It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) argued with one another in the presence of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about the matter of divine decree (qadar). He (peace and blessings be upon him) disliked it intensely, so much so that (from the intensity of his anger) it seemed as if pomegranate seeds had been burst upon his blessed face. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What are you engaged in?" They said: "O Messenger of Allah, we have been arguing among ourselves about divine decree." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Everything is according to Allah's decree and predestination, even this much," and he (peace and blessings be upon him) struck with his index finger upon the vein of his other forearm.
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Majza'ah Abu Usayd al-Thaqafi narrated nothing from Thabit al-Bunani except this hadith, and his son is alone in narrating it."
