أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ زَيْدُ بْنُ أَبِي هَاشِمٍ الْعَلَوِيُّ بِالْكُوفَةِ، أَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ دُحَيْمٍ، نا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، أَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ، عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ
قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ: " إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيُذْنِبُ فَيُنْكَتُ فِي قَلْبِهِ نُكْتَةٌ سَوْدَاءُ، ثُمَّ يُذْنِبُ الذَّنْبَ فَيُنْكَتُ نُكْتَةٌ أُخْرَى، حَتَّى يَصِيرَ لَوْنُ قَلْبِهِ لَوْنَ الشَّاةِ الرَّبْدَاءِ "، يَعْنِي السَّوْدَاءَ. كَذَا وَجَدْتُهُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ

ʿAbdullāh b. Masʿūd said: "A man commits a sin, and a black spot is dotted upon his heart. Then he commits another sin, and another spot is dotted, until the color of his heart becomes the color of the dusky (rabdāʾ) sheep," meaning the black one. "This is how I found it from ʿAbdullāh."
