بَابُ جَامِعِ مَا جَاءَ فِي أَهْلِ الْقَدَرِComprehensive rulings on what is reported about the people of Qadar (predestination)
Hadith 1626
وَحَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِك، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُقَالُ : الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي خَلَقَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ كَمَا يَنْبَغِي، الَّذِي لَا يَعْجَلُ شَيْءٌ أَنَاهُ وَقَدَّرَهُ، حَسْبِيَ اللَّهُ وَكَفَى سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ دَعَا، لَيْسَ وَرَاءَ اللَّهِ مَرْمَى .
It is narrated from Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, that in earlier times people used to say: All praise is due to Allah who created everything as He willed; nothing can happen before the appointed time; Allah is sufficient for me and such sufficiency is sufficient; Allah hears whoever calls upon Him; there is no one besides Allah to whom supplication may be made.
