Hadith 23:121

Ibn Fudayl narrated to us, from ‘Ata’ ibn al-Sa’ib, from Muharib ibn Dithar, from Ibn Buraydah, from Ibn Ya’mar, who said: We arrived in Medina and came to ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar. We said: "O Abu ‘Abd al-Rahman, we travel in the land and meet people who claim that there is no Qadar (divine decree)." He said: "Are they from the Muslims, from those who pray towards the Qibla?" He said: "Then he became angry until I wished that I had not asked him. Then he said: 'If you meet those people, inform them that ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar is innocent of them, and they are innocent of him.'" Then he said: "If you wish, I will narrate to you from the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace." He said: "Yes." He said: "We were with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, when a man came to him, good of clothing, pleasant of scent, and handsome of face. He said: 'O Messenger of Allah, what is Islam?' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: 'You establish the prayer, give the Zakat, fast Ramadan, perform Hajj to the House, and perform Ghusl from Janaba.' He said: 'You have spoken the truth. So what is Iman?' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: 'You believe in Allah, the Last Day, the angels, the Book, the prophets, and in Qadar, all of it—its good and its evil, its sweet and its bitter.' He said: 'You have spoken the truth.' Then he departed." The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: "Bring the man to me." He said: "So we all stood up, but we could not find him." The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: "This is Jibril; he came to you to teach you your religion."

حدثنا بن فضيل عن عطاء بن السائب عن محارب بن دثار عن بن بريدة عن بن يعمر قال وردنا بالمدينة فأتينا عبد الله بن عمر فقلنا يا أبا عبد الرحمن إنا نمعن في الأرض فنلقى قوما يزعمون أن لا قدر فقال من المسلمين ممن يصلي إلى القبلة قال فغضب حتى وددت أني لم أكن سألته ثم قال إذا لقيت اولئك فأخبرهم أن عبد الله بن عمر منهم بريء وأنهم منه براء ثم قال إن شئت حدثتك عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال اجل فقال كنا عند رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فأتاه رجل جيد الثياب طيب الريح حسن الوجه فقال يا رسول الله ما الإسلام قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم تقيم الصلاة وتؤتي الزكاة وتصوم رمضان وتحج البيت وتغتسل من الجنابة قال صدقت فما الإيمان قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم تؤمن بالله واليوم الآخر والملائكة والكتاب والنبيين وبالقدر كله خيره وشره وحلوه ومره قال صدقت ثم أنصرف فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم علي بالرجل قال فقمنا بأجمعنا فلم نقدر عليه فقال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم هذا جبريل أتاكم يعلمكم دينكم
