[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "When a man is asked about his brother, he has two options: if he chooses to remain silent, then he is in the right. And if he chooses to speak, then he is truthful." Abu Bakr Al-Sulaimani informed us, who was informed by Abu Al-Husayn Al-Fasawi, who was informed by Abu Ali Al-Lu'lu'i, who was informed by Abu Dawood. He mentioned it and said that one of them said about the man.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا سُئِلَ الرَّجُلُ عَنْ أَخِيهِ فَهُوَ بِالْخِيَارِ إِنْ شَاءَ سَكَتَ وَإِنْ شَاءَ قَالَ فَصَدَقَ أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ السُّلَيْمَانِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ الْفَسَوِيُّ ثنا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ اللُّؤْلُؤِيُّ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ فَذَكَرَهُ قَالَ وَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا عَنِ الرَّجُلِ
