tirmidhi:1929 – Aḥmad b. Muḥammad > ʿAbdullāh b. al-Mubārak > Yaḥyá b. ʿUbaydullāh from his father > Abū Hurayrah

: "Indeed (each) one of you is the reflection of his brother. So if he sees something harmful in him, then let him remove it from him."

الترمذي:١٩٢٩ – حَدَّثَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ مِرْآةُ أَخِيهِ فَإِنْ رَأَى بِهِ أَذًى فَلْيُمِطْهُ عَنْهُ

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى وَيَحْيَى بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ ضَعَّفَهُ شُعْبَةُ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَنَسٍ
