حَدَّثَنَا مَحْبُوبُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ خَالِدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكَرَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ
أَنَّ رَجُلًا مَدَحَ صَاحِبًا لَهُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: وَيْلَكَ، قَطَعْتَ عُنُقَهُ، إِنْ كُنْتَ مَادِحًا لَا مَحَالَةَ فَقُلْ: أَحْسَبُهُ كَذَا وَكَذَا، وَاللهُ حَسِيبُهُ، وَلَا أُزَكِّي عَلَى اللهِ [تَعَالَى] أَحَدًا

✧ A man praised a companion of his in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ, and he said: 'Woe to you! You have cut his neck. If you must praise, then say: "I reckon him to be such and such," and Allah is his reckoner, and I do not commend anyone over Allah [the Exalted].'
