A man asked permission to see the Prophet ﷺ, and he said: He is a bad son of the tribe, or: He is a bad member of the tribe. He then said : Give him permission. Then when he entered, he spoke to him leniently. ʿA’isha asked : Apostle of Allah! You spoke to him leniently while you said about him what you said! He replied: The one who will have the worst position in Allah’s estimation on the Day of Resurrection will be the one whom people left alone for fear of his ribaldry. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4791)
أَنَّ رَجُلًا اسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ ائْذَنُوا لَهُ فَبِئْسَ ابْنُ الْعَشِيرَةِ أَوْ بِئْسَ أَخُو الْعَشِيرَةِ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً رَجُلٌ فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ أَلَانَ لَهُ الْقَوْلَ فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ قُلْتَ لَهُ الَّذِي قُلْتَ ثُمَّ أَلَنْتَ لَهُ الْقَوْلَ فَقَالَ أَيْ عَائِشَةُ شَرُّ النَّاسِ مَنْزِلَةً عِنْدَ اللهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَنْ وَدَعَهُ النَّاسُ أَوْ تَرَكَهُ النَّاسُ اتِّقَاءَ فُحْشِهِ
