خَطَبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ فَقَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ وَ اللَّهِ مَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ يُقَرِّبُكُمْ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ وَ يُبَاعِدُكُمْ مِنَ النَّارِ إِلَّا وَ قَدْ أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِهِ وَ مَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ يُقَرِّبُكُمْ مِنَ النَّارِ وَ يُبَاعِدُكُمْ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ إِلَّا وَ قَدْ نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْهُ أَلَا وَ إِنَّ الرُّوحَ الْأَمِينَ نَفَثَ فِي رُوعِي أَنَّهُ لَنْ تَمُوتَ نَفْسٌ حَتَّى تَسْتَكْمِلَ رِزْقَهَا فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَ أَجْمِلُوا فِي الطَّلَبِ وَ لَا يَحْمِلْ أَحَدَكُمْ اسْتِبْطَاءُ شَيْءٍ مِنَ الرِّزْقِ أَنْ يَطْلُبَهُ بِغَيْرِ حِلِّهِ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يُدْرَكُ مَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ إِلَّا بِطَاعَتِهِ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Fazzal, from Aasim Bin Humeyd, from Abu Hamza Al Sumaly, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> having said: ‘Rasool-Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">saww</sup> addressed (the people) during the farewell Hajj, so he<sup style="font-weight: normal">saww</sup> said: ‘O you people! By Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup>! There is none from the things which brings you closer to the Paradise and distance you from the Fire except that I<sup style="font-weight: normal">saww</sup> have ordered you with it; and there is none from a thing which brings you closer to the Fire and distances you from the Paradise, except that I<sup style="font-weight: normal">saww</sup> have forbidden you from it. Indeed! And the trustworthy spirit (Jibraeel<sup style="font-weight: normal">as</sup>) blew into my<sup style="font-weight: normal">saww</sup> person that not a soul would be dying until its sustenance is completed. Therefore, fear Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> and be vigorous in the seeking (of the livelihood), and not one of you should bear indolence for anything from the sustenance if he seeks it without its Permissibility, for whatever is in the Presence of Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> cannot be realised except being in His<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> obedience’.
