وعنه رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم :
"والذي نفسي بيده لو لم تذنبوا، لذهب الله تعالى بكم، ولجاء بقوم يذنبون فيستغفرون الله تعالى فيغفر لهم" ((رواه مسلم)).
On his authority, may God be pleased with him, he said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said:
“By the One in Whose hand is my soul, if you had not sinned, God Almighty would have taken you away and brought a people who would sin and seek forgiveness from God Almighty and He would forgive them” ((Narrated by Muslim)).
