64 — Hamzah ibn al-Abbās narrated to me: Abdān ibn Uthmān informed us: Abd Allah informed us: Ibn Lahīʿah informed us: Khālid ibn Abī Imrān narrated to me that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) held his tongue for a long while, then said: “May Allah have mercy on a servant who speaks good and thereby profits, or refrains from speaking evil and thereby remains safe.”
٦٤ - حَدَّثَنِي حَمْزَةُ بْنُ الْعَبَّاسِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدَانُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، حَدَّثَنِي خَالِدُ بْنُ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ: أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَمْسَكَ لِسَانَهُ طَوِيلًا ثُمَّ قَالَ: «رَحِمَ اللَّهُ عَبْدًا قَالَ خَيْرًا فَغَنِمَ، أَوْ سَكَتَ عَنْ سُوءٍ فَسَلِمَ»
