Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ عَنْ
أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ الْعَزْلِ فَقَالَ إِنْ تَفْعَلُوا ذَلِكَ لَا عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ لَا تَفْعَلُوهُ فَإِنَّهُ لَيْسَ نَسَمَةٌ قَضَى اللَّهُ أَنْ تَكُونَ إِلَّا هِيَ كَائِنَةٌ

English Translation
Abu Kamil narrated to us, Ibrahim ibn Sa'd narrated to us, Ibn Shihab narrated to us, from 'Ubaydullah ibn Abdullah ibn 'Utbah, from Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (رضي الله عنه) who said: the Prophet ﷺ was asked: "Which people bear the most severe trials?" He said: "the Prophet ﷺs, then the righteous, then those nearest to them, then those nearest to them. A man is tried according to his religion. If his religion is firm, his trial increases, and if there is weakness in his religion, his trial is lightened. A person continues to be tried until he walks upon the earth without any sin upon him."
