[6731] 6 - (2647) It was narrated that 'Alî said: "We were at a funeral in Baqî' Al-Gharqad, and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ came to us. He sat down and we sat down around him. He had a stick, and he looked down at the ground, and started to scratch the ground with the stick, then he said: 'There is no one among you, no living soul, but Allâh has decreed his place in Paradise or the Fire, and it has been decreed whether he is miserable or happy.' A man said: 'O Messenger of Allâh, shouldn't we rely on our destiny and stop striving?' He said: 'Whoever is one of the happy, he will find himself doing the deeds of the happy, and whoever is one of the miserable, he will find himself doing the deeds of them miserable.' He ﷺ said: 'Do good deeds, for everyone is helped (to do their deeds). The happy are helped to do the deeds of the happy, and the miserable are helped to do the deeds of the miserable.' Then he recited: 'As for him who gives (in charity) and keeps his duty to Allâh and fears Him, and believes in Al Husnâ; We will make smooth for him the path of ease (goodness). But he who is greedy miser and thinks himself self sufficient and
believes Al-Husnâ, We will make smooth for him the path for evil.’[1]
