May Allaah darken his face who hears my hadith and does not conveys it to others

In the Name of Allaah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salaamu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullaahi wa-barakaatuh.

Brother in Islaam,

There is no Hadith with reference to a person’s face being darkened for not narrating a Ahaadith. There were many Sahaabah (Radhiyallaahu ‘anhum) who exercised precaution in narrating Ahaadith.

Rasulullaah (Sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said,

Translation: “Whoever deliberately ascribes something to me falsely, then let him occupy his seat in Hell-fire.” (Muslim 3)

And Allaah Ta’aala Knows Best.
