Bayhaqi 7133 — Encouragement to find consolation in what Allah

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو طَاهِرٍ الْفَقِيهُ، ثنا أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ حَفْصٍ الزَّاهِدُ، ثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْعَبْسِيُّ الْكُوفِيُّ، أنبأ وَكِيعٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي ظَبْيَانَ، قَالَ كُنَّا ⦗١١١⦘ نَعْرِضُ الْمَصَاحِفَ عِنْدَ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ فَمَرَّ بِهَذِهِ الْآيَةِ: {مَا أَصَابَ مِنْ مُصِيبَةٍ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِ اللهِ وَمَنْ يُؤْمِنْ بِاللهِ يَهْدِ قَلْبَهُ} [التغابن: ١١] قَالَ: فَسَأَلْنَاهُ عَنْهَا فَقَالَ: " هُوَ الرَّجُلُ تُصِيبُهُ الْمُصِيبَةُ فَيَعْلَمُ أَنَّهَا مِنْ عِنْدِ اللهِ فَيَرْضَى وَيُسَلِّمُ. وَرُوِيَ هَذَا عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ.
Abu Zabyan (may Allah have mercy on him) said: We used to present our copies of the Qur'an to Alqamah bin Qays (may Allah have mercy on him), and he came to this verse: "No calamity strikes except by the permission of Allah, and whoever believes in Allah, He guides his heart" [Surah al-Taghabun: 11], meaning that whatever affliction befalls a person comes by Allah's command, and those who believe in Allah have their hearts set on the right course. We asked him about it, and he said: It refers to the man who is struck by a calamity and knows that it is from Allah, so he is content with it and submits.
