حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: اسْتَبَّ رَجُلاَنِ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَسَبَّ أَحَدُهُمَا وَالْآخَرُ سَاكِتٌ، وَالنَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَالِسٌ، ثُمَّ رَدَّ الْآخَرُ. فَنَهَضَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقِيلَ: نَهَضْتَ؟ قَالَ: ”نَهَضَتِ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ فَنَهَضْتُ مَعَهُمْ، إِنَّ هَذَا مَا كَانَ سَاكِتًا رَدَّتِ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ عَلَى الَّذِي سَبَّهُ، فَلَمَّا رَدَّ نَهَضَتِ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ.“
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that during the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), two men abused each other. One of them used foul language while the other remained silent, and the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was also present. Then the second person also responded, so the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) stood up and left. It was said to him: "You have stood up?" The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "When the angels departed, I also left with them. As long as he remained silent, the angels were responding to the one who was abusing, but when he replied, the angels departed."
