A man asked permission to see the Prophet. He said, "Let Him come in; What an evil man of the tribe he is! (Or, What an evil brother of the tribe he is). But when he entered, the Prophet ﷺ spoke to him gently in a polite manner. I said to him, "O Allah's Apostle! You have said what you have said, then you spoke to him in a very gentle and polite manner? The Prophet ﷺ said, "The worse people, in the sight of Allah are those whom the people leave (undisturbed) to save themselves from their dirty language."  

أَنَّهُ اسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ ائْذَنُوا لَهُ فَبِئْسَ ابْنُ الْعَشِيرَةِ أَوْ بِئْسَ أَخُو الْعَشِيرَةِ فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ أَلاَنَ لَهُ الْكَلاَمَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قُلْتَ مَا قُلْتَ ثُمَّ أَلَنْتَ لَهُ فِي الْقَوْلِ فَقَالَ أَىْ عَائِشَةُ إِنَّ شَرَّ النَّاسِ مَنْزِلَةً عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مَنْ تَرَكَهُ أَوْ وَدَعَهُ النَّاسُ اتِّقَاءَ فُحْشِهِ  

A man asked permission to enter upon Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Admit him. What an evil brother of his people or a son of his people." But when the man entered, the Prophet ﷺ spoke to him in a very polite manner. ˹When that person left˺ I said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, you had said what you had said, yet you spoke to him in a very polite manner?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "O Aishah! The worst people are those whom the people desert or leave in order to save themselves from their abuse."  

اسْتَأْذَنَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ ائْذَنُوا لَهُ بِئْسَ أَخُو الْعَشِيرَةِ أَوِ ابْنُ الْعَشِيرَةِ فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ أَلاَنَ لَهُ الْكَلاَمَ قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قُلْتَ الَّذِي قُلْتَ ثُمَّ أَلَنْتَ لَهُ الْكَلاَمَ؟ قَالَ: «أَىْ عَائِشَةُ، إِنَّ شَرَّ النَّاسِ مَنْ تَرَكَهُ النَّاسُ أَوْ وَدَعَهُ النَّاسُ اتِّقَاءَ فُحْشِهِ۔»  

Grant him permission. (and also added: ) He is a bad son of his tribe or he is a bad person of his tribe. When he came in he used kind words for him. 'A'isha reported that she said: Messenger of Allah, you said about him what you had to say and then you treated him with kindness. He said: A'isha, verily in the eye of Allah, worst amongst the person in rank on the Day of Resurrection is one whom the people abandon or desert out of the fear of indecency.  

أَنَّ رَجُلاً اسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ ائْذَنُوا لَهُ فَلَبِئْسَ ابْنُ الْعَشِيرَةِ أَوْ بِئْسَ رَجُلُ الْعَشِيرَةِ فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ أَلاَنَ لَهُ الْقَوْلَ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قُلْتَ لَهُ الَّذِي قُلْتَ ثُمَّ أَلَنْتَ لَهُ الْقَوْلَ قَالَ يَا عَائِشَةُ إِنَّ شَرَّ النَّاسِ مَنْزِلَةً عِنْدَ اللَّهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَنْ وَدَعَهُ أَوْ تَرَكَهُ النَّاسُ اتِّقَاءَ فُحْشِهِ  

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.  

قَالَتِ اسْتَأْذَنَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ بِئْسَ ابْنُ الْعَشِيرَةِ أَوْ بِئْسَ رَجُلُ الْعَشِيرَةِ ثُمَّ قَالَ ائْذَنُوا لَهُ فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ أَلاَنَ لَهُ الْقَوْلَ فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلَنْتَ لَهُ الْقَوْلَ وَقَدْ قُلْتَ لَهُ مَا قُلْتَ قَالَ إِنَّ شَرَّ النَّاسِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مَنْزِلَةً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَنْ وَدَعَهُ أَوْ تَرَكَهُ النَّاسُ لاِتِّقَاءِ فُحْشِهِ  

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that A'isha, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ said, "A man asked permission to come in to see the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I was with him in the house and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'He is an evil member of his tribe.' Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave him permission." A'isha continued, "It was not long before I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ laughing with him. When the man left, I said, 'Messenger of Allah, you said what you said about him, and then before long you were laughing with him.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, 'Among the most evil of people is the one whom people are cautious with because of his evil.' "  

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهَا قَالَتِ اسْتَأْذَنَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ فِي الْبَيْتِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِئْسَ ابْنُ الْعَشِيرَةِ ثُمَّ أَذِنَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَلَمْ أَنْشَبْ أَنْ سَمِعْتُ ضَحِكَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَعَهُ فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ الرَّجُلُ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قُلْتَ فِيهِ مَا قُلْتَ ثُمَّ لَمْ تَنْشَبْ أَنْ ضَحِكْتَ مَعَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّ مِنْ شَرِّ النَّاسِ مَنِ اتَّقَاهُ النَّاسُ لِشَرِّهِ

'Urwa ibn az-Zubayr heard 'A'isha say, "A man asked permission to visit the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and the Prophet said, 'Give him permission. He is an evil brother of his tribe.' When he entered he spoke kindly to him. I said, 'Messenger of Allah, you said what you said and then you spoke kindly to him.' He replied, 'Yes, 'A'isha. The worst of people is the one people avoid due to his harsh nature.'"
