Abu Hurayra reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "The true person must not be a curser."  

الأدب المفرد:٣١٧ – حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ بِلاَلٍ عَنِ الْعَلاَءِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

It does not seem proper for a Siddiq that he should be an invoker of curse.  

مسلم:٢٥٩٧a – حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الأَيْلِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ بِلاَلٍ عَنِ الْعَلاَءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لاَ يَنْبَغِي لِصِدِّيقٍ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَعَّانًا
