عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " إِذَا اقْشَعَرَّ جِلْدُ الْعَبْدِ مِنْ خَشْيَةِ اللَّهِ ; تَحَاتَّتْ عَنْهُ خَطَايَاهُ كَمَا تَحَاتُّ عَنِ الشَّجَرَةِ الْبَالِيَةِ وَرَقُهَا " . رَوَاهُ الْبَزَّارُ ، وَفِيهِ أُمُّ كُلْثُومٍ بِنْتُ الْعَبَّاسِ وَلَمْ أَعْرِفْهَا ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ ثِقَاتٌ .
Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When the skin of a servant shivers out of fear of Allah Almighty, his sins fall away from him just as leaves fall from a withered tree."
Al-Bazzar recorded it; its chain contains a woman, Umm Kulthum bint al-Abbas, whom I do not know. The remaining narrators of this report are thiqat (trustworthy).

وَعَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ أَيْضًا قَالَ : كُنَّا جُلُوسًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - تَحْتَ الشَّجَرَةِ ، فَهَاجَتِ الرِّيحُ ، فَوَقَعَ مَا كَانَ فِيهَا مِنْ وَرَقٍ نَخِرٍ ، وَبَقِيَ مَا كَانَ فِيهَا مِنْ وَرَقٍ أَخْضَرَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " مَا مَثَلُ هَذِهِ الشَّجَرَةِ ؟ " . قَالُوا : اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ . قَالَ : " مَثَلُهَا مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ ، إِذَا اقْشَعَرَّ مِنْ خَشْيَةِ اللَّهِ وَقَعَتْ عَنْهُ ذُنُوبُهُ ، وَبَقِيَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَاتُهُ " . رَوَاهُ أَبُو يَعْلَى مِنْ رِوَايَةِ هَارُونَ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَوْزَاءِ ، عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ ، وَلَمْ أَعْرِفْ هَارُونَ ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ وُثِّقُوا عَلَى ضَعْفٍ فِي مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الرُّومِيِّ ، وَوَثَّقَهُ ابْنُ حِبَّانَ .
Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: We were sitting with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) beneath a tree. The wind blew, the dry leaves of that tree fell and the green leaves remained on it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What is the likeness of this tree?" The people said: "Allah and His Messenger know best." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Its likeness is that of the believer: when he (the believer) shivers out of fear of Allah Almighty, his sins fall away from him and his good deeds remain for him."
Abu Ya'la recorded it as a report of Harun bin Abi al-Jawza' from Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him), and I do not know Harun. The remaining narrators of this report have been declared trustworthy, although there is weakness in a narrator named Muhammad bin Umar bin al-Rumi; Ibn Hibban declared him thiqah (trustworthy).
