English translation

5012. It was narrated that Târiq bin Shihâb said: "Abû Sa'eed Al-Khudrî said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: Whoever among you sees an evil and changes it with his hand, then he has done his duty. Whoever is unable to do that, but changes it with his tongue, then he has done his duty. Whoever is unable to do that, but changes it with his heart, then he has done his duty, and that is the weakest of Faith.'" (Sahîh)

Arabic text

5009 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مَخْلَدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ مِغْوَلٍ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ: قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيُّ، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «مَنْ رَأَى مُنْكَرًا فَغَيَّرَهُ بِيَدِهِ فَقَدْ بَرِئَ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ يُغَيِّرَهُ بِيَدِهِ، فَغَيَّرَهُ بِلِسَانِهِ فَقَدْ بَرِئَ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ يُغَيِّرَهُ بِلِسَانِهِ، فَغَيَّرَهُ بِقَلْبِهِ فَقَدْ بَرِئَ، وَذَلِكَ أَضْعَفُ الْإِيمَانِ»

Commentary

We get to learn that witnessing the sin taking place is also a sin, except for the one who fulfills his duty imposed upon him by the Shar'iah.
