حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ كِلَاهُمَا ، عَنْ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ وَاللَّفْظُ لِقُتَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ ابْنِ مُحَيْصِنٍ ، شَيْخٍ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ ، سَمِعَ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ قَيْسِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ يُحَدِّثُ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ : مَنْ يَعْمَلْ سُوءًا يُجْزَ بِهِ سورة النساء آية 123 ، بَلَغَتْ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ مَبْلَغًا شَدِيدًا ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " قَارِبُوا وَسَدِّدُوا ، فَفِي كُلِّ مَا يُصَابُ بِهِ الْمُسْلِمُ كَفَّارَةٌ حَتَّى النَّكْبَةِ يُنْكَبُهَا ، أَوِ الشَّوْكَةِ يُشَاكُهَا " ، قَالَ مُسْلِم : هُوَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مُحَيْصِنٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ .
Abu Hurairah (RA) reported that when this verse was revealed:" Whoever does evil will be requited for it", and when this was conveyed to the Muslims they were greatly perturbed. Thereupon Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: Be moderate and stand firm in trouble that falls to the lot of a Muslim (as that) is an expiation for him; even stumbling on the path or the prickin of a thorn (are an expiation for him). Muslim said that 'Umar bin Abdul Rahman Muhaisin was from amongst the people of Makkah.
