The Reward for Concealing a Muslim Brother’s Fault
عن أبى هريرة رضى الله عنه عن النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: لا يستر عبد عبدا فى الدنيا إلا ستره الله يوم القيامة
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Whoever conceals the faults of a person in this world, Allah will conceal his faults on the Day of Resurrection.”
عن ابن عمر رضي الله عنهما أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: المسلم أخو المسلم، لا يظلمه، ولا يسلمه، من كان فى حاجة أخيه، كان الله فى حاجته، ومن فرج عن مسلم كربة، فرج الله عنه بها كربة من كرب يوم القيامة، ومن ستر مسلما ستره الله يوم القيامة
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “A Muslim is the brother of another Muslim; he neither oppresses him nor forsakes him to the enemy. Whoever fulfills the needs of his (Muslim) brother, Allah will fulfill his needs. Whoever relieves a Muslim of some distress, Allah will relieve him of some of the distress of the Day of Resurrection. And whoever conceals the faults of a Muslim, Allah will conceal his faults on the Day of Resurrection.”
عن أبى الدرداء رضى الله عنه عن النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: من رد عن عرض أخيه، رد الله عن وجهه النار يوم القيامة
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Whoever defends the honor of his Muslim brother, Allah will keep the fire of Hell away from his face on the Day of Resurrection.”
Imam Al-Albani (may Allah have mercy on him) declared it “Sahih.”
