Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ عَنِ الْمُعَلَّى الْقُرْدُوسِيِّ عَنْ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَلَا لَا يَمْنَعَنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ رَهْبَةُ النَّاسِ أَنْ يَقُولَ بِحَقٍّ إِذَا رَآهُ أَوْ شَهِدَهُ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يُقَرِّبُ مِنْ أَجَلٍ وَلَا يُبَاعِدُ مِنْ رِزْقٍ أَنْ يَقُولَ بِحَقٍّ أَوْ يُذَكِّرَ بِعَظِيمٍ.
English Translation
Muhammad ibn al-Hasan told us: Ja'far told us, from al-Mu'alla al-Qurdusi, from al-Hasan, from Abu Sa'id al-Khudri, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "Beware, let not the fear of people prevent any of you from speaking the truth when he sees it or witnesses it, for indeed speaking the truth or reminding of a great matter neither brings death nearer nor keeps provision away."
