83 – Muḥammad ibn ʿAlī ibn al-Ḥasan narrated to us; from Ibrāhīm ibn al-Ashʿath; from al-Fuḍayl ibn ʿIyāḍ; from Sulaymān; from Khaythamah, who said: ʿAbd Allāh declared, “By Him other than whom there is no deity, no believing servant has been granted anything better than holding a good opinion of Allah. And by Him other than whom there is no deity, no servant ever thinks well of Allah without Allah granting him what he expected, for all goodness is in His Hand.”
٨٣ - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ الْأَشْعَثِ، عَنِ الْفُضَيْلِ بْنِ عِيَاضٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ خَيْثَمَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: «وَالَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُهُ مَا أُعْطِيَ عَبْدٌ مُؤْمِنٌ شَيْئًا خَيْرًا مِنْ حُسْنِ الظَّنِّ بِاللَّهِ ﷿ وَالَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُهُ لَا يُحْسِنُ عَبْدٌ بِاللَّهِ ﷿ الظَّنَّ إِلَّا أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ ﷿ ظَنُّهُ ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّ الْخَيْرَ فِي يَدِهِ»
