Musnad Aḥmad 131
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِعَبْدٍ خَيْرًا اسْتَعْمَلَهُ». قَالُوا: وَكَيْفَ يَسْتَعْمِلُهُ؟ قَالَ: «يُوَفِّقُهُ لِعَمَلٍ صَالِحٍ قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ».

Chain: Aḥmad → Muḥammad ibn Abī ʿAdiyy → Ḥumayd al-Ṭawīl → Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) → the Prophet ﷺ. Rijāl: (1) Muḥammad ibn Abī ʿAdiyy al-Sulamī al-Baṣrī: thiqa thabt, d. 194 AH. (2) Ḥumayd al-Ṭawīl al-Baṣrī: thiqa, d. 142 AH. (3) Anas ibn Mālik: Companion, d. ca. 93 AH. Takhrīj: Al-Tirmidhī (2142), who declared it ḥasan ṣaḥīḥ; Ibn Ḥibbān (343); Aḥmad (12036). A closely related wording appears in al-Bukhārī (6497). The narration conveys that divine enabling (tawfīq) toward a righteous act at the close of life is among the clearest signs of Allah's good intent toward a servant. It belongs to the body of texts on ḥusn al-khātimah, the good ending, and is regularly paired with the report that deeds are judged by their endings.
