(مَدْحُ الْفَاسِقِ يُرْجِفُ الْعَرْشَ)
(Praising a sinner causes the Throne to tremble)
Hadith 4859
عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِذَا مُدِحَ الْفَاسِقُ غَضِبَ الرَّبُّ تَعَالَى وَاهْتَزَّ لَهُ الْعَرْشُ» رَوَاهُ الْبَيْهَقِيُّ فِي «شعب الْإِيمَان»
Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When a sinner is praised, the Lord Almighty becomes displeased, and because of this (praise), His Throne trembles." Its chain of narration is weak. It was narrated by Al-Bayhaqi in Shu'ab al-Iman.
