Arabic (Original)
أَخْبَرَنَا الْقَطَّانُ بِالرَّقَّةِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا صَدَقَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ دِهْقَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي زَكَرِيَّا قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أُمَّ الدَّرْدَاءِ تَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «كُلُّ ذَنْبٍ عَسَى اللَّهُ أَنْ يَغْفِرَهُ إِلَّا مَنْ مَاتَ مُشْرِكًا أَوْ مَنْ قَتَلَ مُؤْمِنًا مُتَعَمِّدًا»
English Translation
Abu Khalifah informed us, saying: Abu al-Walid narrated to us, saying: Shu'bah narrated to us from Sulayman from Abi Wa'il from Abd Allah from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who said: 'Truth leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Paradise, and a person continues to speak the truth until he is recorded with Allah as a truthful person.'
