1704 – ʿAbd Allah narrated to us; Muṣʿab ibn ʿAbd Allah al-Zubayrī narrated to us; Mālik narrated to me, from Ismāʿīl ibn Abī Ḥakīm, who told him that he heard ʿUmar ibn ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz say:
“It used to be said: Allah does not punish the common people on account of the sin of the select few; however, when wrongdoing is perpetrated openly, they all become liable for punishment.”
١٧٠٤ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الزُّبَيْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي حَكِيمٍ، أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ، سَمِعَ عُمَرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، يَقُولُ: " كَانَ يُقَالُ: إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُعَذِّبُ الْعَامَّةَ بِذَنْبِ الْخَاصَّةِ وَلَكِنْ إِذَا عُمِلَ الْمُنْكَرُ جِهَارًا اسْتَحَقُّوا الْعُقُوبَةَ كُلُّهُمْ "
