4166. It was narrated that 'Ubâdah bin Aş-Şâmit said: "While there was a group of his Companions around him, the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Pledge to me, that you will not associate anything with Allâh, nor steal, nor commit unlawful sexual relations, nor kill your children; you will not utter slander, fabricating from between your hands and feet, and you will not disobey me in goodness (Ma'rûf). Whoever fulfills (this pledge), his reward will be with Allâh, and whoever commits any of these actions and is punished for it, it will be an expiation for him. Whoever commits any of these actions then Allāh conceals him, then his affair is up to Allāh; if He wills He will forgive him, and if He wills He will punish him.” (Ṣaḥīḥ) Ahmad bin Sa’eed contradicted him.
