Hadith 13:2213

Abu Bakr narrated to us, he said: Abu Mu'awiyah narrated to us, from al-A'mash, from Shaqiq, from Abu Mas'ud, who said: The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: A man from those who were before you was brought to account, and no good was found for him, except that he was a wealthy man who used to mix with the people, and he would say to his servants: "Overlook the one in difficulty." So Allah said to His angels: "We are more entitled to that than him, so overlook him."

حدثنا أبو بكر قال حدثنا أبو معاوية عن الأعمش عن شقيق عن أبي مسعود قال قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم حوسب الرجل ممن كان قبلكم فلم يوجد له من الخير شيء إلا أنه كان رجلا موسرا يخالط الناس فيقول لغلمانه تجاوزوا عن المعسر فقال الله لملائكته فنحن أحق بذلك منه فتجاوزوا عنه
