[Machine] "Allah, who created you from weakness, then made strength after weakness, then made weakness after strength." Then he said, "I have read upon the Messenger of Allah as you have read upon me, so he took upon me as I took upon you."  

أحمد:٥٢٢٧ – حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ فُضَيْلٍ وَيَزِيدُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا فُضَيْلُ بْنُ مَرْزُوقٍ عَنْ عَطِيَّةَ الْعَوْفِيِّ قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى ابْنِ عُمَرَ {اللهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَكُمْ مِنْ ضَعْفٍ ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِنْ بَعْدِ ضَعْفٍ قُوَّةً ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِنْ بَعْدِ قُوَّةٍ ضَعْفًا} [الروم 54] فَقَالَ

(اللهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَكُمْ مِنْ ضُعْفٍ ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِنْ بَعْدِ ضُعْفٍ قُوَّةً ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِنْ بَعْدِ قُوَّةٍ ضُعْفًا) ثُمَّ قَالَ قرأْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كَمَا قَرَأْتَ عَلَيَّ فَأَخَذَ عَلَيَّ كَمَا أَخَذْتُ عَلَيْكَ

quran:30:54 –

Allah is the one who created you from weakness, then made after weakness strength, then made after strength weakness and white hair. He creates what He wills, and He is the Knowing, the Competent.  

God is the One Who created you from ˹a state of˺ weakness, ˹from˺ a ‘base fluid’ ˹cf. Q. 32:8˺, then He ordained after, a second, weakness, which is the weakness of ˹the period of˺ childhood, strength, that is, the strength of youth, then after strength He appointed weakness ˹again˺ and grey hair, the weakness of old age and the grey hairs of decrepitude (read ˹vocalised as˺ du‘f, ‘weakness’, in all three places). He creates what He will, of weakness and strength, youth and grey hairs, and He is the Knower, of how to manage His creatures, the Omnipotent.
القرآن:٣٠:٥٤ –

اللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَكُمْ مِنْ ضَعْفٍ ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِنْ بَعْدِ ضَعْفٍ قُوَّةً ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِنْ بَعْدِ قُوَّةٍ ضَعْفًا وَشَيْبَةً ۚ يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَاءُ ۖ وَهُوَ الْعَلِيمُ الْقَدِيرُ  

{الله الذي خلقكم من ضعف} ماء مهين {ثم جعل من بعد ضعف} آخر، وهو ضعف الطفولية {قوةً} أي قوة الشباب {ثم من بعد قوةٍ ضعفاً وشيبةً} ضعف الكبر وشيب الهرم والضعف في الثلاثة بضم أوله وفتحه {يخلق ما يشاء} من الضعف والقوة والشباب والشيبة {وهو العليم} بتدبير خلقه {القدير} على ما يشاء.
