(حديث قدسي) حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ , حَدَّثَنَا الْخَطَّابُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ , عَنْ خُصَيْفٍ , عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ , قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِذَا اسْتَقَرَّتِ النُّطْفَةُ فِي الرَّحِمِ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا , أَوْ أَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً , بَعَثَ إِلَيْهَا مَلَكًا , فَيَقُولُ : يَا رَبِّ , مَا رِزْقُهُ ؟ ، فَيُقَالُ لَهُ ، فَيَقُولُ : يَا رَبِّ , مَا أَجَلُهُ ؟ ، فَيُقَالُ لَهُ ، فَيَقُولُ : يَا رَبِّ , ذَكَرٌ أَوْ أُنْثَى ؟ فَيُعْلَمُ ، فَيَقُولُ : يَا رَبِّ , شَقِيٌّ أَوْ سَعِيدٌ ؟ فَيُعْلَمُ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When the drop of semen settles in the womb of the mother and forty days pass over it, an angel comes to it and asks: "O Lord, what will be its provision?" It is informed. Then he asks: "O Lord, how long will its lifespan be?" It is informed. Then he asks: "O Lord, will it be male or female?" That too is informed. Then he asks: "O Lord, will it be wretched or blessed?" That too is informed.
