English

Umm Ad-Darda (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated: "I heard Abu Ad-Darda say, 'I heard Abu Al-Qasim (the Prophet (ﷺ)) say, "Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, said, 'O Isa, I will send after you a nation who, when they are given what they love, praise Me, and when they are afflicted with what they dislike, they seek reward and are patient. They have no wisdom or understanding.' Isa asked, 'O Lord, how can this be for them without wisdom or understanding?' Allah replied, 'I will grant them from My wisdom and knowledge.'"'"

[Narrated by Al-Bayhaqi in Shu'ab Al-Iman]
