2516. Ibn ‘Abbās narrated: “I was behind the Prophet ﷺ one day when he said: ‘O boy! I will teach you a statement: Be mindful of Allāh and He will protect you. Be mindful of Allāh and you will find Him before you. When you ask, ask
Allāh, and when you seek aid, seek Allāh's aid. Know that if the entire creation were to gather together to do something to benefit you – you would never get any benefit except that Allāh had written for you. And if they were to gather to do something to harm you – you would never be harmed except that Allāh had written for you. The pens are lifted and the pages are dried.” (Hasan)
[He said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Sahīh.

Commentary
The Hadīth confirms that Allāh protects a person from things unseemly and evil if he abides by the commandments of Allāh regarding the prohibited and the permitted, and enables him to do things desirable and good, and saves him from the trials of this world and of the Hereafter.
