[Machine] I came to the Prophet ﷺ , and he was sitting with his companions. I asked, "Who among you is the Prophet?" He replied, "Either he will lower his gaze towards himself or the people will point to him." Then, I saw a man wearing a white robe, and its hem was on his feet. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, I abstain from certain things, so teach me." He said, "Fear Allah and do not belittle any act of kindness, even if it is pouring water from your bucket into the vessel of a person looking for water. And beware of suspicion, for Allah does not like suspicion. If someone insults you and accuses you of something he knows about you, do not accuse him of something you know about him, for then you will bear the sin and he will bear the reward. And do not revile anyone."  

أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَإِذَا هُوَ جَالِسٌ مَعَ أَصْحَابِهِ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ أَيُّكُمُ النَّبِيُّ قَالَ فَإِمَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ أَوْمَأَ إِلَى نَفْسِهِ وَإِمَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ أَشَارَ إِلَيْهِ الْقَوْمُ قَالَ فَإِذَا هُوَ مُحْتَبٍ بِبُرْدَةٍ قَدْ وَقَعَ هُدْبُهَا عَلَى قَدَمَيْهِ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَجْفُو عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ فَعَلِّمْنِي قَالَ اتَّقِ اللهَ وَلَا تَحْقِرَنَّ مِنَ الْمَعْرُوفِ شَيْئًا وَلَوْ أَنْ تُفْرِغَ مِنْ دَلْوِكَ فِي إِنَاءِ الْمُسْتَسْقِي وَإِيَّاكَ وَالْمَخِيلَةَ فَإِنَّ اللهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمَخِيلَةَ وَإِنْ امْرُؤٌ شَتَمَكَ وَعَيَّرَكَ بِأَمْرٍ يَعْلَمُهُ فِيكَ فَلَا تُعَيِّرْهُ بِأَمْرٍ تَعْلَمُهُ فِيهِ فَيَكُونَ لَكَ أَجْرُهُ وَعَلَيْهِ إِثْمُهُ وَلَا تَشْتُمَنَّ أَحَدًا  

[Machine] I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, we are a people from the desert, so teach us something that Allah may benefit us with." He ﷺ replied, "Do not belittle any good deed, even if it is just scooping water from your bucket into the vessel of someone seeking water. And if you speak to your brother, face him with a relaxed countenance. And beware of dragging your garment, for it is from pride, and Allah does not love pride. And if a person insults you for something they know about you, do not insult them for something you know about them. Surely, the reward is yours and the harm is upon the one who said it."  

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّا قَوْمٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ فَعَلِّمْنَا شَيْئًا يَنْفَعُنَا اللهُ بِهِ قَالَ لَا تَحْقِرَنَّ مِنَ الْمَعْرُوفِ شَيْئًا وَلَوْ أَنْ تُفْرِغَ مِنْ دَلْوِكَ فِي إِنَاءِ الْمُسْتَسْقِي وَلَوْ أَنْ تُكَلِّمَ أَخَاكَ وَوَجْهُكَ إِلَيْهِ مُنْبَسِطٌ وَإِيَّاكَ وَتَسْبِيلَ الْإِزَارِ فَإِنَّهُ مِنَ الْخُيَلَاءِ وَالْخُيَلَاءُ لَا يُحِبُّهَا اللهُ وَإِنْ امْرُؤٌ سَبَّكَ بِمَا يَعْلَمُ فِيكَ فَلَا تَسُبَّهُ بِمَا تَعْلَمُ فِيهِ فَإِنَّ أَجْرَهُ لَكَ وَوَبَالَهُ عَلَى مَنْ قَالَهُ  

[Machine] "I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was wearing a cloak and its fringes had fallen on his feet. So, I said, 'Which one of you is Muhammad? Or is it the Messenger of Allah?' He pointed to himself with his hand, and I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, I am from the people of the desert and they treat me badly. Advise me.' He said, 'Do not belittle any act of kindness, even if you meet your brother with a cheerful face while you empty your bucket into his container to fetch water. And if someone insults you with something they know about you, do not insult them with something you know about them, for then it will be their burden and reward on you. And beware of letting your garment hang below your ankles, for indeed, letting the garment hang below the ankles is from arrogance. And Allah does not love arrogance. And do not abuse anyone, for I have not abused anyone since the day I was given revelation, and neither a sheep nor a camel."  

