أَخْبَرَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا بُنْدَارٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «أَتَدْرُونَ مَا الْغِيبَةُ؟ » قَالُوا اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ «أَنْ تَذْكُرَ أَخَاكَ بِمَا فِيهِ» قَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ كَانَ فِي أَخِي مَا ذَكَرْتُ؟ قَالَ «إِنْ كَانَ فِيهِ مَا ذَكَرْتَ فَقَدِ اغْتَبْتَهُ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِيهِ مَا ذَكَرْتَ فَقَدْ بَهَتَّهُ»

✧ From the Prophet ﷺ who said, "Do you know what backbiting is?" They said, "Allah and His Messenger know best." He said, "It is mentioning your brother with something he dislikes." A man said, "What if what I say about my brother is true?" He said, "If what you say about him is true, you have backbitten him; and if it is not true, you have slandered him."
