Qutaybah ibn Saʿīd and Abū Bakr ibn Abī Shaybah narrated to us—both of them from Ibn ʿUyaynah, and the wording is that of Qutaybah—Sufyān narrated to us, from Ibn Muḥayṣin, an elder of Quraysh, who heard Muḥammad ibn Qays ibn Makhramah narrating from Abū Hurayrah, who said: When the verse “Whoever does evil will be requited for it” was revealed, it weighed heavily upon the Muslims. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “Be moderate and seek to do what is right, for in everything that afflicts a Muslim there is an expiation, even the misfortune that befalls him or the thorn that pricks him.” Muslim said: He is ʿUmar ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Muḥayṣin, from the people of Mecca.
