English translation
[6569] (2574) It was narrated that Abū Hurairah said: “When the Verse ‘Whosoever works evil, will have the recompense thereof,’[1] was revealed, the Muslims were greatly troubled. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: ‘Do the best that you reasonably can, and try to do what is right, for in everything that befalls the Muslim there is expiation, even if he stumbles or is pricked by a thorn.’”
