حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ سَوَاءٍ، حَدَّثَنِي عَمِّي، مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَوَاءٍ عَنْ حُسَيْنٍ الْمُعَلِّمِ، عَنْ مَطَرٍ الْوَرَّاقِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " مَنْ أَعَانَ عَلَى خُصُومَةٍ بِظُلْمٍ - أَوْ يُعِينُ عَلَى ظُلْمٍ - لَمْ يَزَلْ فِي سَخَطِ اللَّهِ حَتَّى يَنْزِعَ " .

Muhammad bin Thalabah bin Sawa narrated to us: My paternal uncle, Muhammad bin Sawa, narrated to me, from Husain Al-Muallim, from Matar Al-Warraq, from Nafi, from Ibn Umar, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever supports a dispute unjustly—or supports wrongdoing—will remain under Allah's anger until he withdraws.
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The Arabic gives two formulations: supporting a dispute unjustly, or supporting injustice. “Until he withdraws” renders hatta yanzi; the object is left implicit.
