Ibrahim bin Nshyt إبراهيم بن نشيط · General Behavior (Kitab Al-Adab)

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: When a ruler seeks to make imputations against the people, he corrupts them.

Zayd ibn Wahb said: A man was brought to Ibn Mas'ud. He was told: This is so and so, and wine was dropping from his beard. Abdullah thereupon said: We have been prohibited to seek out (faults). If anything becomes manifest to us, we shall seize it.
