Hadith 188
۞
188. It has been narrated that Abu Ja'far (a.s) said
Do not revile at the believers and do not try and uncover their faults; for if one discloses the faults of a believer, Allah will disclose his; and if Allah discloses a person's faults, he will be disgraced even in his own home.
188 - وعن أبي جعفر عليه السلام
أنه قال: لا ترموا المؤمنين، ولا تتبعوا عثراتهم، فإنه من يتبع عثرة مؤمن يتبع الله عز وجل عثرته، ومن يتبع الله عز وجل عثرته فضحه في بيته.
