Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ وَحَجَّاجٌ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ سَمِعْتُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْأَعْمَشَ وَقَالَ حَجَّاجٌ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ وَثَّابٍ عَنْ شَيْخٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ وَأُرَاهُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ قَالَ حَجَّاجٌ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ الْمُؤْمِنُ الَّذِي يُخَالِطُ النَّاسَ وَيَصْبِرُ عَلَى أَذَاهُمْ أَعْظَمُ أَجْرًا مِنْ الَّذِي لَا يُخَالِطُهُمْ وَلَا يَصْبِرُ عَلَى أَذَاهُمْ قَالَ حَجَّاجٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ الَّذِي لَا يُخَالِطُهُمْ.
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Ja'far and Hajjaj narrated to us, they said: Shu'bah narrated to us — I heard Sulayman al-A'mash, and Hajjaj said: from al-A'mash — narrating from Yahya ibn Wathhab, from an elder among the Companions of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him — he said: and I think it was Ibn Umar. Hajjaj said, Shu'bah said, Sulayman said: and he was Ibn Umar — narrating from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, that he said: The believer who mixes with people and bears patiently their harm has greater reward than one who does not mix with them and does not bear their harm patiently. Hajjaj said: better than the one who does not mix with them.
