وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ الْقَاضِي، نا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ هُوَ الْأَصَمُّ، نا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ الْحَارِثِيُّ، نا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ زَائِدَةَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ
قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: " مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمَيْنِ إِلَّا وَبَيْنَهُمَا سِتْرٌ مِنَ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، فَإِذَا قَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِصَاحِبِهِ كَلِمَةَ هَجْرٍ خَرَقَ سِتْرَ اللهِ " قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ: " وَنا مَرَّةً أُخْرَى مَوْقُوفًا "

He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "There are no two Muslims except that there is a screen between them from Allah, Mighty and Majestic. So when one of them says to his companion a word of abandonment, he tears the screen of Allah." Abū Jaʿfar said: "And he narrated it to us another time as mawqūf (a statement of the Companion)."
