[Machine] I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with the intention of not leaving anything regarding righteousness and sin without asking him about it. Whenever there was a congregation around him, I would pass by them and they would say, "Go to him, O Wabisah, and ask him." So, I would say, "I am Wabisah, let me get closer to him, for it is more beloved to me to get closer to him." Then he ﷺ said to me, "Come closer, O Wabisah, come closer, O Wabisah." So, I got closer to him until my knees touched his knees. Then he said, "O Wabisah, shall I inform you of what you came to ask me about or shall you ask me?" I said, "O Messenger of Allah, inform me." He said, "You came to ask me about righteousness and sin?" I said, "Yes." So, he clasped his three fingers together and tapped them on my chest, and said, "O Wabisah, consult your heart regarding righteousness, for it is that which the heart finds contentment with, and consult your soul regarding sin, for it is that which causes doubts in the chest. And if the people give you their opinion and you give them yours..."  

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ لَا أَدَعَ شَيْئًا مِنَ الْبِرِّ وَالْإِثْمِ إِلَّا سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْهُ وَإِذَا عِنْدَهُ جَمْعٌ فَذَهَبْتُ أَتَخَطَّى النَّاسَ فَقَالُوا إِلَيْكَ يَا وَابِصَةُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺإِلَيْكَ يَا وَابِصَةُ فَقُلْتُ أَنَا وَابِصَةُ دَعُونِي أَدْنُو مِنْهُ فَإِنَّهُ مِنْ أَحَبِّ النَّاسِ إِلَيَّ أَنْ أَدْنُوَ مِنْهُ فَقَالَ لِي ادْنُ يَا وَابِصَةُ ادْنُ يَا وَابِصَةُ فَدَنَوْتُ مِنْهُ حَتَّى مَسَّتْ رُكْبَتِي رُكْبَتَهُ فَقَالَ يَا وَابِصَةُ أُخْبِرُكَ مَا جِئْتَ تَسْأَلُنِي عَنْهُ أَوْ تَسْأَلُنِي؟ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَأَخْبِرْنِي قَالَ جِئْتَ تَسْأَلُنِي عَنِ الْبِرِّ وَالْإِثْمِ؟ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَجَمَعَ أَصَابِعَهُ الثَّلَاثَ فَجَعَلَ يَنْكُتُ بِهَا فِي صَدْرِي وَيَقُولُ يَا وَابِصَةُ اسْتَفْتِ نَفْسَكَ الْبِرُّ مَا اطْمَأَنَّ إِلَيْهِ الْقَلْبُ وَاطْمَأَنَّتْ إِلَيْهِ النَّفْسُ وَالْإِثْمُ مَا حَاكَ فِي الْقَلْبِ وَتَرَدَّدَ فِي الصَّدْرِ وَإِنْ أَفْتَاكَ النَّاسُ وَأَفْتَوْكَ  

[Machine] I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and I do not want to leave any good or sinful thing without asking him about it. So I approached him while he was surrounded by a group of Muslims. I tried to bypass them to get closer to him but some of them scolded me. He said to them, "Leave the questioner, let them come closer to me." So he moved closer to me until I was in front of him and he said, "Are you asking me or do you want me to inform you?" I said, "No, you inform me." He said, "You came to ask about good and sinful deeds." I said, "Yes." He gathered his fingers and began poking me in the chest with them, saying, "Good is that which brings tranquility to the soul and peace to the heart, while sin is that which unsettles the soul and causes hesitation in the chest. Even if people give you their opinions, judge according to what I have told you."  

جِئْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَأَنَا لَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَدَعَ مِنَ الْبِرِّ وَالْإِثْمِ شَيْئًا إِلَّا سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْهُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ وَهُوَ فِي عِصَابَةٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ حَوْلَهُ فَجَعَلْتُ أَتَخَطَّاهُمْ لِأَدْنُوَ مِنْهُ فَانْتَهَرَنِي بَعْضُهُمْ فَقَالَ إِلَيْكَ يَا وَابِصَةُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي أَحَبُّ أَنْ أَدْنُوَ مِنْهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «دَعُوا وَابِصَةَ ادْنُ مِنِّي يَا وَابِصَةُ» فَأَدْنَانِي حَتَّى كُنْتُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ «أَتَسْأَلُنِي أَمْ أُخْبِرُكَ؟» فَقُلْتُ لَا بَلْ تُخْبِرَنِي فَقَالَ «جِئْتَ تَسْأَلُ عَنِ الْبِرِّ وَالْإِثْمِ» قُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَجَمَعَ أَنَامِلَهُ فَجَعَلَ يَنْكُثُ بِهِنَّ فِي صَدْرِي وَقَالَ «الْبِرُّ مَا اطْمَأَنَّتْ إِلَيْهِ النَّفْسُ واطْمَأَنَّ إِلَيْهِ الْقَلْبُ وَالْإِثْمُ مَا حَاكَ فِي النَّفْسِ وَتَرَدَّدَ فِي الصَّدْرِ وَإِنْ أَفْتَاكَ النَّاسُ مَا أَفْتُوكَ»
