adab:430

Anas said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was neither coarse nor a curser nor a reviler, He used to say when he wanted to censure someone, 'What is wrong with him? May his brow be dusty!'"

الأدب المفرد:٤٣٠حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا فُلَيْحُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِلاَلُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ

عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ لَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَاحِشًا وَلاَ لَعَّانًا وَلاَ سَبَّابًا كَانَ يَقُولُ عِنْدَ الْمَعْتَبَةِ مَا لَهُ تَرِبَ جَبِينُهُ

The Prophet ﷺ was not one who would abuse (others) or say obscene words, or curse (others), and if he wanted to admonish anyone of us, he used to say: "What is wrong with him, his forehead be dusted!"

لَمْ يَكُنِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ سَبَّابًا وَلاَ فَحَّاشًا وَلاَ لَعَّانًا كَانَ يَقُولُ لأَحَدِنَا عِنْدَ الْمَعْتَبَةِ مَا لَهُ تَرِبَ جَبِينُهُ
