Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 27198 — Reports on the prohibition
٢٧١٩٨ - حدثنا عبيد اللَّه بن موسى قال: أخبرنا حسن عن عطاء (بن) (١) السائب عن الشعبي عن ابن مسعود قال: إذا قلت ما هو فيه وهو (لا) (٢) يسمع فقد اغتبته، وإذا قلت ما ليس فيه فقد بهته (٣).
Al-Sha'bi said that Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: When you say about your brother what is present in him and he does not hear it, you have backbitten him, and when you say what is not present in him, you have slandered him.
