عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ سُلَيْمٍ، قَالَ : قَدِمْتُ مَكَّةَ فَلَقِيتُ
عَطَاءَ بْنَ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ، فَقُلْتُ لَهُ : يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ ، إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْبَصْرَةِ يَقُولُونَ فِي الْقَدَرِ ، قَالَ : يَا بُنَيَّ ، أَتَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ ؟ قُلْتُ : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : فَاقْرَإِ الزُّخْرُفَ ، قَالَ : فَقَرَأْتُ حم { 1 } وَالْكِتَابِ الْمُبِينِ { 2 } إِنَّا جَعَلْنَاهُ قُرْءَانًا عَرَبِيًّا لَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ { 3 } وَإِنَّهُ فِي أُمِّ الْكِتَابِ لَدَيْنَا لَعَلِيٌّ حَكِيمٌ { 4 } سورة الزخرف آية 1-4 ، فَقَالَ : أَتَدْرِي مَا أُمُّ الْكِتَابِ ؟ قُلْتُ : اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ ، قَالَ : فَإِنَّهُ كِتَابٌ كَتَبَهُ اللَّهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَخْلُقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ ، وَقَبْلَ أَنْ يَخْلُقَ الْأَرْضَ فِيهِ إِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ وَفِيهِ تَبَّتْ يَدَا أَبِي لَهَبٍ وَتَبَّ ، قَالَ عَطَاءٌ : فَلَقِيتُ
الْوَلِيدَ بْنَ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ صَاحِبِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَسَأَلْتُهُ مَا كَانَ وَصِيَّةُ أَبِيكَ عِنْدَ الْمَوْتِ ، قَالَ : دَعَانِي
أَبِي، فَقَالَ لِي : يَا بُنَيَّ ، اتَّقِ اللَّهَ وَاعْلَمْ أَنَّكَ لَنْ تَتَّقِيَ اللَّهَ حَتَّى تُؤْمِنَ بِاللَّهِ ، وَتُؤْمِنَ بِالْقَدَرِ كُلِّهِ خَيْرِهِ وَشَرِّهِ ، فَإِنْ مُتَّ عَلَى غَيْرِ هَذَا دَخَلْتَ النَّارَ ، إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " إِنَّ أَوَّلَ مَا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ الْقَلَمَ ، فَقَالَ : اكْتُبْ ، فَقَالَ : مَا أَكْتُبُ ؟ قَالَ : اكْتُبِ الْقَدَرَ مَا كَانَ ، وَمَا هُوَ كَائِنٌ إِلَى الْأَبَدِ "، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ .
´Abdul-Wahid bin Sulaim narrated:` "I arrived in Makkah and met 'Ata bin Abi Rabah. I said to him: 'O Abu Muhammad! The people of Al-Basrah speak about Al-Qadar.' He said: 'O my son! Do you recite the Quran?' I said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Then recite Az-Zukhruf to me.'" He said: 'So I recited: Ha Mim. By the manifest Book. Verily, We have made it a Qur'an in Arabic that you may be able to understand. And verily, it is in the Mother of Book with Us, indeed exalted, full of wisdom. Then he said: 'Do you know what Mother of Books is?' I said: 'Allah and His Messenger know better.' He said:'It is a book that Allah wrote before He created the Heavens, and before He created the earth. In it, it is (written): Fir'awn is among the inhabitants of the Fire, and in it is: Perish the two hands of Abu Lahab, and perish he!'Ata said: 'I met Al-Walid the son of 'Ubadah bin As-Samit the Companion of the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) and asked him:'What was your father's admonition when he died?" He said:"He called me and said: 'O my son ! Have Taqwa of Allah, and know that you will never have Taqwa of Allah until you believe in Allah, and you believe in Al-Qadar- all of it-its good and its bad. If you die upon other than this you shall enter the Fire. Indeed I heard the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) saying: "Verily the first of what Allah created was the Pen. So He said: 'Write.' It said : 'What shall I write?' He said : 'Write Al-Qadar, what it is , and what shall be, until the end.'"
