Hadith 872
أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عِيسَى ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ ، عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيُحْرَمُ الرِّزْقَ بِالذَّنْبِ يُصِيبُهُ ، وَلا يُرَدُّ الْقَدْرُ إِلا بِالدُّعَاءِ ، وَلا يَزِيدُ فِي الْعُمُرِ إِلا الْبِرُّ " . قَالَ أَبُو حَاتِمٍ : قَوْلُهُ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي هَذَا الْخَبَرِ لَمْ يُرِدْ بِهِ عُمُومَهُ ، وَذَاكَ أَنَّ الذَّنْبَ لا يَحْرِمُ الرِّزْقَ الَّذِي رُزِقَ الْعَبْدُ ، بَلْ يُكَدِّرِ عَلَيْهِ صَفَاءَهُ إِذَا فَكَرَّ فِي تَعْقِيبِ الْحَالَةِ فِيهِ . وَدَوَامُ الْمَرْءِ عَلَى الدُّعَاءِ يُطَيِّبُ لَهُ وُرُودَ الْقَضَاءِ ، فَكَأَنَّهُ رَدَّهُ لِقِلَّةِ حِسِّهِ بِأَلَمِهِ ، وَالْبِرُّ يُطَيِّبُ الْعَيْشَ حَتَّى كَأَنَّهُ يُزَادُ فِي عُمْرِهِ بِطِيبِ عَيْشِهِ ، وَقِلَّةِ تَعَذُّرِ ذَلِكَ فِي الأَحْوَالِ .
Sayyiduna Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “(Sometimes) a person is deprived of sustenance because of committing a sin, and only supplication can avert destiny, and only righteousness increases life.” (Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says:) The meaning of the statement of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned in this hadith is not general. That is, the sustenance written in a person’s fate is not withheld from him because of sin, but rather its purity is tainted. When he reflects on his situation after the fact, and a person’s constant supplication makes the decree of destiny acceptable for him. It is as if, by feeling the pain less, he puts it aside, and righteousness purifies a person’s life, to the extent that he feels as if, because of the comfort in his life, his lifespan has increased. And generally, these things are found very rarely.
