bukhari:5645ʿAbdullāh b. Yūsuf > Mālik > Muḥammad b. ʿAbdullāh b. ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. Abū Ṣaʿṣaʿah > Saʿīd b. Yasār Abū al-Ḥubāb > Abū Hurayrah

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If Allah wants good for someone, He afflicts him with trials."

البخاري:٥٦٤٥حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي صَعْصَعَةَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ أَبَا الْحُبَابِ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «مَنْ يُرِدِ اللَّهُ بِهِ خَيْرًا يُصِبْ مِنْهُ».


Allah puts his servants through in this world to cleanse them before their final accounting

tirmidhi:2396Qutaybah > al-Layth > Yazīd b. Abū Ḥabīb > Saʿd b. Sinān > Anas

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “When Allah intends good for His servant, He hastens punishment for him in this world; and when He intends evil for His servant, He withholds it from him for his sin until he is made to fully meet it on the Day of Resurrection.”

With this chain of narration, from the Prophet ﷺ he said: “Indeed, the greatness of the reward comes with the greatness of the trial. And indeed, when Allah loves a people, He tests them: whoever is satisfied will have satisfaction, and whoever is displeased will have displeasure.”

Abū ʿĪsá said that this Ḥadīth is Ḥasan-Gharīb in this particular context.

الترمذي:٢٣٩٦حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «إِذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِعَبْدِهِ الْخَيْرَ عَجَّلَ لَهُ الْعُقُوبَةَ فِي الدُّنْيَا، وَإِذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِعَبْدِهِ الشَّرَّ أَمْسَكَ عَنْهُ بِذَنْبِهِ حَتَّى يُوَفَّى بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ»،

وَبِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: «إِنَّ عِظَمَ الْجَزَاءِ مَعَ عِظَمِ الْبَلاَءِ، وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ إِذَا أَحَبَّ قَوْمًا ابْتَلاَهُمْ، فَمَنْ رَضِيَ فَلَهُ الرِّضَا، وَمَنْ سَخِطَ فَلَهُ السَّخَطُ».

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ
