It is narrated from Hammam that we were with Hudhaifah, and it was said to Hudhaifah that a man conveys people's words to Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him). So Hudhaifah said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: "The tale-bearer will not enter Paradise."

It is narrated from Sayyidah Asma bint Yazid (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:“Shall I not tell you who are the best among you?”The people said: Yes. He said:“Those people who, when they are seen, Allah is remembered.”He said:“Shall I not tell you who are the worst among you?”The people said: Yes. He said:“Those who spread gossip, those who create discord among friends, and those who seek out faults in innocent people (seekers of sins).”
