Musnad of Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 610 — he said: We were present with the Messenger
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ: كُنَّا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ: «مَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ إِلَّا قَدْ كُتِبَ مَقْعَدُهُ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ وَمَقْعَدُهُ مِنَ النَّارِ»، فَقُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَفَلَا تَتَّكِلُ؟ قَالَ: «لَا، اعْمَلُوا فَكُلٌّ مُيَسَّرٌ»، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ {فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَى وَاتَّقَى وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَى فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَى وَأَمَّا مَنْ بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَى وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَى فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَى} [الليل: 6]
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: We were present with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is none of you except that his place in Paradise and his place in Hell has (already) been written." We said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), should we not then rely (on what has been written for us)? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No, rather keep doing deeds, for for each person that deed is made easy (for which he was created)." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) recited these verses: "As for the one who gives (in the way of Allah), is mindful of Allah and affirms the best (word of truth), We will ease his way towards ease; and as for the one who is stingy, considers himself free of need and denies the best, We will ease his way towards hardship."
