4949. Narrated ‘Ali رضي الله عنه: While the Prophet ﷺ was in a funeral procession, he picked up something and started scraping the ground with it and said, “There is none among you but has his place written for him either in the Hell-fire or in Paradise.” They said, “O Allāh’s Messenger! Shall we not depend upon what has been written for us and give up doing (good) deeds?” He said, “Carry on doing (good) deeds, for everybody will find easy to do such deeds that will lead him to his destined place) for which he has been created. So, he who is destined to be among the blessed (in the Hereafter), will find it easy to do the deeds characteristic of such people, while he who is destined to be among the wretched ones, will find it easy to do the deeds characteristic of such people.” Then he recited: “As for him who gives (in charity) and keeps his duty to Allāh and fears Him, and believes in Al-Husnā.” (V.92:5,6) (93) SŪRAT AD-DUHĀ(The Forenoon - After the Sunrise) In the Name of Allāh, the Most Gracious,the Most Merciful.
