English Translation
Ibn Abbas narrated that the Messenger of Allah ♂ said one day: "Is there anyone among you from Hudhayl?" No one answered. Then he said: "Is there anyone among you from Hudhayl?" A man said: "I am." A man from among them had died. The Messenger of Allah ♂ said: "What prevented you from speaking when I first spoke?" He said: "I thought, O Messenger of Allah, that something was revealed about my people, and I disliked being the one to bring it to them." He said: "No, rather your companion is being held back because of his debt."
