Hadith 4890
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ , حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ ، قَالَ : أُتِيَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ ، فَقِيلَ : هَذَا فُلَانٌ تَقْطُرُ لِحْيَتُهُ خَمْرًا ، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ : " إِنَّا قَدْ نُهِينَا عَنِ التَّجَسُّسِ وَلَكِنْ إِنْ يَظْهَرْ لَنَا شَيْءٌ نَأْخُذْ بِهِ " .
Narrated Abdullah ibn Masud: Zayd ibn Wahb said: A man was brought to Ibn Masud. He was told: This is so and so, and wine was dropping from his beard. Abdullah thereupon said: We have been prohibited to seek out (faults). If anything becomes manifest to us, we shall seize it.
