حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَابْنُ، نُمَيْرٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى بْنِ حَبَّانَ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ الْمُؤْمِنُ الْقَوِيُّ خَيْرٌ وَأَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِ الضَّعِيفِ وَفِي كُلٍّ خَيْرٌ احْرِصْ عَلَى مَا يَنْفَعُكَ وَاسْتَعِنْ بِاللَّهِ وَلاَ تَعْجِزْ وَإِنْ أَصَابَكَ شَىْءٌ فَلاَ تَقُلْ لَوْ أَنِّي فَعَلْتُ كَانَ كَذَا وَكَذَا . وَلَكِنْ قُلْ قَدَرُ اللَّهِ وَمَا شَاءَ فَعَلَ فَإِنَّ لَوْ تَفْتَحُ عَمَلَ الشَّيْطَانِ ‏"‏ .

বাংলা অনুবাদ
আবূ বাকর ইবনু আবূ শাইবাহ ও ইবনু নুমায়র (রহঃ) ..... আবু হুরাইরাহ্ (রাযিঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ শক্তিধর ঈমানদার দুর্বল ঈমানদারের তুলনায় আল্লাহর নিকট উত্তম ও অতীব পছন্দনীয়। তবে প্রত্যেকের মধ্যেই কল্যাণ নিহিত আছে, যাতে তোমার উপকার রয়েছে তা অর্জনে তুমি আগ্রহী হও এবং আল্লাহর কাছে সাহায্য কামনা কর। তুমি অক্ষম হয়ে যেও না। এমন বলো না যে, যদি আমি এমন এমন করতাম তবে এমন হত না। বরং এ কথা বলে যে, আল্লাহ তা’আলা যা নির্দিষ্ট করেছেন এবং যা চেয়েছেন তাই করেছেন। কেননাلَوْ (যদি) শব্দটি শাইতানের (শয়তানের) কর্মের দুয়ার খুলে দেয়। (ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশন ৬৫৩২, ইসলামিক সেন্টার)
