English Translation
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'None of you should belittle himself.' They said: 'O Messenger of Allah, how can one of us belittle himself?' He said: 'He sees a matter concerning Allah about which he should speak, but he does not speak. Allah will say to him on the Day of Resurrection: What prevented you from speaking about such-and-such? He will say: Fear of the people. He will say: It is I whom you should have feared.'
