Majma al-Zawaid 12141 — The spread of sins
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِذَا خَفِيَتِ الْخَطِيئَةُ لَمْ تَضُرَّ إِلَّا صَاحِبَهَا ، وَإِذَا ظَهَرَتْ فَلَمْ تُغَيَّرْ ضَرَّتِ الْعَامَّةَ " . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ ، وَفِيهِ مَرْوَانُ بْنُ سَالِمٍ الْغِفَارِيُّ وَهُوَ مَتْرُوكٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When a sin is hidden, it harms only the one who commits it, and when it becomes open and is not removed, it harms the people at large."
