The effects of protecting the reputation of believers

SHAFAQNA – It is narrated from Imam Sajjad (AS) who said: Whoever avoids damaging the reputation of Muslims, Allah (SWT) will forgive his/her blunders on the Day of Judgment [1]. It is also narrated from Imam Sadeq (AS) who said: Allah (SWT) says, whoever humiliates My believing servant has declared war against Me and whoever respects My believing servant will be saved from My Wrath [2].

Another narration said: The person who is present in a meeting and hears words against his (Muslim) brother behind his back and tries to defend him, Allah (SWT) will remove thousand types of mischief of this world and the hereafter from that person [3].
