[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Do not let the fear of people prevent you from speaking the truth when you see it or witness it. Verily, it does not bring one closer to death nor push away sustenance to speak the truth or remind others of the greatness of Allah."  

أحمد:١١٤٧٤حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ عَنِ الْمُعَلَّى الْقُرْدُوسِيِّ عَنْ الْحَسَنِعَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَلَا لَا يَمْنَعَنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ رَهْبَةُ النَّاسِ أَنْ يَقُولَ بِحَقٍّ إِذَا رَآهُ أَوْ شَهِدَهُ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يُقَرِّبُ مِنْ أَجَلٍ وَلَا يُبَاعِدُ مِنْ رِزْقٍ أَنْ يَقُولَ بِحَقٍّ أَوْ يُذَكِّرَ بِعَظِيمٍ

"أَلَا لَا يمْنَعَنَّ أَحدَكُمْ رَهْبةُ النَّاسِ أنْ يقولَ الحقَّ إِذَا رآهُ، وأَنْ يذْكُرَ تَعْظِيم اللَّهِ، فإِنَّهُ لا يُقَرِّبُ مِنْ أجَلٍ وَلَا يُبعِدُ مِنْ رزق".
