حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي خَلَفٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَي بْنُ أَبِي بُكَيْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَطَاءٍ ، أَنَّ عِكْرِمَةَ بْنَ خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَهُ ، أَنَّ أَبَا الطُّفَيْلِ حَدَّثَهُ ، قَالَ : دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي سَرِيحَةَ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنِ أَسِيدٍ الْغِفَارِيِّ ، فَقَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِأُذُنَيَّ هَاتَيْنِ ، يَقُولُ : " إِنَّ النُّطْفَةَ تَقَعُ فِي الرَّحِمِ أَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً ، ثُمَّ يَتَصَوَّرُ عَلَيْهَا الْمَلَكُ ، قَالَ زُهَيْرٌ : حَسِبْتُهُ ، قَالَ : الَّذِي يَخْلُقُهَا ، فَيَقُولُ : يَا رَبِّ أَذَكَرٌ أَوْ أُنْثَى ؟ فَيَجْعَلُهُ اللَّهُ ذَكَرًا أَوْ أُنْثَى ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ : يَا رَبِّ أَسَوِيٌّ ، أَوْ غَيْرُ سَوِيٍّ ؟ فَيَجْعَلُهُ اللَّهُ سَوِيًّا ، أَوْ غَيْرَ سَوِيٍّ ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ : يَا رَبِّ ، مَا رِزْقُهُ ، مَا أَجَلُهُ ، مَا خُلُقُهُ ؟ ثُمَّ يَجْعَلُهُ اللَّهُ شَقِيًّا أَوْ سَعِيدًا " .
Abu Tufail reported: I visited Abu Sariha Hudhaifa bin Usaid al-Ghifari who said: I listened with these two ears of mine Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: The semen stays in the womb for forty nights, then the angel, gives it a shape. Zubair said: I think that he said: One who fashions that and decides whether he would be male or female. Then he (the angel) says: Would his limbs be full or imperfect? And then the Lord makes them full and perfect or otherwise as He desires. Then he says: My Lord, what about his livelihood, and his death and what about his disposition? And then the Lord decides about his misfortune and fortune.
