Musnad of al-Abbas bin Abd al-Muttalib (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 6703 — he said: We were sitting with the Messenger
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ الرُّومِيُّ قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي جَابِرُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ بْنِ رِفَاعَةَ ، عَنْ هَارُونَ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَوْزَاءِ ، عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ قَالَ : كُنَّا جُلُوسًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - تَحْتَ شَجَرَةٍ ، فَهَاجَتِ الرِّيحُ ، فَوَقَعَ مَا كَانَ فِيهَا مِنْ وَرَقٍ نَخِرٍ ، وَبَقِيَ فِيهَا مَا كَانَ مِنْ وَرَقٍ أَخْضَرَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : مَا مَثَلُ هَذِهِ الشَّجَرَةِ ؟ قَالَ الْقَوْمُ : اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ ، قَالَ : مَثَلُهَا مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ ، إِذَا اقْشَعَرَّ مِنْ خَشْيَةِ اللهِ ، وَقَعَتْ عَنْهُ ذُنُوبُهُ وَبَقِيَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَاتُهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) under a tree when suddenly a strong wind blew, and all the leaves of the tree that had decayed fell off, while those that were green remained in their place. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What is the likeness of this tree?" The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said: "Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) know best." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Its likeness is that of the believer: when he trembles out of fear of Allah Almighty, his sins fall away from him (in the same way), and his good deeds remain for him."
