عربی (اصل)
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ سَمِعْتُ سَالِمَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ عُمَرَ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ مَا نَعْمَلُ فِيهِ أَمْرٌ مُبْتَدَعٌ أَوْ مُبْتَدَأٌ أَوْ أَمْرٌ قَدْ فُرِغَ مِنْهُ قَالَ أَمْرٌ قَدْ فُرِغَ مِنْهُ فَاعْمَلْ يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ فَإِنَّ كُلًّا مُيَسَّرٌ فَأَمَّا مَنْ كَانَ مِنْ أَهْلِ السَّعَادَةِ فَإِنَّهُ يَعْمَلُ لِلسَّعَادَةِ وَمَنْ كَانَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الشَّقَاءِ فَإِنَّهُ يَعْمَلُ لِلشَّقَاءِ.

Affan told us, Shu'bah told us, from Asim ibn Ubayd Allah: I heard Salim ibn Abd Allah narrating from his father, that Umar said: "O Messenger of Allah, do you consider what we do to be a newly-invented matter, a matter just begun, or a matter already concluded?" He said: "A matter already concluded, so act, O Ibn al-Khattab, for everything has been made easy: as for the one destined for felicity, he works toward felicity; and the one destined for misery works toward misery."
