Musnad Ahmad 17999 — Hadith of Wabisah ibn Ma'bad al-Asadi who settled
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ السُّلَمِيِّ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ وَابِصَةَ بْنَ مَعْبَدٍ صَاحِبَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : جِئْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنِ الْبِرِّ وَالْإِثْمِ ، فَقَالَ : " جِئْتَ تَسْأَلُ عَنِ الْبِرِّ وَالْإِثْمِ " . فَقُلْتُ : وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ مَا جِئْتُكَ أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْ غَيْرِهِ . فَقَالَ : " الْبِرُّ : مَا انْشَرَحَ لَهُ صَدْرُكَ ، وَالْإِثْمُ : مَا حَاكَ فِي صَدْرِكَ وَإِنْ أَفْتَاكَ عَنْهُ النَّاسُ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Wabisa bin Ma’bad (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to ask about virtue and sin. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Have you come to ask me about virtue and sin?" I replied, "By the One Who has sent you with the truth, I have come to ask you about nothing else." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Virtue is that which brings contentment to your heart, and sin is that which causes uneasiness in your heart, even if people keep giving you legal verdicts."
