عربی (اصل)
حَدَّثَنَا مَحْبُوبُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ خَالِدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ رَجُلًا مَدَحَ صَاحِبًا لَهُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ وَيْلَكَ قَطَعْتَ عُنُقَهُ إِنْ كُنْتَ مَادِحًا لَا مَحَالَةَ فَقُلْ أَحْسَبُهُ كَذَا وَكَذَا وَاللَّهُ حَسِيبُهُ وَلَا أُزَكِّي عَلَى اللَّهِ تَعَالَى أَحَدًا.

Mahbub ibn al-Hasan told us, from Khalid, from Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Bakrah, from his father, that a man praised a companion of his in the presence of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, so he said: "Woe to you, you have broken his neck! If you must inevitably praise, then say: 'I consider him to be such and such, and Allah is his reckoner, and I do not vouch for anyone before Allah, the Exalted.'"
