Sunan Abi Dawud 4709 (Book 42, Hadith 114) #25000
Knowing the Fate of Mankind

SUMMARY: Everyone is helped to do what they were created for, and it is known who will go to paradise and who will go to hell.

'Imran b. Husain said : The Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) was asked : Is it known who are those who will go to paradise and those who will go to hell? He said : Yes. He asked : Then what is the good of doing anything by those who act? He replied : Everyone is helped to do for which he has been created.
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ الرِّشْكِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُطَرِّفٌ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ، قَالَ قِيلَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَعُلِمَ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ قَالَ ‏"‏ نَعَمْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَفِيمَ يَعْمَلُ الْعَامِلُونَ قَالَ ‏"‏ كُلٌّ مُيَسَّرٌ لِمَا خُلِقَ لَهُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the fate of mankind. It tells us that Allah knows who will go to paradise and who will go to hell. He has already decided this before we are even born. However, this does not mean that we should not do good deeds or strive for righteousness in our lives. We are all helped by Allah in doing what we were created for, which is worshipping Him alone and living a life of piety according to His commands. We must remember that our ultimate goal should be pleasing Allah so that He may grant us entry into paradise on the Day of Judgment.
