English Translation

Abu Mu’awiyah told us: al-A’mash told us, from Ibrahim al-Taymi, from al-Harith ibn Suwayd — and al-A’mash also from Umarah, from al-Aswad — both said: Abdullah said, "The believer sees his sins as if he were at the foot of a mountain, fearing that it might fall upon him, while the wicked sinner sees his sins like a fly that lands on his nose," and he waved his hand like this, "and it flies away."
