2503. 'Āishah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "I do not like to talk about anyone, even if I were to get this or that." (Sahīh) This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Sahīh. [Abū Ḥudhaifah is from Al-Kūfah, and he is one of the companions of Ibn Mas'ūd, it is said that his name is Salamah bin Ṣuhaibah].
٢٥٠٣ - حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْأَقْمَرِ، عَنْ أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا أُحِبُّ أَنِّي حَكَيْتُ» أَحَدًا، وَأَنَّ لِي كَذَا وَكَذَا. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَأَبُو حُذَيْفَةَ هُوَ كُوفِيٌّ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، وَيُقَالُ اسْمُهُ: سَلَمَةُ بْنُ صُهَيْبَةَ.

The Hadīth instructs us that it is an absolutely unseemly act to imitate or mimic a person's word or deed with the intention of discrediting him. It hurts the sentiments of the man and injures his heart.
