Sunan Abi Dawud 4345 (Book 39, Hadith 55) #24636
The Importance of Disapproving Sin

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the importance of disapproving of sin and how it is as important as not being present when a sin is committed.

Narrated Al-Urs bin 'Amirat al-Kindi: The Prophet said: When sin is done in the earth, he who sees it and disapproves of it will be taken like one who was not present, but he who is not present and approves of it will be like him who sees.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُغِيرَةُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ الْمَوْصِلِيُّ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ عَدِيٍّ، عَنِ الْعُرْسِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ الْكِنْدِيِّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏"‏ إِذَا عُمِلَتِ الْخَطِيئَةُ فِي الأَرْضِ كَانَ مَنْ شَهِدَهَا فَكَرِهَهَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً ‏"‏ أَنْكَرَهَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ‏"‏ كَمَنْ غَابَ عَنْهَا وَمَنْ غَابَ عَنْهَا فَرَضِيَهَا كَانَ كَمَنْ شَهِدَهَا
