عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُمْ ذَكَرُوا رَجُلًا عِنْدَهُ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَفْضَلُ مِنْهُ فِي كَذَا وَكَذَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَيْحَكَ قَطَعْتَ عُنُقَ صَاحِبِكَ مِرَارًا يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدُكُمْ مَادِحًا أَخَاهُ لَا مَحَالَةَ فَلْيَقُلْ أَحْسِبُ فُلَانًا إِنْ كَانَ يَرَى أَنَّهُ كَذَاكَ وَلَا أُزَكِّي عَلَى اللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ أَحَدًا وَحَسِيبُهُ اللَّهُ أَحْسَبُهُ كَذَا وَكَذَا
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that in the presence of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), people mentioned a man, and one person said about him: "O Messenger of Allah! There is no one who is superior to so-and-so in such-and-such deeds after the Messenger of Allah." Upon this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You will be ruined, you have cut your companion's neck." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) repeated this statement several times and then said: "If someone must praise another, then he should say: 'I think that this man is such-and-such, but I cannot declare anyone pure before Allah; in reality, his reckoning is with Allah. However, I think of him as such-and-such.'"