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ مُحْتَبٍ بِشَمْلَةٍ لَهُ وَقَدْ وَقَعَ هُدْبُهَا عَلَى قَدَمَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ أَيُّكُمْ مُحَمَّدٌ؟ أَوْ رَسُولُ اللهِ فَأَوْمَأَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى نَفْسِهِ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ وَفِيَّ جَفَاؤُهُمْ فَأَوْصِنِي فَقَالَ لَا تَحْقِرَنَّ مِنَ الْمَعْرُوفِ شَيْئًا وَلَوْ أَنْ تَلْقَى أَخَاكَ وَوَجْهُكَ مُنْبَسِطٌ وَلَوْ أَنْتُفْرِغَ مِنْ دَلْوِكَ فِي إِنَاءِ الْمُسْتَسْقِي وَإِنْ امْرُؤٌ شَتَمَكَ بِمَا يَعْلَمُ فِيكَ فَلَا تَشْتُمْهُ بِمَا تَعْلَمُ فِيهِ فَإِنَّهُ يَكُونُ لَكَ أَجْرُهُ وَعَلَيْهِ وِزْرُهُ وَإِيَّاكَ وَإِسْبَالَ الْإِزَارِ فَإِنَّ إِسْبَالَ الْإِزَارِ مِنَ الْمَخِيلَةِ وَإِنَّ اللهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمَخِيلَةَ وَلَا تَسُبَّنَّ أَحَدًا فَمَا سَبَبْتُ بَعْدَهُ أَحَدًا وَلَا شَاةً وَلَا بَعِيرًا  

[Machine] I approached the Prophetﷺ while he was wearing a cloak, and its hem was touching his feet. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, advise me." He said, "You should be mindful of Allah and not belittle any act of goodness, even if it is just pouring water from your bucket into the vessel of the one who seeks water, and you should speak kindly to your brother while facing him with a smiling face. And beware of tucking your garment beneath your knees [out of pride], as this is from arrogance, and Allah does not love arrogance. If someone criticizes you for something he knows about you, do not criticize him for something you know about him. Let him be with his own faults, and his retribution will be upon himself. And do not curse anyone." Then I did not insult any living being after that (Saheeh Muslim).  

انْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَهُوَ مُحْتَبٌ فِي بُرْدَةٍ لَهُ وَإِنَّ هُدْبَهَا لَعَلَى قَدَمَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَوْصِنِي قَالَ «عَلَيْكَ بِاتِّقَاءِ اللَّهِ وَلَا تَحْقِرَنَّ مِنَ الْمَعْرُوفِ شَيْئًا وَلَوْ أَنْ تُفْرِغَ مِنْ دَلْوِكَ فِي إِنَاءِ الْمُسْتَقِي وَتُكَلِّمَ أَخَاكَ وَوَجْهُكَ إِلَيْهِ مُنْبَسِطٌ وَإِيَّاكَ وَإِسْبَالَ الْإِزَارِ فَإِنَّهَا مِنَ الْمَخِيلَةِ وَلَا يُحِبُّهَا اللَّهُ وَإِنِ امْرُؤٌ عَيَّرَكَ بِشَيْءٍ يَعْلَمُهُ فِيكَ فَلَا تُعَيِّرْهُ بِشَيْءٍ تَعْلَمُهُ مِنْهُ دَعْهُ يَكُونُ وَبَالُهُ عَلَيْهِ وَأَجْرُهُ لَكَ وَلَا تَسُبَّنَّ شَيْئًا» قَالَ فَمَا سَبَبْتُ بَعْدَهُ دَابَّةً وَلَا إِنْسَانًا  

[Machine] I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, we are a people from the desert. Teach us something that will benefit us with Allah." He said, "Do not belittle any good deed, even if it is pouring the water from your bucket into the vessel of someone seeking water. And if you talk to your brother with a relaxed face while facing him, and beware of dragging your garment below the ankles, for it is from arrogance and Allah does not like it. And if someone speaks ill of you with something that he knows about you, do not retaliate with something that you know about him, for his reward will be upon you and his sin will be upon him."  

