English Translation
Imam Abu al-Tayyib Sahl ibn Muhammad ibn Sulayman (may Allah have mercy on him) narrated to us by dictation... from Abu Hurayrah, from the Prophet (peace be upon him) who said: 'Be gentle with Allah, be gentle! Were it not for devout youths, grazing animals, bowing elders, and nursing infants, punishment would be poured upon you.' Ibrahim ibn Khuthaym is not strong, but it has a corroborating narration with another chain that is also not strong.
