عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ: إِنِّي أُحَدِّثُ نَفْسِي بِالشَّيْءِ لَأَنْ أَكُونَ حُمَمَةً أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَتَكَلَّمَ بِهِ. قَالَ: «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي رَدَّ أَمْرَهُ إِلَى الْوَسْوَسَةِ»
Ibn Abbas told how a man came to the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and said, “I have thoughts of such a nature that I would rather be reduced to charcoal than speak about them.” He replied, “Praise be to God who has reduced 1 to no more than evil prompting!” Abu Dawud transmitted it. 1 Or.
