Saʿd bin 'Ubada said, "If I saw a man with my wife, I would strike him (behead him) with the blade of my sword." This news reached Messenger of Allah ﷺ who then said, "You people are astonished at Saʿd's Ghira. By Allah, I have more Ghira than he, and Allah has more Ghira than I, and because of Allah's Ghira, He has made unlawful Shameful deeds and sins (illegal sexual intercourse etc.) done in open and in secret. And there is none who likes that the people should repent to Him and beg His pardon than Allah, and for this reason He sent the warners and the givers of good news. And there is none who likes to be praised more than Allah does, and for this reason, Allah promised to grant Paradise (to the doers of good)." ʿAbdul Malik said, "No person has more Ghira than Allah."  

سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ لَوْ رَأَيْتُ رَجُلاً مَعَ امْرَأَتِي لَضَرَبْتُهُ بِالسَّيْفِ غَيْرَ مُصْفَحٍ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ تَعْجَبُونَ مِنْ غَيْرَةِ سَعْدٍ وَاللَّهِ لأَنَا أَغْيَرُ مِنْهُ وَاللَّهُ أَغْيَرُ مِنِّي وَمِنْ أَجْلِ غَيْرَةِ اللَّهِ حَرَّمَ الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ وَلاَ أَحَدَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ الْعُذْرُ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَمِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ بَعَثَ الْمُبَشِّرِينَ وَالْمُنْذِرِينَ وَلاَ أَحَدَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ الْمِدْحَةُ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَمِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةَ وَقَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ لاَ شَخْصَ أَغْيَرُ مِنَ اللَّهِ  

If I were to see a man with my wife, I would have struck him with the sword, and not with the flat part (side) of it. When Messenger of Allah ﷺ heard of that, he said: Are you surprised at Sa'd's jealousy of his honour? By Allah, I am more jealous of my honour than he, and Allah is more jealous than I. Because of His jealousy Allah has prohibited abomination, both open and secret And no person is more jealous of his honour than Allah, and no persons, is more fond of accepting an excuse than Allah, on account of which He has sent messengers, announcers of glad tidings and warners; and no one is more fond of praise than Allah on account of which Allah has promised Paradise.  

سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ لَوْ رَأَيْتُ رَجُلاً مَعَ امْرَأَتِي لَضَرَبْتُهُ بِالسَّيْفِ غَيْرَ مُصْفِحٍ عَنْهُ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَتَعْجَبُونَ مِنْ غَيْرَةِ سَعْدٍ فَوَاللَّهِ لأَنَا أَغْيَرُ مِنْهُ وَاللَّهُ أَغْيَرُ مِنِّي مِنْ أَجْلِ غَيْرَةِ اللَّهِ حَرَّمَ الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ وَلاَ شَخْصَ أَغْيَرُ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَلاَ شَخْصَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ الْعُذْرُ مِنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ بَعَثَ اللَّهُ الْمُرْسَلِينَ مُبَشِّرِينَ وَمُنْذِرِينَ وَلاَ شَخْصَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ الْمِدْحَةُ مِنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةَ  

Saʿd bin Ubada said, "If I found a man with my wife, I would kill him with the sharp side of my sword." When the Prophet ﷺ heard that he said, "Do you wonder at Saʿd's sense of ghira (self-respect)? Verily, I have more sense of ghira than Saʿd, and Allah has more sense of ghira than I." (Using translation from Bukhārī 6846)  

سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ لَوْ رَأَيْتُ رَجُلًا مَعَ امْرَأَتِي لَضَرَبْتُهُ بِالسَّيْفِ غَيْرَ مُصْفَحٍ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَتَعْجَبُونَ مِنْ غَيْرَةِ سَعْدٍ فَوَاللهِ لَأَنَا أَغْيَرُ مِنْهُ وَاللهُ أَغْيَرُ مِنِّي وَمِنْ أَجْلِ غَيْرَةِ اللهِ حَرَّمَ الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَابَطَنَ وَلَا شَخْصَ أَغْيَرُ مِنَ اللهِ وَلَا شَخْصَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ الْعُذْرُ مِنَ اللهِ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ بَعَثَ اللهُ الْمُرْسَلِينَ مُبَشِّرِينَ وَمُنْذِرِينَ وَلَا شَخْصَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِدْحَةٌ مِنَ اللهِ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ وَعَدَ اللهُ الْجَنَّةَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was informed that Sa'd ibn Ubada said, "If I found a man with her, I would strike her with a sword, not sparing her." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Are you surprised by Sa'd's jealousy? I am more jealous than Sa'd, and Allah is more jealous than me. That is why He has forbidden the committing of indecent acts, whether openly or in secret. No one is more jealous than Allah, and I am the most beloved to Him when seeking forgiveness. That is why Allah sent prophets as bearers of good news and warners. No one is more beloved to Him than the one who praises Allah, and that is why He has promised Paradise."  

بَلَغَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّ سَعْدَ بْنَ عُبَادَةَ يَقُولُ لَوْ وَجَدْتُ مَعَهَا رَجُلًا لَضَرَبْتُهَا بِالسَّيْفِ غَيْرَ مُصْفَحٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَتَعْجَبُونَ مِنْ غَيْرَةِ سَعْدٍ أَنَا أَغَيْرُ مِنْ سَعْدٍ وَاللَّهُ أَغَيْرُ مِنِّي وَلِذَلِكَ حَرَّمَ الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ وَلَا شَخْصَ أَغَيْرُ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَلَا أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ الْمَعَاذِيرِ وَلِذَلِكَ بَعَثَ النَّبِيِّينَ مُبَشِّرِينَ وَمُنْذِرِينَ وَلَا شَخْصَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ الْمَدْحُ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَلِذَلِكَ وَعَدَ الْجَنَّةَ»  

[Machine] "If I had caught him, I would have struck him with a sword, and I mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ , and he said, 'I am more forbearing than Sa'd, and by Allah, none loves being pardoned more than Allah, for which He sent the messengers, and none loves praise more than Allah, for which He promised Paradise.'"  

لَوْ أَدْرَكْتُهُ لَضَرَبْتُهُ بِالسَّيْفِ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «أَنَا أَغْيَرُ مِنْ سَعْدٍ وَاللَّهُ أَغْيَرُ مِنِّي وَمَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ الْعُذْرُ مِنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ بَعَثَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَمَا أَحَدٌ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ الْمَدْحُ مِنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ وَعَدَ الْجَنَّةَ»

And there is no praise more beloved to Him than the praise from Allah. And because of this, He promised Paradise." And the wording is from the hadith of Abu Al-Walid.  

سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ لَوْ رَأَيْتُ رَجُلًا مَعَ امْرَأَتِي لَضَرَبْتُهُ بِالسَّيْفِ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «أَتَعْجَبُونَ مِنْ غَيْرَةِ سَعْدٍ؟ فَوَاللهِ لَأَنَا أَغْيَرُ مِنْ سَعْدٍ وَاللهُ أَغْيَرُ مِنِّي وَمِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ حَرَّمَ الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهْرَ وَمَا بَطْنَ مِنْهَا وَلَا شَخَصَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ الْعُذْرُ مِنَ اللهِ ﷻ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ بَعَثَ رُسُلَهُ مُبَشِّرِينَ وَمُنْذِرِينَ وَلَا شَخَصَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ الْمِدْحَةُ مِنَ اللهِ ﷻ وَمِنْ ذَلِكَ وَعَدَ الْجَنَّةَ» وَاللَّفْظُ لِحَدِيثِ أَبِي الْوَلِيدِ  

"لا أَحَدَ أَغْيَرُ منَ الله، ولذلِكَ حَرَمَ الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ، وَلا أحَدَ أَحَبُّ إِليهِ المدْحُ مِن الله ولَذلكَ مَدَحَ نَفْسَهُ، ولا أَحَدَ أَحَبُّ إِليه الْعُذْرُ مِنَ الله، ، مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلك أَنْزلَ الْكِتَابَ وَأَرْسَلَ الرُّسُلَ".  

"أَنَا أغير من سعدٍ واللَّهُ أَغيرُ منِّى، وما من أَحد أَحبُّ إِليه العذرُ

من اللَّه، من أَجْلِ ذلك بعثَ المرسلين، وما أَحدٌ أَحبَّ إِليه المدح من اللَّه، من أَجل ذلك وعد الجنَّة" .
