Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37250 — The words of Ibn Masud
٣٧٢٥٠ - حدثنا عبد اللَّه بن إدريس عن ليث عن القاسم قال: قال عبد اللَّه: لا تعجلوا بحمد الناس وبذمهم، فإن الرجل يعجبك اليوم ويسوءك غدا، ويسوءك اليوم ويعجبك غدا، وإن العباد يغيرون، واللَّه يغفر الذنوب يوم القيامة، واللَّه أرحم (بعبده يوم يأتيه) (١) من أم واحد فرشت له في الأرض (في) (٢) ثم قامت تلتمس فراشه بيدها، فإن كانت لدغة كانت بها، وإن كانت شوكة كانت بها (٣).
It is narrated from al-Qasim that he said: Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Do not be hasty in praising people and in blaming them. For a man may please you today and displease you tomorrow, and if he displeases you today, he may please you tomorrow. For people keep changing. Allah Almighty will forgive sins on the Day of Resurrection. On the day the servant comes to Allah, Allah Almighty will be more merciful to His servant than a mother who spreads a bed for her only child on bare ground, then begins to feel over his bed with her own hand; so if there is anything that stings, it would be on her hand, and if there is a thorn, it would be on her hand.
