Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَجُلٌ لِرَسُولِ
اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَيْفَ لِي أَنْ أَعْلَمَ إِذَا أَحْسَنْتُ وَإِذَا أَسَأْتُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا سَمِعْتَ جِيرَانَكَ يَقُولُونَ قَدْ أَحْسَنْتَ فَقَدْ أَحْسَنْتَ وَإِذَا سَمِعْتَهُمْ يَقُولُونَ قَدْ أَسَأْتَ فَقَدْ أَسَأْتَ

'Abd al-Razzaq narrated to us, Ma'mar narrated to us, from Mansur, from Abu Wa'il, from 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud رضي الله عنه who said: A man said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: 'How can I know when I have done well and when I have done wrong?' the Prophet ﷺ said: 'When you hear your neighbors saying you have done well, then you have done well. And when you hear them saying you have done wrong, then you have done wrong.'
