Arabic Text

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو شِهَابٍ، عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ بْنِ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ عَدِيٍّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَحْوَهُ قَالَ ‏ "‏ مَنْ شَهِدَهَا فَكَرِهَهَا كَانَ كَمَنْ غَابَ عَنْهَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏

English Translation

A similar tradition has also been transmitted by ‘Adl from the prophet (ﷺ) though a different chain of narrators. This version has :

He who sees it and disapproves of it will be like him who was not present.
