527 — Al-Firyābī informed us, saying: Abū Kāmil al-Jahdarī narrated to us, saying: Bishr ibn al-Mufaddal narrated to us, saying: Al-Taymī narrated to us, saying: A man asked Umar ibn Abd al-Azīz—may Allah have mercy on him—about divine decree. He replied, “Not even a fly moves between two people except by divine decree.” Then he said to the questioner, “Never again ask me about anything of this sort.”
