91. It was narrated that Surâqah bin Ju'shum said: "I said: 'O Messenger of Allâh, is one's deed in that which has already dried of the Pen and what has passed of the Divine Decree, or is it in the future?' He said: 'No, it is in that which has already dried of the Pen and what has passed of the Divine Decree, and each person is facilitated for what he has been created.'" (Sahih)
91 - حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَطَاءُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ الْخَفَّافُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ سُرَاقَةَ بْنِ جُعْشُمٍ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، الْعَمَلُ فِيمَا جَفَّ بِهِ الْقَلَمُ، وَجَرَتْ بِهِ الْمَقَادِيرُ، أَمْ فِي أَمْرٍ مُسْتَقْبَلٍ؟ قَالَ: «بَلْ فِيمَا جَفَّ بِهِ الْقَلَمُ، وَجَرَتْ بِهِ الْمَقَادِيرُ، وَكُلٌّ مُيَسَّرٌ لِمَا خُلِقَ لَهُ»

The question of a man's being righteous or otherwise is also linked to the Divine Decree, but he does not know it. He is, therefore, obligated to follow the laws of Shari'ah. For more details please see notes on Hadith 76.
