Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 564

قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ : وَرَكِبَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ إِلَى عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ إِلَى مِصْرَ قَالَ : إِنِّي سَائِلُكَ عَنْ أَمْرٍ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِمَّنْ حَضَرَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - إِلَّا أَنَا وَأَنْتَ ، كَيْفَ سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ فِي سَتْرِ الْمُسْلِمِ ؟ فَقَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : " مَنْ سَتَرَ مُؤْمِنًا فِي الدُّنْيَا عَلَى عَوْرَةٍ سَتَرَهُ اللَّهُ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ " ، فَرَجَعَ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ فَمَا حَلَّ رَحْلَهُ حَتَّى تَحَدَّثَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ هَكَذَا مُنْقَطِعَ الْإِسْنَادِ .
Ibn Jurayj narrates: Sayyiduna Abu Ayyub al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) rode (that is, travelled from Madinah) to Egypt to meet Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him), and said: "I wish to ask you about a matter; of those who were present with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at that time, none remain except you and me. (I wish to ask:) What did you hear the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say about concealing (the faults of) a Muslim?" Sayyiduna Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'Whoever conceals a hidden matter of a believer in this world, Allah Almighty will conceal (his faults) on the Day of Resurrection.'" Then Sayyiduna Abu Ayyub al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) set off from there back to Madinah; he had not even unfastened his saddle until Sayyiduna Uqbah narrated this hadith to him.
Imam Ahmad recorded it in this way, with a munqati' (broken) chain.
