in a good way, and do not let the delay in provision drive you to seek it through disobedience to Allah, for what is with Allah can only be obtained through His obedience.” Sharh al-Sunnah, al-Bayhaqi in Shu’ab al-Iman, however, Imam al-Bayhaqi did not mention “wa inna Ruh al-Qudus.” Its chain is weak, narrated in Sharh al-Sunnah and al-Bayhaqi in Shu’ab al-Iman.
