It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever covers a fault of his brother, it is as if he gave life to a girl who had been buried alive."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Muhammad bin al-Munkadir except Abu Ma'shar; Abu al-Rabi' is alone in narrating it, and this hadith is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) only with this chain."
