مُسْنَدُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ
Musnad of al-Husayn bin Ali bin Abi Talib
Musnad Abi Ya'la 6785 — as far as I know, he narrated it
حَدَّثَنَا مَنْصُورُ بْنُ أَبِي مُزَاحِمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ ، عَنْ يُوسُفَ الصَّبَّاغِ ، عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ، وَلَا أَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا عَنِ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : مَنْ شَهِدَ أَمْرًا فَكَرِهَهُ ، كَانَ كَمَنْ غَابَ عَنْهُ ، وَمَنْ غَابَ عَنْ أَمْرٍ فَرَضِيَ بِهِ ، كَانَ كَمَنْ شَهِدَهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) (and the narrator said: as far as I know, he narrated it from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) himself) that he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever is present at a matter (an evil or a sin) and dislikes it is like one who was absent from it (free of blame), and whoever is absent from a matter but is pleased with it (in his heart) is like one who was present at it (sharing in the sin)."
