Ways of The Prophet (S.A.W)

Defaming the Muslims

Hadrat Abdullah bin Umar (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated that ALLAH’s Messenger (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) mounted the pulpit and called in a loud voice. “O you people who have accepted Islam with your tongues but whose hearts have not been reached, by faith, do not annoy the Muslims, or revile them, or seek out their faults, for he who seeks out the faults of his brother Muslim will have his faults sought out by ALLAH, and he whose faults are sought out by ALLAH will be exposed by Him, even though he should be in the interior of his house”. [Timizi]

Hadrat lbn Abbas (Radi Allahu Ta’ala’anhu) has reported that the Messenger of ALLAH (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, “The worst bargain amongst the bad bargains is that a Muslim is disgraced and his dignity is destroyed.” [lbn Abid Dunya, Baihaqi]
