وَعَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : “لَا يُبَلِّغْنِي أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِي عَنْ أَحَدٍ شيءا، فَإِنِّي أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَخْرُجَ إلىكم وَأَنَا سَلِيمُ الصَّدْرِ". ((رَوَاهُ أبوداود وَالتِّرْمِذِيّ))
Ibn Mas'ud (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "None of my Companions should convey to me anything regarding another because I desire to meet everyone of you with a clean heart." [Abu Dawud and At- Tirmidhi].
