1533 - ما هو مِن القَدَرِ
1533. WHAT IS PART OF FATE
5265.رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله : الدَّواءُ مِن القَدَرِ ، وهُو يَنفَعُ مَن يَشاءُ بما شاءَ .1
5265.The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'The remedy is a part of fate, and He helps whom He wills and however He wills.' 2
5266.رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله - لَمّا سُئلَ : أرأيتَ دَواءً نَتَداوى بهِ ، وَرُقىً نَستَرقِي بِها ، وأشياءَ نَفعَلُها ، هَل تَرُدُّ مِن قَدَرِ اللَّهِ ؟ - : بل هِي مِن قَدَرِ اللَّهِ .3
5266. The Prophet (SAWA), when asked, 'Have you seen medicine that we can cure ourselves with, amulets we can protect ourselves with, and things we can do to repel the destiny of Allah?' He replied, 'They are all part of the destiny of Allah.' 4
5267.الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام - عندَ انصِرافِهِ مِن صِفِّينَ فيجَوابِ شَيخٍ سَألَهُ عن مَسِيرِهِم إلَى الشامِ : أبِقَضاءٍ وقَدَرٍ ؟ - : والذي خَلَقَ الحَبَّةَ وبَرَأ النَّسَمَةَ ، ما قَطَعنا وادِياً ولا عَلَونا تَلعَةً إلّا بقَضاءٍ وقَدَرٍ ... لعلَّكَ ظَنَنتَه قَضاءً لازِماً وقَدَراً حاتِماً ، لو كانَ ذلكَ لَسَقَطَ الوَعدُ والوَعيدُ وبَطَلَ الثَّوابُ والعِقابُ ، ولا أتَت لائمَةٌ مِن اللَّهِ لِمُذنِبٍ ولا مَحمَدَةٌ مِن اللَّهِ لُمحسِنٍ ، ولا كانَ الُمحسِنُ أولى بثَوابِ الإحسانِ مِن المُذنِبِ ، ذلكَ مَقالُ أحزابِ عَبَدَةِ الأوثانِ ... ومَجُوسِها ، ولكنَّ اللَّهَ أمَرَ بالخَيرِ تَخييراً ونَهى عَنِ الشَّرِّ تَحذيراً ، ولم يُعصَ مَغلوباً ولم يُطَعْ مُكرَهاً ، ولا يُمَلِّكُ تَفويضاً .5
5267. Imam Ali (AS), returning from the Battle of Siffin, in answer to an old man who asked him about their journey to Syria: 'Is this fate or destiny?' said, 'By He who created the seed and made the human being, we have not gone through a valley or ascended a mountain without it being our fate and destiny.... You might think this to be imperative fate and inevitable destiny. If this were so then promise of reward (wad) and threat of penalty (waid), would cease to apply, and reward and punishment would become null. Allah would not blame the sinners, nor would He praise the good-doers. The benevolent would not be more worthy of reward for good deeds than the sinner, which is the belief of the idol worshippers.... and the Magians. However, Allah has commanded good by choice and forbidden evil by warning, and He is not disobeyed helplessly, nor obeyed forcefully or freely, and nor does He give man absolute control.' 6
5268.ابن نُباتَة : إنّ أميرَ المؤمنينَ عليه السلام عَدَلَ مِن عِندِ حائطٍ مائلٍ إلى حائطٍ آخَرَ ، فقيلَ لَهُ : يا أميرَ المؤمنينَ ، تَفِرُّ مِن قَضاءِ اللَّهِ ؟ ! قالَ : أفِرُّ مِن قَضاءِ اللَّهِ إلى قَدَرِ اللَّهِ عَزَّوجلَّ .7
5268. Ibn Nubata narrated, 'The Commander of the Faithful (AS) swerved away from a leaning wall away to another wall, so he was asked, 'O Commander of the Faithful, are you fleeing from the decree of Allah?' He said, 'I flee from the decree of Allah to the destiny of Allah, Mighty and Exalted.' 8
