وعن جابر رضي الله عنه قال : قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم : « خير أمتي الذين إذا أساءوا استغفروا وإذا أحسنوا استبشروا وإذا سافروا قصروا وأفطروا» . أخرجه الطبراني في الأوسط بإسناد ضعيف ، وهو في مراسيل سعيد بن المسيب عند البيهقي مختصرا.
Narrated Jabir (RA): Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "The best of my followers are those who, having done evil, ask for forgiveness (from Allah); and when on a journey, shorten (the prayer) and break the fast." [at-Tabarani reported it in al-'Awsat through a weak chain of narrators]. al-Baihaqi reported it in brief as a Mursal (missing link after the Tabi'i) from Sa'id bin al-Musaiyab.

Takhrij:
«أخرجه الطبراني في الأوسط:7 /286، حديث:6554.* ابن لهيعة وأبوالزبير مدلسان وعنعنا.»©Explanation: © Hadith Narrator:
«حضرت سعید بن مسیب رحمہ اللہ » was the leader of the senior Tabi‘in.
In terms of knowledge, he possessed the most extensive knowledge among them all.
He was a comprehensive personality, combining jurisprudence (fiqh), hadith, asceticism (zuhd), worship (‘ibadah), and piety and scrupulousness (taqwa wa wara‘).
He was born two years after the caliphate of ‘Umar radi Allahu anhu had commenced, and he passed away after 90 AH, when he was approximately 80 years old.
In “Musayyib,” the “ya” is emphasized (mushaddad) and has a fatha, but it has also been recited with a kasrah.
