'Urwa ibn az-Zubayr heard 'A'isha say, "A man asked permission
to visit the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and the
Prophet said, 'Give him permission. He is an evil brother of his tribe.'
When he entered he spoke kindly to him. I said, 'Messenger of Allah, you
said what you said and then you spoke kindly to him.' He replied, 'Yes,
'A'isha. The worst of people is the one people avoid due to his harsh nature.'"
'Ammar ibn Yasir said, "I heard the Prophet, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, say, "The person who has two faces in this world will
have two tongues of the Fire on the Day of Rising.' He passed by a stout
man and said, 'This is one of them.'"
حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي السَّوَّارِ الْعَدَوِيِّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عِمْرَانَ بْنَ حُصَيْنٍ قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم: الْحَيَاءُ لاَ يَأْتِي إِلاَّ بِخَيْرٍ، فَقَالَ بُشَيْرُ بْنُ كَعْبٍ: مَكْتُوبٌ فِي الْحِكْمَةِ: إِنَّ مِنَ الْحَيَاءِ وَقَارًا، إِنَّ مِنَ الْحَيَاءِ سَكِينَةً، فَقَالَ لَهُ عِمْرَانُ: أُحَدِّثُكَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَتُحَدِّثُنِي عَنْ صَحِيفَتِكَ.
'Imran ibn Husayn said, "The Prophet, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, said, "Modesty brings nothing but good." Bashir ibn Ka'b
said, "It is written in books of wisdom, 'From modesty comes dignity. From
modesty comes tranquillity.''" 'Imran said, "I relate to you from the Messenger
of Allah and you then relate to me from some book?!"
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: مِنْ شَرِّ النَّاسِ ذُو الْوَجْهَيْنِ، الَّذِي يَأْتِي هَؤُلاَءِ بِوَجْهٍ، وَهَؤُلاَءِ بِوَجْهٍ.
Abu Hurayra reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, said, "The worst person is someone who is two-faced.
He is the person who comes to one group of people with one face and another
group of people with another face."
