"Whoever does evil will be requited for it", and when this was conveyed to the Muslims they were greatly perturbed. Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Be moderate and stand firm in trouble that falls to the lot of a Muslim (as that) is an expiation for him; even stumbling on the path or the pricking of a thorn (are an expiation for him). Muslim said that 'Umar b. Abd al-Rahman Muhaisin was from amongst the people of Mecca.  

مسلم:٢٥٧٤ – حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ كِلاَهُمَا عَنِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ وَاللَّفْظُ لِقُتَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ ابْنِ مُحَيْصِنٍ شَيْخٍ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ سَمِعَ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ قَيْسِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ { مَنْ يَعْمَلْ سُوءًا يُجْزَ بِهِ} بَلَغَتْ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ مَبْلَغًا شَدِيدًا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَارِبُوا وَسَدِّدُوا فَفِي كُلِّ مَا يُصَابُ بِهِ الْمُسْلِمُ كَفَّارَةٌ حَتَّى النَّكْبَةِ يُنْكَبُهَا أَوِ الشَّوْكَةِ يُشَاكُهَا قَالَ مُسْلِمٌ هُوَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مُحَيْصِنٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ

ahmad:7386 – Sufyān > Ibn Muḥayṣin Shaykh from Quraysh Sahmī Samiʿah from Muḥammad b. Qays b. Makhramah > Abū Hurayrah

[Machine] When the verse "Whoever does evil will be recompensed for it" [An-Nisa 123] was revealed, it caused distress among the Muslims and reached a point where it led to complaints being made to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . The Messenger of Allah ﷺ told them to draw near and strive to do righteous deeds. He informed them that every affliction a Muslim faces serves as expiation for his sins, even a thorn that pricks him.  

أحمد:٧٣٨٦ – حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ مُحَيْصِنٍ شَيْخٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ سَهْمِيٌّ سَمِعَهُ مِنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ قَيْسِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ {مَنْ يَعْمَلْ سُوءًا يُجْزَ بِهِ} [النساء 123] شَقَّتْ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَبَلَغَتْ مِنْهُمْ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْتَبْلُغَ فَشَكَوْا ذَلِكَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَارِبُوا وَسَدِّدُوا فَكُلُّ مَا يُصَابُ بِهِ الْمُسْلِمُ كَفَّارَةٌ حَتَّى النَّكْبَةِ يُنْكَبُهَا وَالشَّوْكَةِ يُشَاكُهَا
