Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَالَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَخْبِرْنِي بِكَلِمَاتٍ أَعِيشُ بِهِنَّ وَلَا تُكْثِرْ عَلَيَّ فَأَنْسَى قَالَ اجْتَنِبْ الْغَضَبَ ثُمَّ أَعَادَ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ اجْتَنِبْ الْغَضَبَ.
English Translation
Sufyan narrated to us, from al-Zuhri, from Humayd ibn Abd al-Rahman ibn Awf, from a man among the Companions of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: that a man said to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: Tell me something by which I may live, and do not say too much to me lest I forget. He said: Avoid anger. Then the man repeated the request, and he said again: Avoid anger.
