Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا حِبَّانُ بْنُ مُوسَى، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَيْرِيزٍ الْجُمَحِيُّ، أَنَّ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ، بَيْنَمَا هُوَ جَالِسٌ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنِ الأَنْصَارِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا نُصِيبُ سَبْيًا وَنُحِبُّ الْمَالَ، كَيْفَ تَرَى فِي الْعَزْلِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ أَوَإِنَّكُمْ تَفْعَلُونَ ذَلِكَ، لاَ عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ لاَ تَفْعَلُوا، فَإِنَّهُ لَيْسَتْ نَسَمَةٌ كَتَبَ اللَّهُ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ إِلاَّ هِيَ كَائِنَةٌ ‏"‏‏.‏

Translation

Hibban ibn Musa narrated to us; Abdullah informed us; Yunus informed us, from al-Zuhri, who said: Abdullah ibn Muhayriz al-Jumahi informed me that Abu Sa'id al-Khudri told him: While I was sitting with the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, a man from the Ansar came and said, ‘Messenger of Allah, we take captives and desire wealth. What do you think of coitus interruptus?’ The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: ‘Do you really do that? It is no harm if you do not do it, for every soul that Allah has decreed to come into existence will indeed come into existence.’
