عَنْ دُخَيْنٍ كَاتِبِ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِعُقْبَةَ إِنَّ لَنَا جِيرَانًا يَشْرَبُونَ الْخَمْرَ وَأَنَا دَاعٍ لَهُمُ الشُّرَطَ فَيَأْخُذُوهُ فَقَالَ لَا تَفْعَلْ وَلَكِنْ عِظْهُمْ وَتَهَدَّدْهُمْ قَالَ فَفَعَلَ فَلَمْ يَنْتَهُوا قَالَ فَجَاءَهُ دُخَيْنٌ فَقَالَ إِنِّي نَهَيْتُهُمْ فَلَمْ يَنْتَهُوا وَأَنَا دَاعٍ لَهُمُ الشُّرَطَ فَقَالَ عُقْبَةُ وَيْحَكَ لَا تَفْعَلْ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ مَنْ سَتَرَ عَوْرَةَ مُؤْمِنٍ فَكَأَنَّمَا اسْتَحْيَا مَوْؤُودَةً مِنْ قَبْرِهَا وَفِي لَفْظٍ كَانَ كَمَنْ أَحْيَا مَوْؤُودَةً مِنْ قَبْرِهَا
It is narrated from Dukhin, the scribe of Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him), who says: I said to Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him): Some of our neighbors drink alcohol; I am going to inform the police so that they may arrest them. Sayyiduna Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Do not do that; advise them and admonish them. He did so, but they did not desist. So Dukhin came again and said: I have tried to stop them, but they do not desist; now I will definitely call the police. Sayyiduna Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Woe to you, do not do that. I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Whoever conceals the fault of a believer, it is as if he brings to life a girl who was buried alive in her grave. In another narration: He is like the one who brings to life a girl who was buried alive in her grave.
