English translation

[6725] 2 - (2644) It was narrated from Hudhaifah bin Asīd that the Prophet ﷺ said: "The angel enters upon the Nutfah (sperm drop) after it has settled in the womb for forty or forty-five nights, and he says: 'O Lord, miserable or happy?' And they are written down. Then he says: 'O Lord, male or female?' And they are written down. And he writes down his deeds, what he will leave behind, lifespan and provisions, then the scroll is rolled up, and nothing is added or taken away therefrom."

Arabic text

2 - (2644) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، وَزُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ - وَاللَّفْظُ لِابْنِ نُمَيْرٍ - قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنِ أَسِيدٍ، يَبْلُغُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: " يَدْخُلُ الْمَلَكُ عَلَى النُّطْفَةِ بَعْدَ مَا تَسْتَقِرُّ فِي الرَّحِمِ بِأَرْبَعِينَ، أَوْ خَمْسَةٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً، فَيَقُولُ: يَا رَبِّ أَشَقِيٌّ أَوْ سَعِيدٌ؟ فَيُكْتَبَانِ، فَيَقُولُ: أَيْ رَبِّ أَذَكَرٌ أَوْ أُنْثَى؟ فَيُكْتَبَانِ، وَيُكْتَبُ عَمَلُهُ وَأَثَرُهُ وَأَجَلُهُ وَرِزْقُهُ، ثُمَّ تُطْوَى الصُّحُفُ، فَلَا يُزَادُ فِيهَا وَلَا يُنْقَصُ "
