وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كُنَّا جُلُوسًا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي جَنَازَةٍ أُرَاهُ قَالَ بِبَقِيعِ الْغَرْقَدِ قَالَ فَنَكَتَ فِي الْأَرْضِ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَقَالَ مَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ إِلَّا وَقَدْ كُتِبَ مَقْعَدُهُ مِنْ الْجَنَّةِ وَمَقْعَدُهُ مِنْ النَّارِ قَالَ قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَفَلَا نَتَّكِلُ قَالَ لَا اعْمَلُوا فَكُلٌّ مُيَسَّرٌ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَى وَاتَّقَى إِلَى قَوْلِهِ فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَى
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 1110
It was narrated that 'Ali (RA) said: We were sitting with the Prophet (PBUH) at a funeral i [the narrator] think he said in Baqee' al-Gharqad and he struck the ground {with a stick), then he lifted his head and said: "There is no one among you but Allah has decreed his place in Paradise or his place in Hell." We said: O Messenger of Allah, shouldn't we rely on that? He said: "No; rather strive, for each will be enabled [to do the appropriate deeds]." Then he recited: "As for him who gives (in charity) and keeps his duty to Allah and fears Him, And believes in Al-Husna We will make smooth for him the path of ease (goodness). But he who is greedy miser and thinks himself self- sufficient. And belies Al-Husna (See the footnote of the Verse No. 6). We will make smooth for him the path for evil" [al-Lail 92:5-10],
