1805 – ʿAbd Allah narrated to us; Abu Maʿmar narrated to us. I heard Sufyan saying: Ibn Abi Asad—who was among the most devoted worshippers in Medina—narrated to us. ʿAbd Allah narrated to us; Abu Maʿmar narrated to us, from Sufyan, who said:
A man used to say, “I really dislike putting on a new garment, for if my neighbors see me they might backbite me and thus incur sin.”
١٨٠٥ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ، سَمِعْتُ سُفْيَانَ، يَقُولُ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي أَسَدٍ، وَكَانَ مِنْ أَعْبَدِ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ: كَانَ رَجُلٌ يَقُولُ: «إِنِّي لَأَكْرَهُ أَنْ أَلْبَسَ ثَوْبًا جَدِيدًا يَرَانِي جِيرَانِي فَيَغْتَابُونِي فَيَأْثَمُونَ»
