English translation

2546. It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbās that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever conceals the (hidden) fault of his Muslim brother, Allāh will conceal his faults on the Day of Resurrection. Whoever exposes the fault of his Muslim brother, Allāh will expose his faults, until (so that) He shames him, due to it, in his (own) house." (Da'if)

Arabic text

2546 - حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ كَاسِبٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الْجُمَحِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْحَكَمُ بْنُ أَبَانَ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ سَتَرَ عَوْرَةَ أَخِيهِ الْمُسْلِمِ، سَتَرَ اللَّهُ عَوْرَتَهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، وَمَنْ كَشَفَ عَوْرَةَ أَخِيهِ الْمُسْلِمِ، كَشَفَ اللَّهُ عَوْرَتَهُ، حَتَّى يَفْضَحَهُ بِهَا فِي بَيْتِهِ»

وغيره، وح: ٢٥٤٤، ٢٢٥، يعني عنه. Covering the nakedness of someone may mean to give him clothes to cover his body. It may also mean to conceal his faults to save him from humiliation.
