English translation
2389. An-Nawwās bin Sam'ān narrated that a man came asking the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ about righteousness and sin. So the Prophet ﷺ said: "Righteousness is good behavior, and sin is what fluctuates in your chest, and you would hate that the people discovered it about you." (Sahih) (Another chain) from Mu'āwiyah bin Shālih from 'Abdur-Raḥmān with similar in meanings, except that he (An-Nawwās) said in it: "I asked the Prophet ﷺ." [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Sahih Hasan.
