[Machine] "May Allah have mercy on a servant who Allah has granted strength and so he works for his own benefit in obedience to Allah, or he may have weakness in which he doesn't perform acts of disobedience to Allah."  

الزهد لأحمد:١٨٣٣حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ عَمْرِوٍ الضَّبِّيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَسْلِمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ عَنْ أَبِي حَيْوَةَ قَالَ دَخَلْنَا عَلَى بَكْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْمُزَنِيِّ نَعُودُهُ فِي مَرَضِهِ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَقَالَ

«رَحِمَ اللَّهُ عَبْدًا رَزَقَهُ اللَّهُ قُوَّةً فَأَعْمَلَ لِنَفْسِهِ فِي طَاعَةِ اللَّهِ أَوْ قَصَّرَ بِهِ ضَعْفٌ فَلَمْ يَعْمَلْ فِي مَعَاصِي اللَّهِ ﷻ»
