[2137] 12 - (924) It was narrated that 'Abdullāh bin 'Umar said: "Sa'd bin 'Ubâdah fell sick and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ came to visit him with 'Abdur-Rahmân bin 'Awf, Sa'd bin Abî Waqqâs and 'Abdullâh bin Mas'ûd. When he entered upon him, he found him unconscious and he said: 'Has he died?' They said: 'No, O Messenger of Allâh.' The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ wept, and when the people saw the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ weeping, they also wept. He said: 'Have you not heard? Allâh does not punish for the tears of the eye or the grief of the heart, rather He punishes for this' - and he pointed to his tongue - 'or shows mercy (because of it).'"

Arabic text

12 - (924) حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى الصَّدَفِيُّ، وَعَمْرُو بْنُ سَوَّادٍ الْعَامِرِيُّ، قَالَا: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: اشْتَكَى سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ شَكْوَى لَهُ، فَأَتَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَعُودُهُ مَعَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ، وَسَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ، وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ وَجَدَهُ فِي غَشِيَّةٍ، فَقَالَ: «أَقَدْ قَضَى؟» قَالُوا: لَا، يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَبَكَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى الْقَوْمُ بُكَاءَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَكَوْا، فَقَالَ: «أَلَا تَسْمَعُونَ؟ إِنَّ اللهَ لَا يُعَذِّبُ بِدَمْعِ الْعَيْنِ، وَلَا بِحُزْنِ الْقَلْبِ، وَلَكِنْ يُعَذِّبُ بِهَذَا - وَأَشَارَ إِلَى لِسَانِهِ - أَوْ يَرْحَمُ»
