It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, faith wears out inside one of you (within his breast) just as a garment wears out, so ask Allah to renew the faith in your hearts (to make it fresh again)." This is a hadith that has not been recorded in the "Two Sahihs", while its narrators are trustworthy Egyptians. Imam Muslim, in his "Sahih", used as evidence the chain which he narrated through Ibn Abi Umar from al-Muqri from Haywah from Abu Hani from Abu Abd al-Rahman al-Hubuli from Abdullah bin Amr, that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, Allah Almighty wrote the decrees of the creation before He created the heavens and the earth."
