Translation

Narrated Anas ibn Malik (RA): The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or oppressed." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, we help him when he is oppressed, but how do we help him when he is an oppressor?" He said, "By holding back his hand [from oppressing]."
