Asking Allāh That We Be
Satisfied with His Decisions
:٢٦٣/٢ قال
مالك في الموطأ
كان
عمر بن عبد العزيز يدعو:
اللهم
رضني بقضائك وأسعدني بقدرك حتى لا أحب تأخير شيء عجلته ولا تعجيل شيء أخرته.
Shaikh ʿAlī al-Ḥaddādī said:
[Imām] Mālik said in Al-Muwaṭṭaʾ, vol. 2, p. 263:
ʿUmar ibn ʿAbd al-ʿAziz used to ask [of Allāh]:
اللَّهُمَّ
رَضِّنِي بِقَضَائِكَ وَأَسعِدنِي بِقَدَرِكَ حَتَّى لاَ أُحِبَّ تَأْخِيرَ شَيءٍ
عَجَّلتَهُ وَلاَ تَعجِيلَ شَيءٍ أَخَّرتَهُ
O Allāh, make me pleased with and accept that which you have
ordained, and make me happy with what you have written [of destiny], to the
extent I don’t love having anything put off for later that you have made come
sooner, nor having anything come sooner that you have put off for later.