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا قَوْمٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ فَعَلِّمْنَا شَيْئًا يَنْفَعُنَا اللَّهُ بِهِ فقَالَ «لَا تَحْقِرَنَّ مِنَ الْمَعْرُوفِ شَيْئًا وَلَوْ أَنْ تُفْرِغَ مِنْ دَلْوِكَ فِي إِنَاءِ الْمُسْتَسْقِي وَلَوْ أَنْ تُكَلِّمَ أَخَاكَ وَوَجْهُكَ إِلَيْهِ مُنْبَسِطٌ وَإِيَّاكَ وَإِسْبَالَ الْإِزَارِ فَإِنَّهُ مِنَ الْمَخِيلَةِ وَلَا يُحِبُّهَا اللَّهُ وَإِنِ امْرُؤٌ شَتَمَكَ بِمَا يَعْلَمُ فِيكَ فَلَا تَشْتُمْهُ بِمَا تَعْلَمُ فِيهِ فَإِنَّ أَجْرَهُ لَكَ وَوَبَالَهُ عَلَى مَنْ قَالَهُ»  

[Machine] I heard about the Prophet ﷺ, so I called for my mount and said, "I will come to this man so that I may listen to something from him." So I went to him and found him sitting, wrapped in a cloak. I heard him answering a questioner, saying, "Do not belittle any act of goodness, even if it is to pour water from your bucket into the vessel of one who seeks water, and be cautious of accusing others and making false statements about them. If someone slanders you or says something untrue about you, do not retaliate with slander or say something about them that is not true. Instead, you will earn his reward and the burden will be on him. Do not curse anyone." Therefore, since I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbidding cursing, I have not cursed any camel, sheep, or person.  

سَمِعْتُ بِالنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَدَعَوْتُ بِرَاحِلَتِي فَقُلْتُ لَآتِيَنَّ هَذَا الرَّجُلَ فَلَأَسْمَعَنَّ مِنْهُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَوَجَدْتُهُ قَاعِدًا مُحْتَبِيًا فِي بُرْدَةٍ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَرُدُّ عَلَى السَّائِلِ «لَا تَحْقِرَنَّ مِنَ الْمَعْرُوفِ شَيْئًا وَلَوْ أَنْ تَصُبَّ مِنْ فَضْلِ دَلْوِكِ فِي إِنَاءِ الْمُسْتَسْقِي وَإِيَّاكَ وَإِسْبَالَ الْإِزَارِ فَإِنَّهَا مِنَ الْمَخِيلَةِ وَإِنَّ اللهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمَخِيلَةَ وَإِنِ امْرُؤٌ شَتَمَكَ أَوْ قَالَ مَا لَيْسَ فِيكَ فَلَا تَشْتُمْهُ وَلَا تَقُلْ لَهُ مَا لَيْسَ فِيهِ فَيَكُونَ لَكَ أَجْرُهُ وَعَلَيْهِ وَبَالُهُ لَا تَسُبَّنَّ أَحَدًا» فَمَا سَبَبْتُ شَيْئًا بَعِيرًا وَلَا شَاةً وَلَا إِنْسَانًا مُنْذُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَنِ السَّبِّ  

"لَا تَسُبَّنَ أَحَدًا، وَلَا تَحْقِرَنَّ مِنَ الْمَعْرُوفِ شَيئًا وَلَوْ أَنْ تُكَلِّمَ أَخَاكَ وَأَنْتَ مُنْبَسِطٌ إِلَيهِ وَجْهُكَ، إِنَّ ذَلِكَ مِنَ الْمَعْرُوفِ، وَارْفَعْ إِزَارَكَ إِلَى نِصْفِ السَّاقِ، فَإِنْ أَبَيتَ فَإِلَى الْكَعْبَين، وَإِيَّاكَ وَإِسْبَال الإِزَارِ، فَإِنَّهَا مِنَ الْمَخِيلَةِ، وَالله لا يُحِبُّ الْمَخِيلَةَ، فَإِنْ امْرُؤٌ شَتَمَكَ وَعَيَّرَكَ بِمَا يَعْلَمُ فِيكَ، فَلَا تُعَيِّرْهُ بِمَا تَعْلَمُ فِيهِ، فَإِنَّمَا وَبَالُ ذَلِكَ عَلَيهِ".
