1609 - لا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفساً إلّا وُسعَها

1609. ALLAH DOES NOT TASK ANY SOUL

(لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْساً إِلَّا وُسْعَها لَها ما كَسَبَتْ وَعَلَيْها ما اكْتَسَبَتْ) .1

"Allah does not task any soul beyond its capacity." 2

5567.رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله : وُضِعَ عن اُمّتي تِسعُ خِصالٍ : الخَطاءُ ، والنِّسيانُ ، وما لا يَعلَمونَ ، وما لا يُطيقُونَ، وما اضطُرُّوا إلَيهِ ، وما استُكرِهُوا علَيهِ ، والطِّيَرَةُ ، والوَسوَسَةُ في التَّفَكُّرِ في الخَلقِ ، والحَسَدُ ما لم يَظهَرْ بلِسانٍ أو يَدٍ .3

5567.The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'Nine things have been forgiven to my community: the mistake, forgetfulness, that which they do not know, that which they cannot bear, that which they are forced to do, that which they are compelled to do, the evil omen, [Satan's] insinuations in thinking about [the origin of] creation, and jealousy that is not manifest on the tongue or the hand.' 4

5568.الإمامُ الصّادقُ عليه السلام: ما اُمِرَ العِبادُ إلّا بِدُونِ سَعَتِهِم ، فُكلُّ شي‏ءٍ اُمِرَ النّاسُ بأخذِهِ فهُم مُتَّسِعونَ لَهُ ، وما لا يَتَّسِعونَ لَهُ فهُو مَوضوعٌ عَنهُم .5

5568.Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, 'Creation was never ordered outside of their capability, for whatever people were ordered to do they are capable of doing, and whatever they are not capable of doing does not apply to them.' 6
