[Machine] Narrated by the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ , he said, "If you are forgiven for what you approach animals with, you will be forgiven much."  

أحمد:٢٧٤٨٦ – حَدَّثَنَا هَيْثَمُ بْنُ خَارِجَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ عُتْبَةَ السُّلَمِيُّ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ بْنِ حَلْبَسٍ عَنْ أَبِي إِدْرِيسَ عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لَوْ غُفِرَ لَكُمْ مَا تَأْتُونَ إِلَى الْبَهَائِمِ لَغُفِرَ لَكُمْ كَثِيرًا
