English Translation
Suraqah ibn Malik ibn Ju'shum al-Mudliji said: "O Messenger of Allah, do we work for something already decided, or do we begin work anew?" He said: "Rather, for work already decided." He said: "O Messenger of Allah, then what is the purpose of work?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Each person is facilitated for his work." He said: "O Messenger of Allah, now is the time for earnest effort! Now is the time for earnest effort!"
