Chapter: What Has Been Related About Backbiting
Hadith 1934
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ : قِيلَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، مَا الْغِيبَةُ ؟ قَالَ : " ذِكْرُكَ أَخَاكَ بِمَا يَكْرَهُ " ، قَالَ : أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ كَانَ فِيهِ مَا أَقُولُ ؟ قَالَ : " إِنْ كَانَ فِيهِ مَا تَقُولُ فَقَدِ اغْتَبْتَهُ ، وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِيهِ مَا تَقُولُ فَقَدْ بَهَتَّهُ " ، قَالَ : وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي بَرْزَةَ ، وَابْنِ عُمَرَ ، وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ .
´Abu Hurairah narrated that it was said:` " O Messenger of Allah! What is backbiting?" He said : " Mentioning your brother with that which he does not like." He said " What if what I said about him is so?" He said: "If what you said about him is so, then you have backbitten him, and if it is not as you said, then you have slandered him."
