1. My father, may Allah grant him mercy, said: We were told by Sa’d bin Abdullah, from Ahmad bin Muhammed bin Khalid, from his father, from Muhammed bin Sinan, from Hussain bin Mukhtar, from Zaid al-Shahham, from Abu Abdillah, peace be upon him, with regards to his saying
«The blemish of a believer upon another believer is forbidden» that he said: It is not that he is uncovered and that something (of his private organs) is seen. It is only that it is narrated something bad about him.
أبي - رحمه الله - قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن أحمد بن محمد بن خالد، عن أبيه، عن محمد بن سنان، عن الحسين بن مختار، عن زيد الشحام، عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام في قوله: " عورة المؤمن على المؤمن حرام " قال
ليس هو أن ينكشف ويرى منه شيئا إنما هو أن يروي عليه.
