4957 - وعن انس - رضي الله عنه - قال: قال رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم -"انصر اخاك ظالما او مظلوما"، فقال رجل: يا رسول الله، انصره مظلوما، فكيف انصره ظالما؟ قال:"تمنعه من الظلم، فذلك نصرك إياه". متفق عليه.
Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Help your (Muslim) brother, whether he is an oppressor or oppressed." A man asked: "O Messenger of Allah! I will help the oppressed, but how can I help the oppressor?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "By preventing him from oppression, that is your helping him." Agreed upon.
