[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah" and Sufyan once said, "I asked the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , if there is a remedy we can use, and if there is a charm we can seek to protect ourselves, and if there is a preventive measure we can take, would it be going against the decree of Allah, the Blessed and Exalted?" He said, "Indeed, it is from the decree of Allah, the Blessed and Exalted."  

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّةً سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَرَأَيْتَ دَوَاءً نَتَدَاوَى بِهِ وَرُقًى نَسْتَرْقِي بِهَا وَتُقًى نَتَّقِيهَا أَتَرُدُّ مِنْ قَدَرِ اللهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى شَيْئًا؟ قَالَ إِنَّهَا مِنْ قَدَرِ اللهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى  

[Machine] "He came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, do you know of a medication that we can use for treatment, a supplication that we can recite for seeking cure, and a protection we can seek to avoid harm? Will these actions cancel out the predestination of Allah?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, 'That falls under the predestination of Allah, the Blessed and Exalted.'"  

أَنَّهُ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَرَأَيْتَ دَوَاءً نَتَدَاوَى بِهِ وَرُقًى نَسْتَرْقِي بِهَا وَتُقًى نَتَّقِيهَا هَلْ يَرُدُّ ذَلِكَ مِنْ قَدَرِ اللهِ شَيْئًا؟ قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ذَلِكَ مِنْ قَدَرِ اللهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى  

[Machine] He said, "O Messenger of Allah, do you see a remedy that we can seek healing through, and a treatment that we can practice precaution with? Does this contradict the decree of Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, in any way?" So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Verily, it is a part of the decree of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic."  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَرَأَيْتَ دَوَاءً نَتَدَاوَى بِهِ وَرُقًى نَسْتَرْقِيهَا وَتُقًى نَتَّقِيهَا هَلْ يَرُدُّ ذَلِكَ مِنْ قَدَرِ اللهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى مِنْ شَيْءٍ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّهُ مِنْ قَدَرِ اللهِ عَزَّوَجَلَّ  

Abu Dawud said “I heard Muhammad bin Isa narrating this tradition who said Mu’tamar narrated it to us. And he (Mu’tamar) said “ I heard Al Hakam bin Aban narrating this tradition. He did not mention the name of Ibn ‘Abbas. Abu Dawud said “Al Hussain bin Huraith wrote to me saying “Al Fadl bin Musa narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas to the same effect from the Prophet ﷺ. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2225)
