حَدِيثُ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنها، أَن رَسُولَ الله ﷺ قَالَ: «إِيَّاكُمْ وَالظَّنَّ، فَإِنَّ الظَّنَّ أَكْذَبُ الْحَدِيثِ. وَلَا تَحَسَّسُوا، وَلَا تَجَسَّسُوا، وَلَا تَنَاجَشُوا، وَلَا تَحَاسَدُوا، وَلَا تَبَاغُضُوا، وَلَا تَدَابَرُوا. وَكُونوا عِبَادَ الله إِخْوَانًا»..
Abu Hurairah Narrated from:
Allâh’s Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “Beware of suspicion, for suspicion is the worst of false tales, and do not look for others’ faults, and do not indulge in spying on one another, and do not practise Najsh [1], and do not be jealous of one another, and do not hate one another, and do not desert (stop talking to) one another. And O Allâh’s worshippers! Be brothers!” ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 92, Vol. 8 )
[1] Najsh means to offer a high price for something in order to allure another customer who is interested in that thing.
