4221. It was narrated from Abu Bakr bin Abu Zuhair Ath-Thaqafi, that his father said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ addressed us in Nabāwah" or Banāwah - he (one of the narrators) said: "Nabāwah is near Tā'if" - "And said: 'Soon you will be able to tell the people of Paradise from the people of Hell.' They said: 'How, O Messenger of Allāh?' He said: 'By praise and condemnation. You are Allāh's witnesses over one another.'" (Hasan)
4221 - أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا نَافِعُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْجُمَحِيُّ، عَنْ أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ صَفْوَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي زُهَيْرٍ الثَّقَفِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالنَّبَاوَةِ، أَوِ الْبَنَاوَةِ، قَالَ: وَالنَّبَاوَةُ مِنَ الطَّائِفِ، قَالَ: «يُوشِكُ أَنْ تَعْرِفُوا أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ، مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ» ، قَالُوا: بِمَ ذَاكَ؟ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ: «بِالثَّنَاءِ الْحَسَنِ، وَالثَّنَاءِ السَّيِّئِ، أَنْتُمْ شُهَدَاءُ اللَّهِ بَعْضُكُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ»

A pious and good person can admire only the one who has good qualities since a God-fearing person would not flatter an evil person. A pious person gives ruling of being bad only to the one who is really bad since he does not lie to defame a person. One of the evidences that proves that the Khawārij, Mu'tazilah, Jahmiyyah, etc., were devious sects is that the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ rejected them and condemned strongly them.
