Majma al-Zawaid 10481 — Concealing the faults of Muslims
وَعَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ قَالَ : خَرَجَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ عَلَى أَهْلِ الدَّارِ ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ : مَنْ جَاءَ مِنْكُمْ مُسْتَفْتِيًا فَلْيَجْلِسْ عَلَى ثَفِيَّةٍ ، وَمَنْ جَاءَ مِنْكُمْ مُخَاصِمًا فَلْيُكْرِمْ خَصْمَهُ حَتَّى نَقْضِيَ بَيْنَهُمَا ، وَمَنْ جَاءَ مِنْكُمْ يُطْلِعُنَا عَلَى عَوْرَةٍ سَتَرَهَا اللَّهُ ، فَلْيَسْتَتِرْ بِسِتْرِ اللَّهِ ، وَلْيَسْتُرْهَا إِلَى مَنْ يَمْلِكُ مَغْفِرَتَهَا ، فَإِنِّي لَا أَمْلِكُ مَغْفِرَتَهَا ، أُقِيمُ عَلَيْهِ حَدًّا وَبِأَبْعَارِهَا .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْهُذَلِيُّ وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ .

Masruq narrates: Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) came out of the house to the people who were outside and said to them: "Whoever of you has come to ask for a ruling, let him sit in his place. Whoever of you has come with a dispute, let him bring the opposing party as well, so that we may judge between them. And whoever of you has come to inform us about someone's hidden affair which Allah Almighty has concealed, let him keep Allah's covering in place and entrust that concealed matter to the One who has the power to forgive it, for I do not have the power to forgive it; I would only carry out the prescribed punishment (hadd) on that person and punish him."
Al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains Abu Bakr al-Hudhali, who is da'if (weak).
