Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Ahmad 8829 — Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with)
حَدَّثَنَا عَارِمٌ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُبَارَكٍ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَجْلَانَ ، عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ ، عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : وَقَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَبِيعَةَ فَلَمْ أُنْكِرْ ، قَالَ : " الْمُؤْمِنُ الْقَوِيُّ خَيْرٌ ، أَوْ أَفْضَلُ وَأَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِ الضَّعِيفِ ، وَكُلٌّ خَيْرٌ ، احْرِصْ عَلَى مَا يَنْفَعُكَ وَلَا تَعْجِزْ ، فَإِنْ غَلَبَكَ أَمْرٌ فَقُلْ قَدَّرَ اللَّهُ ، وَمَا شَاءَ صَنَعَ ، وَإِيَّاكَ وَاللَّوَّ ، فَإِنَّ اللَّوَّ يُفْتَحُ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: In the sight of Allah, a strong believer is better, superior, and more beloved than a weak believer, and there is goodness in each. Strive for those things that benefit you and do not become helpless. If any matter overpowers you, then say: "Allah has decreed it thus, and Allah does what He wills." And protect yourself from "if" and "but," for "if" and "but" open the door of Satan.
