حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ، أَنْبَأَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلاَنَ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، يَبْلُغُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ ‏ "‏ الْمُؤْمِنُ الْقَوِيُّ خَيْرٌ وَأَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِ الضَّعِيفِ وَفِي كُلٍّ خَيْرٌ احْرِصْ عَلَى مَا يَنْفَعُكَ وَلاَ تَعْجِزْ فَإِنْ غَلَبَكَ أَمْرٌ فَقُلْ قَدَّرَ اللَّهُ وَمَا شَاءَ فَعَلَ وَإِيَّاكَ وَاللَّوْ فَإِنَّ اللَّوْ تَفْتَحُ عَمَلَ الشَّيْطَانِ ‏"‏ .

Narrator: Abu Hurairah

English translation
It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said, attributing it to the Prophet (ﷺ): “The stronger believer is better and more beloved to Allah than the weak believer, although both are good. Strive to seek that which will benefit you and do not feel helpless. If something overwhelms you, then say: Qaddarallah, wa ma sha'a fa’al (It is the decree of Allah and what He wills He does). And beware of (saying) ‘If only,’ for ‘If only’ opens the door to Satan.”
বাংলা অনুবাদ
। আবূ হুরায়রা (রাঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেনঃ শক্তিমান মুমিন ব্যক্তি দুর্বল মুমিন ব্যক্তির তুলনায় উত্তম এবং আল্লাহর কাছে অধিক প্রিয়। অবশ্য উভয়ের মধ্যে কল্যাণ আছে। তোমাদের জন্য উপকারী প্রতিটি উত্তম কাজের প্রতি আগ্রহী হও এবং অলস বা গাফিল হয়ো না। কোন কাজ তোমাকে পরাভূত করলে তুমি বলো, আল্লাহ নির্দ্ধারণ করেছেন এবং নিজ মর্জি মাফিক করে রেখেছেন। ‘‘যদি’’ শব্দ সম্পর্কে সাবধান থাকো। কেননা ‘‘যদি’’ শয়তানের কর্মের পথ উন্মুক্ত করে।
