3744. It was narrated from 'Abdur-Rahmān bin Abu Bakrah that his father said: "A man praised another man in the presence of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Woe to you, you have cut the neck of your companion,' several times. Then he said: 'If anyone of you praises his brother, let him say: "I think he is like this, but I do not sanctify anyone before Allāh."'" (Sahih)

Arabic text

3744 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شَبَابَةُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: مَدَحَ رَجُلٌ رَجُلًا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «وَيْحَكَ قَطَعْتَ عُنُقَ صَاحِبِكَ مِرَارًا» . ثُمَّ قَالَ: " إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدُكُمْ مَادِحًا أَخَاهُ فَلْيَقُلْ: «أَحْسِبُهُ وَلَا أُزَكِّي عَلَى اللَّهِ أَحَدًا»

Commentary

A human being can judge based on what is apparent to him while Allāh Alone is aware of the reality of hearts and their conditions.
