Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " لاَ تَسُبُّوا أَصْحَابِي فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَوْ أَنْفَقَ أَحَدُكُمْ مِثْلَ أُحُدٍ ذَهَبًا مَا بَلَغَ مُدَّ أَحَدِهِمْ وَلاَ نَصِيفَهُ " .
Translation
Musaddad narrated to us; Abu Muawiyah narrated to us, from al-A‘mash, from Abu Salih, from Abu Sa‘id, who said: The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Do not insult my Companions. By the One in whose hand is my soul, if one of you were to spend gold equal to Mount Uhud, it would not reach the measure of one of them, nor even half of it.’
