حفظ الله للصالحين وذكر بعض كراماتهم: قال ابن مسعود رضى الله عنه: إن العبد ليهمّ بالأمر من التجارة والإمارة حتى ييسِّر له، فينظر الله إليه فيقول للملائكة: اصرفوه عنه، فإني إن يسّرته له أدخلته النار فيصرفه الله عنه، فيظلُ يتطير، يقول: سبقني فلان، دهاني فلان، وما هو إلا فضل الله عزَّ وجل. [الجامع المنتخب / 140].
Full English translationGod’s protection of the righteous and mention of some of their miracles: Ibn Masoud, may God be pleased with him, said: A servant may be intent on a matter of trade or leadership until it is made easy for him, then God looks at him and says to the angels: Turn him away from it, for if I make it easy for him, I will put him in Hell. So God turns him away from it, and he remains superstitious, saying: So-and-so has preceded me, so-and-so has tricked me, but it is nothing but the grace of God, the Almighty and Majestic. [Al-Jami’ al-Muntakhab / 140].
