Dukhain, the scribe of Sayyiduna Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him), says: I said to Sayyiduna Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him): Some of our neighbors drink alcohol, and I call the police for them so that they may catch them, but he said: Do not do that; rather, admonish and warn them. He did so, but they did not desist. So Dukhain came again and said: Indeed, I have forbidden them, but they did not desist, so now I am going to call the police for them so that they may catch them. Sayyiduna Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Woe to you, do not do that, for I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Whoever conceals the fault of a Muslim, it is as if he has given life to a girl who was to be buried alive. In another narration: He will be like the one who brings a girl buried alive out of her grave alive.
