Question:
This is a question from Ahmad from Riyadh, asking for an explanation of the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih al-Bukhari 6181 It was narrated by al-Bukhari and Muslim.
Answer:
The wording of the hadith isSahih Muslim 2246e. In another hadith, Allah the Exalted says Sahih Muslim 2246b. "The Age" is not among the names of Allah. Rather, the statement of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding Allah is explained by his saying that they have turned the night and the day upside down; what happens in this universe and this age is only by the command of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), whether it is good or evil.
Therefore, the Muslim should attach his heart to Allah, be pleased with the divine decree and destiny of Allah, and not be distressed, not be angry, and not say, "If I had done such and such, then such and such would have happened." Instead, he should say, "It is the decree of Allah, or what Allah willed, He did," for "if" opens the door to the work of Satan. Yes.

May Allah reward you.

Allah said, "The offspring of Adam abuse the Dahr (Time), and I am the Dahr; in My Hands are the night and the day."
الله يسب بني بنو آدم الدهر وأنا الدهر بيدي الليل والنهارAnswer:
The wording of the hadith is
Do not curse Time, for it is Allah Who is Time.
لا تسبوا الدهر فإن الله هو الدهرThe son of Adam displeases Me by abusing Dahr (time), whereas I am Dahr--I alternate the night and the day.
يؤذيني ابن آدم يسب الدهر وأنا الدهر أقلب الليل والنهارI am time
أنا الدهرTherefore, the Muslim should attach his heart to Allah, be pleased with the divine decree and destiny of Allah, and not be distressed, not be angry, and not say, "If I had done such and such, then such and such would have happened."
