حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ عَنْ عَطَائٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ سُرِقَتْ مِلْحَفَةٌ لَهَا فَجَعَلَتْ تَدْعُو عَلَی مَنْ سَرَقَهَا فَجَعَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ لَا تُسَبِّخِي عَنْهُ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد لَا تُسَبِّخِي أَيْ لَا تُخَفِّفِي عَنْهُ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 1497
Narrated Aishah, Ummul Muminin: Ata said: The quilt of Aishah was stolen. She began to curse the person who had stolen it. The Prophet ﷺ began to tell her: Do not lighten him. Abu Dawud said: The meaning of the Arabic words la tasbikhi 'anhu means "do not lessen him or lighten him".
