قَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ دِينَارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُصْعَبُ بْنُ سَلَّامٍ، عَنْ حَمْزَةَ الزَّيَّاتِ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ ؓ قَالَ:
خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى أَسْمَعَ الْعَوَاتِقَ فِي بُيُوتِهَا، أَوْ قَالَ فِي خُدُورِهَا، فَقَالَ: يَا مَعْشَرَ مَنْ آمَنَ بِلِسَانِهِ، وَلَمْ يَدْخُلِ الْإِيمَانُ قَلْبَهُ، لَا تَغْتَابُوا الْمُسْلِمِينَ، وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا عَوْرَاتِهِمْ، فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ يَتَّبِعْ عَوْرَةَ أَخِيهِ يَتَّبِعِ اللهُ عَوْرَتَهُ، وَمَنْ تَتَبَّعَ اللهُ عَوْرَتَهُ يَفْضَحْهُ فِي جَوْفِ بَيْتِهِ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ addressed us until he made the young women in their houses hear, or he said in their chambers. He said: 'O assembly of those who have believed with their tongues but faith has not entered their hearts, do not backbite the Muslims, and do not pursue their private faults. For whoever pursues the private fault of his brother, Allah will pursue his private fault, and whoever Allah pursues his private fault, He will expose him even in the innermost part of his house.'
