ahmad-zuhd:1789ʿAbdullāh from my father > Wakīʿ > Ibn ʿAwn > Muḥammad

[Machine] It is said, "Indeed, when a man wishes for goodness, he will have a companion from Allah who commands him to do good and prohibits him from evil."  

الزهد لأحمد:١٧٨٩حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنِ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ كَانَ

يُقَالُ «إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ إِذَا أَرَادَ الْخَيْرَ كَانَ لَهُ زَاجِرًا مِنَ اللَّهِ يَأْمُرُهُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَنْهَاهُ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ»
