(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
هُشَيْمٌ ، قَالَ :
عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَنْ
أَنَسٍ ،
وَيُونُسُ ، عَنْ
الْحَسَنِ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " انْصُرْ أَخَاكَ ظَالِمًا أَوْ مَظْلُومًا " ، قِيلَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، هَذَا أَنْصُرُهُ مَظْلُومًا ، فَكَيْفَ أَنْصُرُهُ إِذَا كَانَ ظَالِمًا ؟ ، قَالَ : " تَحْجُزُهُ ، تَمْنَعُهُ ، فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ نَصْرُهُ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or the oppressed. Someone asked, O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! It is understandable to help the oppressed, but how should we help the oppressor? He replied: Stop him from committing oppression; that is his help.
