Everything is decreed, even incapacity and capacity, or capacity and incapacity

Explanation

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) pointed out that everything is decreed, even incapacity, which is failure to do what should be done - in matters of this world and the Hereafter - and procrastinating and delaying it beyond its due time; and even capacity, which is vigor and proficiency in matters of worldly life and the Hereafter; and that Allah Almighty had predestined capacity and incapacity, and everything that happens in the universe had already been known and willed by Allah.

Lessons from the hadith

• Everything happens by Allah's predestination, even people's incapacity and vigor.
• The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) were cautious and meticulous in conveying the Prophet's Hadīths.
